I think the sugar in the fruit holds back the digestion even tho the fruit
has more fiber. Especially berries...... The greens have a faster time
out of the stomach.... No appreciable sugar. Another thought - The fruit
might have a higher water content, diluting the digestive enzymes. Just a
thought. There's GOT to be some reason why Anchells way works.......
sigh.....
