Greek Salad

This colorful salad is a sensory delight for the eyes and taste buds. It’s beautiful, delicious, and aromatic. Enjoy it with the olives and avocado for a more filling option, or enjoy it without them for a fat-free meal that’s also satisfying.

Tomatoes harness critical micronutrients, phytochemicals, vitamins, and minerals to support all organs of the body.

Cucumbers’ traces of the amino acids glycine and glutamine, combined with their extreme and highly active content of enzymes and coenzymes, plus their abundance of more than 50 trace minerals, make them an excellent delivery system for neurotransmitter chemicals. This is great news if you’re dealing with anxiety or other neurological conditions.
