Silver beet and Dutch Carrot Salad

Leafy green vegetables support the health of our bodies in a number of ways.  Dark leafy green vegetables, like spinach, kale and collard greens, are high in calcium, magnesium and B vitamins. The B vitamin group is responsible for the health of our nervous system.It's no surprise that they contain a number of nutrients that are clinically proven to boost our moods and improve vitality.  When a deficiency is present, we may suffer from feelings of depression, irritability and mental fatigue.  The calcium present in leafy greens sends a signal to your brain to release happy neurotransmitters; and with just as much absorbable calcium as dairy, you're guaranteed to feel the good vibes pulsing within.  Magnesium, found abundantly in dark leafy greens, helps to produce and support seratonin in the brain; thus improving our mood. 

Make sure to eat a serving of dark leafy vegetables everyday.
