Our Spring Power Food: Greens!
Can a simple food like “greens” really energize us? As we approach the Spring season, 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 the typical salad greens, but there is a big variety of leafy greens and herbs. 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.
When it comes to “cleansing” our body of toxins, many think this is just for adults, but think again. With all the chemicals and food additives our children come in contact with on a daily basis, it’s important to give them the foods that will help their bodies reduce the effects naturally. So how do they make an impact?
