Greens Can Save Your Life

Today, we prepared 2 nut pates and a green salad with cucumber dressing for the raw potluck. Victoria & Valya Boutenko spoke about the importance of greens in our diet. Greens, not to be confused with vegetables. They had a wealth of information that was just the tip of the iceburg. We are going to start drinking green smoothies everyday for some time. And, mixing with some fruit or fruit juice. No need to worry about food combining of fruits and vegetables... These are not vegetables, but GREENS! Victoria mentioned that when combining vegetables (aka root vegetables, not geens) with fruit, it is the starch in the vegetable... when mixed with the sugar in the fruit... that causes fermentation.
