Chlorophyll in plants is very similar to the hemoglobin in our blood, with one of the main differences being that chlorophyll has a magnesium molecule and hemoglobin has iron.
However, getting enough foods with chlorophyll is one of the most important things in our daily diet, and especially when we are practicing OMAD and only eating one meal each day; so we have to be sure to get plenty of greens in with our meal.
I usually have a salad as a big part of my OMAD meal, and I add a mixture of greens, veggies and protein foods. If it is so cold that I only want hot food, then instead of salad, I will have a vegetable soup made with spinach and kale greens, plus other veggies.
One good way to get your greens if you do not like eating them, is to make a green smoothie, which can have additional nutrition from fresh fruits and also yogurt or kefir for the probiotic benefits.
Here is my salad for today, it has romaine and kale greens, plus carrot, purple onion, kidney beans, peas, and fresh fenugreek sprouts that I made myself.
