Eat Your Greens 21 Day Challenge- Benefits Of Leafy Greens


So Why All The Big Fuss About Greens?
Most people do not eat enough green leafy vegetables. Some people don't eat them at all. Their nutritional value however, is valuable to your health and longevity. It's extremely important to understand how you are doing yourself a disservice by not eating them daily. I noticed a major change in my skin after eating fresh leafy greens for an extended period of time.
Here are some interesting facts about greens:
• Greens contain more beta-carotene than carrots
• Greens contain more vitamin C then oranges
• Greens contain more Vitamin E than whole grain wheat
• Greens contain more vitamin B2 than dairy milk
• Greens contain a complete amino acid profile (protein)
Greens provide the best source of the alkaline minerals: calcium, magnesium, and iron as well as many others. These alkaline minerals create the perfect environment for health by cleansing your body of bad bacteria, parasites, yeast, etc.

By eating and including greens in you diet every day, you will experience:

ADHD, Autism, and Toxin Overload In Children
  1. A recent 2010 Study in Pediatrics firmly concluded that there is now a direct link between pesticide consumption and the onset of ADHD. Our children are now exposed to more pesticides and chemicals than ever before. In Dr. Robert Melillo’s new book, Autism, he writes about the role these environmental factors play in preconception and how they may impact your child’s health. For children with Autism or ADHD, greens are of even greater importance. Not only are green leafy vegetables a top pick for their stealthy nutritional content, but they are highly regarded for addressing the digestive and/or toxicity issues which generally occur among children with disorders on the spectrum.
Our liver is powerhouse filter, pivotal in eliminating toxins in the body and crucial for digestion. Many of the children show signs of liver toxicity and impaired digestion. Please understand, liver toxicity does not mean a child has liver disease, but rather, the liver is burdened with toxins that make it a sluggish job When the liver becomes sluggish, it results in an impaired ability to perform its job. Toxins could come from the varnish on your floor, fertilizer sprayed on the lawn, perfumes, dyes, foods, cleaning products and the like.
Aside from toxin removal, the liver plays a huge role in digestion. So, when the liver is compromised, digestion is too. The good news is the liver is amazingly regenerative. So no matter what you may have consumed in the past, it’s possible to start improving the health of your liver by making good choices about what you put in your body.
You can add anything from kale to swiss chard. It does very little to change the flavor and most kids are fine with it.
Add greens to your smoothies: Blend some pineapple, apple, coconut water, and kale for a refreshing, apple-y tasting treat. You can not taste the greens at all. Don’t want to attempt this on your own? There are several brands of already blended bottled smoothies on the market that you can try.

Another important component in green veggies is Chlorophyll.



Adding foods that are high in chlorophyll to your diet will help boost your health. Chlorophyll is a green pigment that is used by plants during photosynthesis to convert light into energy. Since chlorophyll is used by plants to create food, you may wonder why it is healthy for people. The structure of chlorophyll is very similar to hemoglobin, which is a protein in blood used to carry oxygen. This similar structure makes foods that are high in chlorophyll very beneficial. Chlorophyll can help increase red blood cell production, promote wound healing, decrease cholesterol, and even protect the body from cancer and radiation. Because of all of these health benefits, chlorophyll rich foods are often used therapeutically.

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate= Detergent in your toothpaste.

You are seduced on a daily basis by the intoxicating aromas, flashy packaging, and enticing promises of everlasting youth these products offer. But what is the real cost of applying these products to your body? If I were to tell you that your personal care products could be putting you at risk for hair and skin damage, immunological problems, damage to your eyes, and possibly even cancer, would you pay a little more attention to their ingredients? The growing awareness of chemicals in the foods you eat has led many of you to begin reading labels. If you are doing this as part of your regular shopping routine, I commend you, and you will likely live longer for it. But what about the products you are smearing all over yourself? Eye makeup can be absorbed by your highly sensitive mucous membranes. Hair sprays, perfumes and powders can be inhaled, irritating your lungs. Lipstick is licked off and swallowed.

Glycol Propylene-Hazardous to your Health. It's in EVERYTHING!

Image
What is propylene glycol? It is is a chemical found in personal care products that acts as a penetration enhancer that keeps products from melting in heat and/or freezing when it is cold. It is found in items such as shampoo, conditioner, soap, acne treatment, moisturizer, toothpaste, deodorant, nail polish, mascara; basically anything you could possibly use on your body, propylene glycol is in it.  Why should you avoid propylene glycol? For starters it alters the structure of the skin by allowing chemicals to penetrate deep beneath it while increasing their ability to reach the blood stream. Sounds lovely, right? So even if propylene glycol was good for you, it’s main job is to help any other chemicals you come in contact with reach your bloodstream. Who wants to use a chemical designed to help other chemicals penetrate even deeper into your skin? Not me. However, there is even more to it than just that… How Toxic...
