Although we think we are, and we act as if we are, human beings are not natural carnivores. When we kill animals to eat them, they end up killing us, because their flesh, which contains cholesterol and saturated fat, was never intended for human beings, who are natural herbivores.

Banana Milkshake!
It tastes SO GOOD.. like the real thing! But healthier! And trust me, all you taste is creamy banana goodness. ^__^
1 ripe banana (preferably frozen but I ran out so I just used a non-frozen one)
2/3 cup almond milk (or other plant milk)
Large handful of spinach
1 tbsp hemp seeds
1 scoop of Amazing Grass Green Superfood Powder
1 ice cube
Blend, blend, blend!
Enjoy. <3
Which has more protein – oatmeal, ham, or a tomato? The answer is that they all have about the same amount of protein per calorie. The difference is, the tomato and the oatmeal are packaged with fiber and other disease-fighting nutrients, and the ham is packaged with cholesterol and saturated fat…I see about twenty to thirty new patients per week, and I always ask them, “Which has more protein – one hundred calories of steak or one hundred calories of broccoli?” When I tell them it’s broccoli the most frequent response is “I didn’t know broccoli had protein in it.” I then ask them, “So where did you think the calories in broccoli come from? Did you think it was mostly fat, like an avocado, or mostly carbohydrate, like a potato?”…When you eat large quantities of green vegetables you receive a considerable amount of protein.
