What a wonderful response. Yes, for sure, yo have a raw foodie in the making. This video inspired me to add spinach (or other dark greens) to most of my smoothies, including my superfood smoothies.

Enjoy,

Fantastic video, that vibrant green smoothie looks wonderful – I must be chlorophyll deficient because I want to run to the store and get some kale to try my own! We are pretty buried in snow around here but I was just fantasizing about starting a garden with my 4 year old come spring and she wants to plant spinach… a raw foodie in the making I think.

Debbie,

Yes, certainly age is a factor, especially if you have eaten cooked food for most of your life. Whole, raw foods have the appropriate enzymes in them to digest the food properly. If the food is cooked, then your own digestive enzymes (which are in limited supply) must be used. Once these are used up, digestive problems set in. This is one of the reasons that so many older people benefit so much by raw food to their eating.

Enjoy,
Joy

Thanks so much for the great information. As we get older I have found that it is very important to eat the right foods. The right foods do make a big difference in your engry level.

Thanks again,
Debbie
