Comments on: Why Nature Intended Us To Rotate Our Greens http://greensmoothiesblog.com/green-smoothie-rotate/ Sat, 04 Sep 2010 18:14:17 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: emilyb http://greensmoothiesblog.com/green-smoothie-rotate/comment-page-1/#comment-653 emilyb Wed, 02 Jun 2010 19:31:48 +0000 http://greensmoothiesblog.com/?p=173#comment-653 A week with the same green could be too long for some people. To be safe we suggest a minimum of 2 greens per week, and a different 2 greens the next week. Please remember that the more you rotate the more nutrition you gain, and monitor how you are feeling to adjust the variety of greens if necessary.

How often should the greens be rotated? Does it have to be every 2-3 days or can I go as long as a week on the same greens without problems? I've enjoyed reading the many articles on the site. Thanks very much for your help in clarifying the frequency of rotation. Thank you for the fantastic information found here! How often should the greens be rotated?

Many people seem to know about the oxalic acid in spinach yet so one talks about other common foods which contain it like beans or grains. Coffee has a high oxalic acid content and contains no calcium, where as spinach is loaded with calcium which minimizes the risk of loosing this mineral from the body. The amount of Oxalic acid in spinach is very small, however if you don't rotate your greens and use only spinach for many weeks, you may accumulate oxalic acid and experience symptoms of poisoning. The most important thing to remember is ROTATE YOUR GREENS!
