Eat more Greens !


Eat more greens today. Greens are a nutritional powerhouse full of vitamins and minerals (iron, calcium, potassium, magnesium, vitamins K, C, E, and many of the B vitamins) and are probably the most concentrated source of nutrients. They also contain a variety of phytonutients including beta-carotene, lutein and zeaxanthin, these help protect our cells from damage and our eyes from related eye problems.   Just throw in an extra cup somewhere.  


Greens are almost carb free only containing a very little amount and they are packed with fiber, which makes them very slow to digest in turn keeping you feeling fuller for longer.  Greens in general have very little impact on blood glucose and little to no impact on your waist line theyn even help to contribute to that flat belly I am sure you are all after! Start today by adding a cup of greens to your dinner, then to your lunch, before you know it  you will be reaping all the rewards.
