Tim Friese Oct 7, 2014:
Re: 'living' The idea of 'living greens' here is greens that still have roots and are sold in either water or soil. This is in contrast to the idea that once vegetables are picked and cut off from the plant they are dead or dying.

الخضراوات الطازجة ذات اللون الأخضر

Living Green

All green all the time. 100% vegetables. No carrots or beets. This program was created for the detox lovers out there and advocates of green juice. Super alkalizing!

neutral Tim Friese : "ذات اللون الأخضر" seems very wordy to me. Could it be made shorter and sharper?

الخضراوات الورقية الخضراء الحية/الطازجة

On second thought, I realized that ورقية is needed in the Arabic because we mainly mean leafy greens when we say 'greens' in English. Wikipedia identifies greens as "Leaf vegetables such as collard greens, mustard greens, spring greens, winter greens, spinach, etc" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greens

A google image search also confirms that we are talking about leafy greens exclusively when we say 'greens': https://www.google.com/search?q=greens&newwindow=1&rlz=1C1CH...
