Greens Glorious Greens

They may not be the first thing we go for when we're hungry, but they're certainly one of the best. Here's just a few reasons why:

Weight Loss - Yes this magical food can help with weight loss! Generally green foods have a low calorie density, for instance that bowl in the picture would be the same amount of calories as one bite of bread (not slice... a bite!...maybe 2). The volume and regular chewing to eat all of that tells your brain you are more full too.. Does a bite or 2 of bread do that??

Hydration - We know staying hydrated helps our brain and body function properly, and it's a challenge to keep drinking what we need. Greens are packed full of water so helps to keep us hydrated.

Energy - Who needs a Berocca(TM) 'You on a good day', boost your vitamin B group with some luscious green foods. The Vitamin B group is one of the key vitamins that helps energy transfer, it's like the oil to the engine, it helps it run smoothly.

Not forgetting one of the most important benefits of all - Your Instagram profile/Facebook profile to show everyone just how well you're doing and eating healthy... Whilst it may help give us a boost with the praise and acknowledgement from others, you may not realise how this could inspire others to try your recipe or start making changes to their own health and wellbeing, spreading the goodness of greens.
