If greens make you sick but you want to eat them what do you do?

A number of us were discussing this at a recent gathering. In short: none of us can eat broccoli anymore, and several have other certain veggies they can no longer eat. All of us range in age from 40-55+. Both men and women.

Like a pp suggested, you need to balance your diet. You can’t just eat veggies.

I developed ulcerative colitis and just don’t eat those things anymore. I can handle spinach, cucumber, and a few other raw veggies in small quantities. Other than those I either cook them and blend them into foods (like soups or lasagna) or just have green smoothies.

Try cooking the greens rather than eating them raw.

You have to pair soluble and insoluble fiber together to get the benefits of all the greens without the shits.
