If You're Feeling Icky Try This

When my husband first started trying out eating vegan meals on weekdays he noticed he was tired and didn't feel energized like I did.  I asked him what he was eating.  The main thing he left out were the green vegetables.  He was eating corn and whatnot, but if he really wanted to feel great and energized he had to eat the green vegetables.  He's had more energy since eating more of the green veggies. 

My favorites are spinach, broccoli, asparagus, and cabbage.  I add them to a lot of my meals and I also have them as side dishes with a tasty sauce on top.  People who eat meat and dairy would feel healthier if they increased their green veggie intake.  Even the standard food pyramid shows people should be eating at least twice the amount of veggies and fruit than meat and dairy. 

Whether you're vegan, vegetarian, omnivore, or carnivore........you should be eating a lot of the green vegetables if you want to feel your best.
