The power of green, a delicious necessity…
Can leafy greens really energize our day? With spring in full bloom, green is all around us. Not only are the trees, grass, and flowers in bloom, so are the lettuces, basil, turnip greens, bok choy, and many others for our diet. You may be more familiar with salad greens and may think of them as diet or restrictive foods when trying to lose a few pounds. But there is a big variety of leafy greens and they are not just diet food. They have amazing power, come in many different forms, and can turn out delicious recipes. Nature sure planned it perfectly since spring is also a time for cleansing and greens help us do just that.
In Asian medicine green is related to the liver, emotional stability, and creativity, with good reason.
