Why Green?

By cegan

WhyGreenMy body LOVES green. Green juice. Green smoothies. Big giant-over-sized green salads. But why green? Why does my body love green SO much? Why would your body love green so much too? It’s chlorophyll!  Chlorophyll is the naturally occurring molecule in plants which gives them their gorgeous, vibrant color. Often referred to as “plant blood,” the structure of chlorophyll mirrors the molecular structure of hemoglobin in human blood (hemoglobin = a protein responsible for carrying oxygen in our blood). One difference between the molecular structure of chlorophyll and the molecular structure of  hemoglobin is that chlorophyll has magnesium in the center of the molecule and hemoglobin has iron. Another important difference is chlorophyll continuously produces energy, glucose, where hemoglobin does not naturally produce energy, it consumes it.  This IS why so many plant-based enthusiasts refer to green vegetables, green juices and green smoothies as their “life force energy.” Greens literally deliver life force energy – oxygen, sun energy & earth energy straight into into our body. You might still be saying, what does this really mean?

Chlorophyll heals our body.

Like an IV that delivers healing treatments right into the blood stream, chlorophyll delivers vital “life force” energy straight into our blood, carrying with it oxygen, neutralizing free radicals and a continuous stream of energy. Do you know that disease and disease promoting organisms can NOT live in a an oxygen-rich environment? That’s right, happy, well oxygenated cells are healthy cells.   Chlorophyll regenerates blood cells and produces healthy red blood cells.  This is where green juice, et. al. become a smart daily choice! Whole food sources of chlorophyll rich foods, think GREEN, carry with it boatloads of oxygen for healthy cell function to maintain a balanced alkaline body.

The Key To Detoxing

Adding green vegetables, green juices and green smoothies are a great way to cleanse your body of heavy metals.  The chlorophyll in green vegetables binds with the toxins in your body and assists in escorting them out!  Chlorophyll also stimulates healthy bowel elimination. Now tell the truth, don’t you feel great when you eliminate regularly?  The powerful cleansing benefits of chlorophyll affects our entire body. It promotes healthy intestinal flora and supports an optimal alkaline balance.

Green juices. Green Smoothies. Green vegetables and over-sized salads. Seasonal detoxes. All support our body in healing, rejuvenation overall vibrant health and soaring energy. They are a smart addition to our daily diet.

Inflammation: Your Body’s Defense

By cegan

InflammationInflammation = Weight Gain

“If you don’t address inflammation by eliminating hidden food allergens or sensitivities and by eating an anti-inflammatory diet, you will never succeed at effective and permanent weight loss.” ~ Dr. Mark Hyman

Inflammation is your body’s natural defense mechanism to injury or infection.  The red, swollen response turns into a health concern when your body remains in a state of inflammation. Chronic inflammation causes or negatively triggers a range of prevailing health concerns from heart disease and cancer, to obesity, arthritis and digestive disorders.

Stress, lack of exercise, a diet high in sugars, refined flours, processed foods and trans fats also contribute to inflammation and auto-immune disease.  Hidden or chronic infections with viruses, bacteria, yeasts or parasites, and environmental or food allergens that you may even be unaware of also send your body into a state of defense.  Mold toxins, allergens, mercury, and pesticides a trigger inflammation.

If you are looking for a lifestyle change that will rejuvenate, revitalize and renew your health from the inside out, one very effective approach is to  identify which  foods and toxins sensitize your body.  By taking on an elimination diet and incorporating a primarily plant-based diet, you will find that you not only have less inflammation and belly bloat, but more energy too!
