“Greens” is generic name for either green leafy vegetables or supplements made from the green vegetables.

These supplements are sold in the Health Food Stores in a form of veggie capsules, tablet, powder or liquid.

Greens are recommended when your diet does not include enough vegetables or during winter and spring when not much of the local greens are available.

Greens are very good antioxidant and provide you with extra energy.

 

How to take?

There are different ways to take your greens. You can add them to water or juice. They can be part of your smoothie.

What and where to buy?

When selecting greens make sure there are no artificial flavorings and sweeteners.

There are a lot of greens around; the one that I really like is Organic Greens & Reds by Douglas Lab.
