Eating your veggies?
Have you added the latest
trendy health food to your
diet? Maybe it's time to try kale
which is packed with protein,
vitamins A, C and K. It's also
beneficial as an anti-oxidant
and an anti-inflammatory. But
there's just one problem for
some: they don't like the taste
of the fiber-rich leafy green. A
great way to introduce kale into
your diet
- and your weight
loss routine, as the vegetable is
considered to be "negative calo-
ries," meaning your body burns
more calories digesting it than
it takes in
- is by adding it to
a smoothie. So, get out your
blender, add some kale to fresh
or frozen fruit, and enjoy fuller
health benefits.
