     I would guess a lot of the sodium is in the celery. - 1/15/11

     yum, I like the way you laid the recipe out, accenting the importence of the low caloric counts and how much power they punch those greens. Still don't understand why people freak out over sodium...hello, natural source of minerals we need. - 2/3/12

     Where does all the sodium come from? - 1/8/11

     The higher sodium levels comes from the Swiss Chard, Spinach, and Celery. But, this has been miscalculated. Actual sodium content for this recipe is 101.05mg. You will not have the fiber if you have a juicer. So, omit it if you're using a juicer. :) - 10/7/14

     Great combination. Somehow I too think the sodium is wrong, but I agree - it is not a big deal as long as you do go overboard - 8/5/12
