Leafy Greens and Heart Disease

Leafy Greens have numerous health benefits

A new study out of Harvard University shows that diets high in the mineral magnesium seem to reduce the incidence of sudden cardiac failure – at least in women. So where do you get magnesium in your diet? Greens. Magnesium is the central element in the chlorophyll molecule which gives plants their green color.

So eat more salads and green smoothies and give your heart the gift of health.
