Dr Jockers Comments:
I love a colorful salad that is full of life. It is best to get all of these ingredients in the organic variety. Spinach, bell peppers & cucumbers all contain a thin skin are highly sprayed with toxic pesticides that are highly carcinogenic unless they are organic. If organic is not an option be sure to spray these with white vinegar or a natural veggie wash and scrub real well to get as many chemicals off as possible.
The cheese must be organic and grass-fed. Non-organic cheese contains massive loads of environmental toxins while typical organic is from grain-fed cows and contains high levels of omega 6 fats.
Grass-fed raw cheese is clean of all environmental toxins and is loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, CLA, magnesium and vitamin k2. The protein is of exceptional quality containing all the essential amino acids and branched chain amino acids including leucine which is especially important for healthy muscular system and metabolism.
