I'm going to give you a little insider info on the leafy green scenario, okay?
There's a difference between eating leafy greens as a food group.
Eating it as a food group.
There's a big difference with that, okay?
Like the spinach soup where you're doing cups and cups of it and blending it up.
And that's the medical medium of spinach soup.
See, no one knew to eat it in that way years ago.
And I know that gets some people upset.
They'll be like, I've heard about leafy greens.
Well, there was the iceberg lettuce and romaine lettuce.
That's what people ate.
And that's what they ate 35 years ago.
And 30, 35 years ago, it was iceberg and it was romaine lettuce,
and it was a handful on the side of a meal,
you know, or a little salad or a side salad.
If someone was into health, they would eat a little bit more iceberg lettuce or romaine, right?
Maybe a little spinach, but it'd be some few spinach leaves.
Someone would get a container of spinach or a bag of spinach,
and they would have a little bit of spinach, right, in a salad.
it, but I'm talking about using it as an actual food group, leafy greens. That was not in anybody's
vocabulary years ago. I had took a lot of years to teach people about that. I know a couple of you
are like, wait a minute, I've heard about leafy greens. I've been in the health realm. Well,
it's funny because, okay, I can go back to 20 years ago. I can go back to 25 years ago
and the people in the health realm that are still around now, they didn't even know leafy greens
existed. They knew mustard greens existed. They knew radish greens existed. They didn't know it
could be consumed as a medicine, as a food group and a larger amount of it. So it was, it was,
so if someone had mixed greens, that's a big difference between actually doing leafy greens
as a food group, doing large amounts of it for their mineral salts. And that's medical medium
information. So it's not like, Oh, I started at leafy greens. What is he crazy? What do you mean?
everybody was eating greens. No, they still don't even do it now. People don't do it now.
I'm talking about anywhere from fruitarians to vegetarians to macrobiotic people,
blood type people. I don't care whatever it is, diet you subscribe to, Mediterranean diet,
leafy greens weren't a big aspect of that meal. It wasn't like lots of spinach. It wasn't salads
of all of that, you know? And when I pushed the kale, the whole kale thing really hard
back in 2000, really hard.
Lectured about it, taught about it.
It eventually spawned it on in LA
because that's what it did.
I taught it to celebrities.
I taught it to people, you know, who's who.
I lectured about it, all about kale,
all about the benefits, all about kale as a leafy green.
It started a movement just like you see celery juice now,
like the same way medical medium information
started the celery juice movement.
I started the kale movement too.
So that became then kale chips and everything else.
And it was a lot of work.
It was a lot of teaching.
It was talking to thousands of people, talking to thousands of doctors, talking to celebrities,
talking to celebrities in LA, talking to New York, and teaching them about the kale.
And that finally spawned on the whole kale push.
This medical meme information spawned on and pushed the whole celery juice movement.
So it's not like I didn't create a leafy green.
No, not at all.
They were there.
But instead of having one dandelion green or a little bit of cilantro or a mixed salad with a few things in it and a little parsley,
what I was teaching people, and what I'm doing now, you guys, every day, is use it as medicine and have a lot of it.
Put it in the heavy metal detox smoothie, a nice big hunk of it.
Have it on, make a salad out of the leafy greens, but really, really use them if you can.
And I know some people say, I can't eat leafy greens. I can't eat raw food. I can't eat salads.
You'll see people say that, right? And I understand because their insides are sensitive
because they're inflamed. So when a leafy green starts to massage your intestinal tract and
starts to move through you, it rubs inflamed intestinal linings. And when it does that,
you feel it. So then you're like, whoa, I can't do a leafy green. I can't do lettuce,
meaning I can't do spinach. I can't do cilantro. I can't do a lot of parsley.
And what's really happening is it's massaging your inflamed intestinal lining that's inflamed
from bugs and streptococcus E. coli and staph and everything else and C. diff. And, you know,
and microorganisms that aren't good, but it's inflamed at viruses. They inflame the intestinal
tract like colitis, IBS, the streptococcus, and then the greens move through and they start rubbing
and that's what happens. And you feel it and you think I'm not digesting this green,
I'm not digesting it, but you are digesting it.
