The power of wild greens #5

Today I found a really interesting information. I am pretty sure that many of you heard that before but anyway: Did you know that stinging nettles have: 30times more Vitamin C 20 times Provitamin A 40(!!!!) times more Calcium 25 times more magnesium and 50 times more iron than an ordinary organic lettuce. When you compare 100gr ordinary lettuce with 100gr malve you get the result that lettuce has: 11mg magnesium-malve 71mg 13 mg Vitamin C- malve 178mg and 600mg protein-malve 7200mg(!!!!!!!) Isn't that amazing? Nature is truly perfectly designed for us.You find everything you need in the green goodies and the best thing is it is free! We try to have wild greens in our diet on a daily basis. You can find a lot of mild green so that even children will eat them. Did you know that you can eat the leaves of most of the trees as well? And they are delicious. When you watch an ape you find that it eats green leaves with its fruits. An easy way to do that is for example to eat the leaves which belong to the fruit. For example when you pick your strawberries have the leaves as well! You soon find  that it tastes really good together. And that is what our children like- Jaro for example loves to eat nettles with his carrots or apples! Today we had: green smoothie with some spinach and a lot of freshly picked greens from our garden carrots and avocadoes yumpot a little watermelon sushirolls with carots tomatoes cucumber sprouts lettuce green smoothie
