Katie, Rex knows what he's talking about. I will say that if you don't have filtered water yet, then tap water will work ok ( store bought has solvents in it I read somewhere) till you can do better. And of course organic greens are better, but non-organic will help if you can't get organic. I'm sure spinach is wonderful, but I can't stand a lot of it. I do know from my mother's experience that green drink does wonders. In her early 50' she said she felt better than she did when she was 17. She is now 85 and still getting around. She used mostly lettuces; it was all she had. best wishes pj
