Thank you so much for your videos-I am trying to learn about the wild edibles here in Pa- found out I LOVE purslane -delicious!! Thanks for your work- I like the close ups you do and the identifying markers you show of the wild edibles are really helpful!!
@ERICWAGNERSLUCID You are correct many of the dark greens in nature contain oxalic acid which basically turns to salt in the body and can accumulate to dangerous levels. This is why these leaves raw should not be a steady part of your diet. In order to remove the oxalic acid they simply need to be cooked.

Oxalic acid can cause gout:
lambsquarter with 300,000 ppm, purslane at nearly 17,000 ppm, spinach at 6,580 ppm and mustard greens at about 1300 ppm
What's your take on this?
Thanks
(I subbed you)
