The Need For Greens
Article by Amy White. Orlando, Florida.

alkaline foods list chart greens Do you ever find yourself craving green foods? Your body is probably telling you, “I need magnesium!”

Magnesium is America’s most deficient mineral because of our Standard American Diet (SAD), which is high in processed foods and low in natural whole foods.

The processing depletes natural foods of its nutrients and then chemicals and toxins are added as preservatives.

See Acid Alkaline Foods List Chart above.

The average person in America eats too many processed foods and too little whole natural foods.

An easy way to compare processed versus whole is to ask yourself, “Does this food grow, swim, fly or walk?” You can’t pick a donut off a donut tree, but you can pick a pear or pull a carrot from the ground.

Or, ask yourself, “Did Mother Nature make it or did a machine alter it?” Eating chicken is whole and eating a chicken pot is processed.

Green vegetables are high in many wonderful nutrients, such as calcium, magnesium, iron, potassium, phosphorus, zinc and Vitamins A, C, E and K. They are full of fiber, which helps purify our bodies.

Nutrients in plants are called phyto-nutrients. These antioxidants are very powerful.

Here are benefits we receive from eating dark green veggies...

  • blood purification
  • cancer prevention
  • heart disease prevention
  • improved circulation
  • promotion of healthy intestinal flora
  • clears congestion, especially in the lungs and reduces mucus
  • gives subtle, light and flexible energy
  • lifts the spirit and eliminates depression
  • increases collagen in the skin to prevent wrinkles

Eating greens can be associated with “lightening up the diet” and spring time, but there are heavier greens that are also suitable to eat in the fall and winter such as kale, collards, mustard greens, brussel sprouts, broccoli, broccoli rabe, cabbage (don’t forget sauerkraut) and chards.

Cooked greens are better for the body during Fall and Winter. Eating raw greens are better for the body during Spring and Summer.
