Eat green – The best health foods on your plate are green and raw. In order to provide our cells with the best possible supply, we need the right building materials. Our blood is the most important organ and healthy blood can also build a healthy body. Why? Blood cells become body cells.
Chlorophyll – The blood of green plants
The role of blood as a transporter of oxygen and nutrients is well known. However, our blood can do more than just that. For example, bone cells, brain cells, muscle cells, skin cells or heart cells are formed from blood cells.
You also have to be aware of one thing: our diet, which is now referred to as the usual diet, has not been around for long and is relatively new. We grew up with it and are therefore no longer surprised by the rather strange, rather unnatural food. Whether this is conducive to a vital life remains to be seen.
But how do you transform your blood into top quality?
There is a substance that has the special property of transforming the quality of human blood into a healing serum within a short period of time.
Chlorophyll – The green plant sap contains everything we need and everything that contributes to health. Few people are aware of the potential of green plants. Accordingly, they are rarely eaten. The quality of the entire body and performance depends on one's preference or dislike for green plants. Green plants contain a lot of chlorophyll, which has a detoxifying and blood-building effect in the body. In addition, these are real vitamin bombs, promote digestion and help compensate for nutritional deficiencies.
The plant greens are also one of the most alkaline foods ever. Nothing else can produce blood as optimally as green plants.
In addition to chlorophyll, there are many other reasons why green vegetables end up on your plate more often and why you should eat green.
Benefits of Food Rich in Chlorophyll:
- Green food makes you awake and alive!
- bitter substances
- stimulate the liver and stimulate digestion and blood circulation
- have a blood-purifying effect and keep viruses, bacteria and fungi away
- promote the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and iron
- stimulate the production of saliva, bile and gastric juices
- curb appetite and prevent obesity
- Green plants are low in calories, but rich in vitamin C, B vitamins, vitamin K (important for bone metabolism, in conjunction with vitamin D) and beta-carotene.
- Green vegetables contain important minerals such as magnesium, calcium and iron.
- It also contains plenty of secondary plant substances and antioxidants.
So how do you manage to eat more greens?
Focus on wild herbs, green leafy vegetables, microgreens, seedlings - but also roots, buds and fruits.

1. Use sprouts and microgreens
Above all, use the potential of germinated seeds and grains. These high-quality power plants grow within a few days at home in the living room or on the windowsill. This means you can easily grow your lettuce without even having to go to the store. And all the fun is absolutely fresh and home-picked. Thanks to their taste, sprouts bring a welcome change to the kitchen and are bursting with vitamins and secondary plant substances. In these development phases the plant has the most bioavailable nutrients and the highest life energy, which is transferred directly to you. And after a while you will really feel what a difference it makes. Absolutely awesome!
2. Green smoothies or juices
There are a variety of preparation options - once you get used to the green color, you will love and appreciate it. Combine vegetables with fresh sprouts and herbs, according to your taste. You can also combine the green plants with fruit. However, be careful not to make your smoothies too fruit-heavy or sweet.
Sprouts, microgreens and young grasses are ideal as a base. For example buckwheat , sunflower , broccoli , arugula , red clover , alfalfa , chia grass or linseed grass . It's best to supplement the whole thing with herbs and spices. Some of them can also be grown as sprouts to further increase the yield of vital substances. Fennel, fenugreek or basil are well suited for this.
Now the green smoothie becomes a pleasure!
3. Upgrade familiar recipes
Start small. There is no dish that you cannot enhance with green vegetables. Experiment and use the selection of different green plants. Add a handful of rocket microgreens, broccoli Microgreen or fenugreek microgreens to your Microgreen .
The beauty is: health is a choice. Set another small building block every day and make the right decision.
On my website I share my passion for sprouts and microgreens. It is important to me to bring the young plants to every plate and to every household, because everyone deserves to have this knowledge and use it for themselves. It's clear to me that no matter what diet you choose, sprouts and microgreens are the key to a holistic, healthy diet. For each!
