Greens

[shaquille]

Thoughts on things like powdered greens, superfoods, spirulina for mixing into fruit smoothies? "Green Super food" "macro life""garden life perfect food" ???

I like them. I use the Innotech Nutrition organic fermented greens.

A good quality greens supplement is a great way to get nutrient dense foods like spirulina, wheat grass etc into your diet when you normally wouldn't eat those foods.

I would always opt for organic though because things like spirulina are imported from China. I've read quite a few consumer report studies showing that imported supplements from China contained heavy metal contaminates

I prefer to eat actual food.

this is the 3rd post today i have responded to about powders

so i ask you again.. use common sense here. if i put spinach and lettuce in front of you would you rather eat those or a powder of each? which do you think the body wants and processes? of course the real thing

also greens powders contain grass, are we cows? humans aren't supposed to consume grass, we don't even have a way to digest it. yet these grass shots are somehow being sold to suckers

having said all that i enjoy drinking a greens powder once a day. just make sure it is high quality, but no it doesn't replace real veggies

I thought this thread was going to be about the other greens...marijuana.
