Greens are high in oxilates I believe, Joe. You may want to look up all veggies that are and do away with them.

Well I'll be. Learnt something. Thanks. I did some quick reading. Yeah not good for inflammation. Collard greens are considered low at 10g per 100g. Mustard greens have 4. Interesting.

There's a reason kids hate most Vegetables...they aren't brain washed that they are good for you.
We'll. They aren't bad for you. Just can aggravate some inflammatory conditions depending how you process them. Most of them provide greater benefits in other areas.
 
The mention of eliminating vegetables from your diets, do you guys have constipation problems eating nothing but meats?? I absolutely suck at drinking water in the amounts I am supposed to. Coffee in the AM then transition over to water through lunch but I find myself never drinking enough.

I think this has more to do with your gut microbiome being healthier from eating zero processed garbage, no sugar, and hydration than anything else. I'm not going to stop eating vegetables as there are too many nutrients to be had from eating good veggies, very few drawbacks, I just like them and have zero desire to take supplements to make up for not eating vegetables. Speaking of supplements, my mission to stop taking pills of every sort seems to be moving along. Been off of Amlodipine (which is a calcium channel blocker and relaxes blood vessels) for a week now. Just a few minutes ago I took my blood pressure after sitting quietly and relaxing for about 5 minutes. 109/68, 106/69, 112/68, 104/63. If this trend continues, I'll be off the Lisinopril, too.

I didn’t eliminate broccoli or green beans, just because I like them. But I certainly consume far fewer than I used to. My wife made the mistake of making herself Brussels sprouts the other day. Wrecked her stomach for a couple days. It’s hard to imagine that vegetables are not all good for you, but when you eat very few of them and then introduce certain ones back in you certainly feel the difference and quickly find out what ones to avoid.
