About this episode

Eating leafy greens has been shown to increase collagen production and improve skin elasticity. Which is both good and bad news. Good news because loss of collagen continues every year from our mid to late 20s.Bad news because leafy greens feel more like a chore than a pleasure. But don’t worry, we won’t be talking about salad or massaged kale today.
