Too much asparagus? Is it possible?

I have way too many plants, I eat a minimum of 20 stalks a day, mostly for breakfast. Are there any bad effects from eating too many of these tasty beauties?

Update:

Roz, weapons grade urine is a side benefit, It keeps the groundhogs, foxes and deer away. This is part of my morning picking, no one in my circle likes asparagus. I also eat peas, beans, onions and carrots while I'm picking. A good breakfast but I eat a lot of asparagus.

Update 2:

! -- Not much meat goes into me, I like veggies far more than fruit (too sweet, usually) though I have many varieties. Most of the stuff I eat raw. Laziness, not a choice. I eat my fill as I pick.

    AG, LOLZ @ "weapons grade urine" :))

    Gosh, I wish you had some of my asparagus patch...I'm not so fond of the stuff.

    I don't think it's probable that you're consuming too much of it, though your possible lack of protein concerns me. Be sure to include some nuts and/or legumes in your daily intake :)

    Yes, that should work just fine. Wow! Hey, that would be a great way for parents to get their children to eat more veggies. I've always liked Asparagus tho. You could pre-boil the asparagus so that they would be cooked but still on the firm side, then add a thin/long piece of Monterey Jack cheese on top of the Asparagus then wrap them both with a strip of pastry dough. Kids usually love anything with a bit of cheese in it.

    don't use precooked, it will be too soggy. if its fresh try it but try sealing it in the pastry, bake 350/325 and while its baking make a sauce for on top.even try adding something else inside with the veggie, for more flavor, maybe sausage that's been cooked , and drained. this is just off the top of my head but sounds kinda good! (lol) PS maybe a mushroom soup sauce or a cheese sauce, not too heavy though.

    According to Answers.com:

    "Technically, no. No long term affects will harm your health. But I reccommend you don't eat it to excess because your urine will turn green and have a rancid stench. Also if eaten in excess stomach cramps may occur as well as inflammation of the intestines. "

    The MOST important thing is to eat naturally..without medicines, chemicals, "starving" your self etc.

    first, it would be best for you to eat as healthy as possible..this will also help you considerably to lose weight gradually and naturally..

    eat fresh fruits, vegetables, drink plenty of WATER..avoid all cokes, caffeines, smoking, alchohol etc. as these also add weight as well as they contain chemicals which disturb your natural bio rythmns as well as brain chemistry. try not to eat too much meat, and the meat you should eat should be "lean meat" such as steamed chicken and rice, or steamed fish with rice..and vegetables,, this should be your staple diet rice and vegetables with fruits..AVOID "JUNK FOOD" and "Fast Food" as this type of food is very unhealthy, lacking in vitamins really and has plenty of fattening molecules which make one gain weight and is very bad for overall health.

    if you snack,, try fruits with yogurt or fruit yogurt and nuts.. nuts are very healthy for your body .and contain proteins.

    go for walks every evening or morning or whenever you get time each day for 1 hour or 2 hours..make this somewhere you enjoy walking even if you have to drive a bit to there..and make this a daily routine..you will enjoy it once you get into it ..and it makes you feel great after..just walking for 1 hour or 2 hours.

    if you do this..every day for one month ..you should lose around 10 pounds (.714 stone) per month until you get to your natural healthy weight.. look up on the internet for an idea of what your weight for your height should be ..and when you get to this weight,,your body will look very nice and you will feel very good.

    10 pounds (.714 stone ) each month in 3 months you should lose 30 pounds (2 stones, 2 pounds)..for sure...but no junk food and dont drink alcohol or smoke, dont eat junk..just healthy food with vitamins and walking 1 hour or 2 hours every day..and drink plenty of water..this is guaranteed way to lose weight naturally and for good, if you stick to this, which you should,,as it makes you feel so much more positive due to the vitamins and lack of chemicals making you feel depressed...

    btw, forgot to mention,,just in case you dont know how to really make healthy meals..buy a "food steamer" at your local deparment store..they are very cheap and work very well..as well as buy a "rice cooker" which is also very cheap..eating rice is a great way to get your necessary carbs "healthy carbs" to lose weight and has lots of natural energy inside. you can buy asian rice at most large supermarkets or if you have a local oriental market..they sale quality asian rice.. thai or indian rice is good "jasmine rice".. buy corn or canola oil to sprinkle on vegetables or rice before steaming to add to taste as well as you can buy several nice spices like "cumin" or "Curry powders", etc.just sprinkle on the vegetables before steaming to give nice taste.

    drink "Green Tea" as this is very healthy and helps burn extra fat faster...you can buy quality green tea at most oriental shops or large supermarkets as well
