Spring gets us thinking about “spring cleaning” whether it is home, career or our body. Our ancestors could not go to the local store to purchase their food. Instead they were “Seasonal Eaters”, putting away food for the winter. The availability of food corresponded with what our bodies required to be healthy. Foods such as root vegetables, squash and seeds are rich in minerals and stable vitamins to sustain us throughout the winter. Spring is when our bodies start to release the stores of toxins from the dense foods and nature provides us with fresh greens to help detoxify our bodies naturally.
