The Power of Raw Vegetables
Recently my nutritionist – a health
freak if ever there was one – suggested
I eat raw vegetables like cabbage, kale,
asparagus, brussel sprouts, cauliflower
and broccoli, all of the cruciferous family,
all packed with vital antioxidants,
vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals
and fibre, (relieving weekly straining
bouts of constipation.) As for results
he assured me with an assured smile
I’d be stronger and feel years younger,
though vouched cautiously I could expect
a few typical but minor side-effects,
but easily adjusted to, notably when
spring sets in and my ears grow like spires
and to everyone’s amazement I start
hopping about, my libido supercharged
after years of living celibate! – And as
he sees me out with an aside and wink
he says: You'd do well to forewarn the wife.
