Kale, when eaten too often, actually becomes too much (toxic)for your system. It can make parts go numb too. I felt numb in my face once. It is the properties of kale and any green in excess....they have small amounts of toxins that build up in your body when eaten repeatedly.

Deer and wild animals graze a lil bit on each plant. This reduces the risk of toxicity as well as not wiping out the plants. We do well to heed their example! Rotate your greens!

Hope it improves for you!

Rawpaw...not my words but Victoria Boutenkos in her Green For Life Book. Yes get a second opinion. The first one I gave was from Victoria....if you need a second one..heehee

Greens are positively safe! They must be rotated is all.

I have had my lips tingle, my whole side of my face feel numb. Tis real.
