Mary Jo,

I'm am sitting here sipping my Brassica Tea (lemon flavored). I LOVE this tea! It is a little pricey, but well worth it. I now order a case at a time.

Thanks for the tip!!!

Gerri

Me too Gerri. Also, just had my healthy pinch of brocco sprouts. Just grab a pinch - rinse and pop in my mouth.

Happy sipping....

You are right Christie. Alot of cancer patients use wheatgrass. In addition to all the noted health benefits it also gives people an extra serving of veggies.
