We figured the best time to consume your greens!

Hi,

I recently devoured this book and finally found the best time to consume Daily Supergreens. While there are plenty of sound suggestions out there, I find this to be the most compelling thus far.

Answer: before your heaviest meal or before a meal that’s lacking in vege.

Extra tip: if you can, eat in this order: fiber first, protein and fat second, starch last.

Why?

– Slows down digestion: Fiber helps slow down the digestion of other nutrients, which can prevent blood sugar spikes and crashes. It creates a barrier that slows down the absorption of nutrients in the small intestine.

– Increases satiety: Foods high in fiber can make you feel fuller for longer periods, which can help control appetite and prevent overeating.

– Supports healthy gut bacteria: Fiber is essential for feeding the beneficial bacteria in your gut, which can have a positive impact on your overall health.

A study has also been done on eating in this order: two groups were asked the same amount of food. One group was told to eat in the order above, whereas the other group was not told to eat in any order. Result: the first group managed to lose or maintain weight, while the second either maintained or gained weight.

So if you’re having trouble curbing cravings or losing weight, we hope this can help.
