What's the saying....Mom knows best....? I've been the "kale queen" for the past six years, religiously making and drinking blended green smoothies full of kale and fruit every day. My health did improve a lot during this time. I was convinced that kale was the answer for me and everyone else. (BTW, I neglected to mention it took my stomach 3 months to adjust to the raw greens, unlike the normal two weeks that rawbees preach.)
My nutritionist warned me against eating such a large quantity of raw kale; and no matter how I phrased it my mother was adamant that kale was not for her. Well, would you believe that kale is actually not that great for me (and my mom), personally? After starting a program I learned about in September, ph360.me, I discovered that it can be hard on my personal digestive tract based on my ancestry, genetic make-up, and physical features. I have since replaced my kale smoothies with spinach. Check out Recipes to make your own spinach smoothies.
Here's a great article that talks about why some wholesome, organic foods may not be good for everyone: Is your healthy Food Poisoning You? So, I guess I must admit....Mom, you were right.
