As I continue on my raw path, and I coming more and more to appreciate the importance of GREENS in my diet. Lately my favorites are arugula and spinach, which I put in a blender with my fresh-made veggie juice. I love raw soups too!

I used to do the bluegreen algae but ran out a year or two ago and I really miss it.

Would love to hear others favorites, stories, etc. about greens!

I have not made any soups (although I did make a green smoothie that I ate as soup because it was too thick). I would love to know what soups you make. And is the algae expensive? People recommend algaes and chlorophyll, but I wonder if I can even afford it.

I am so hooked on green smoothies. I have chronically low blood iron. Last time it tested at 0. So I have been drinking about 2 quarts of green smoothies a day. My brain fuzz has cleared up and the change in my hair and nails is phenomenal. I am stronger and faster. My body virtually vibrates with energy. I will never go back to so much fruit. My body doesn't do well on too much sugar even if it is fruit sugars. So I agree with you totally, greens are the way to go.
