Akin's Natural Foods Dietitian Mary Ann O'Dell uses a fast easy way to get all of your nutrients from vegetables and fruits. "Green foods can be vegetables like spinach and broccoli, but also include other nutrient dense plants, including wheat grass, barley grass, and spirulina algae," she said. "They are carefully processed into fresh juices, powders, capsules or tablets. While we all know that we are supposed to eat our fruits and veggies, there are some days that just isn’t happening as it should. Greenfoods offer the perfect solution for eating on-the-run or filling in the gaps where the current diet is lacking," O'Dell said. "Greenfoods are available in powders and supplements, as well as in bars and shakes. There are even formulas specifically for kids. They are a great way to boost nutrition in a convenient, easy form."
