I've been reading some have horrible reactions to greens. What is it about the greens? What about blending them for green smoothies?

I started eating iceberg lettuce 4 weeks out and other veggies 6 to 8 weeks out and have had no issues. I actually had a delicious salad for lunch today. I can eat a good bit of salad at 4 months out--about 1 cup. that's because it has a high Water content. You could blend the greens as well.

I never eat iceberg or pale greens of any kind - but kale and bok choy and spinach I take with ease now, although it tooks several months to do so. Just be very sparing and cautiously repetitive when adding new foods, try adding them one at a time. It really really, super really helps isolate food issues.
