Dr. Berg talks about why adding fat to your salad and vegetables is vital. Vegetables and salad contain phytonutrients, including carotinoids and flavonoids. Cartinoids (over 600) are fat-soluble, which means adding fat to the diet will help your absorption of these phtyonutrients. Lutein and Zeaxanthin are 2 vital plant based chemicals that help the eye (retina and macula) and brain and adding more kale to the diet will help you - however, adding fat (coconut oil and olive oil) will increase it even more. If you do not have a gallbladder, adding some bile salts (Gallbladder Formula) will also help.
