One study showed that an increment of one daily serving of green leafy vegetables, lowered the risk of cardiovascular disease by 11 percent. In the Adventist health study, the frequent consumption of green salads by African-Americans was associated with a substantially lower risk of mortality.

I've been using leafy greens from our garden in green smoothies, which are a great way to get these into your diet.

Hi to all,
apart from being good for health green leafy vegetables are rich in iron also.
