Spring Greens: Cultivated, Wild and Free
Saturday, March 28th, 2009Leafy greens gently cleanse the liver, which is essential to health in Spring. Our livers become burdened with alcohol, stress, poor diet, pesticides and pollutants.

Your liver keeps your hormones balanced, so greens help your hormones as well.

Reactions to properly prescribed dugs kill over 100,000 people per year in the U.S. Mistakes and overdose kill another 100,000. Doctors and drugs are considered the third leading caused of death in this country, according to the American Medical Association.
