Wheatgrass is amazing!!!

“Most people think wheatgrass tastes NASTY.... Personally, I think it tastes like green beans and I actually really like it;-)  Either way, it is one of the top 5 most beneficial foods you can consume. 

A few years ago, a friend of mine gave me a $30 gift card for Jamba Juice (not sure why) but when I went in to get my first smoothie, the guy recommended trying a shot of wheatgrass.  So, I did.  He warned me that a lot of people get nauseous after their first shot, so I was kinda questioning why I would take it. 

 

I later learned that one of the reasons for this is because of the enzyme content of the juice, which for some people sets the body into overdrive.  Light-headedness and nausea can be experienced from this cleansing and the need not just do it once! These upsets last only a short time and will decrease with increased juicing.  He also recommended an orange juice chaser;-) 

After my first shot, I immediately felt revitalised, so I decided to come back every day until my gift card was gone.  During the 2 weeks that I had my daily wheatgrass shot, my appearance improved noticably, and coupled to a better diet I lost 10 pounds.  Your body can feel full after drinking it because it has so many nutrients and it clears out any build-up of toxins in the digestive system) and got twice as much done every day because I had so much more energy.  The most effective way to consume it is freshly juiced but powders can be more convenient and cost-effective, although there is debate about the efficacy."

 

 

I'm sure that, despite desiring to believe it, wheatgrass juice, nor anything else in the wide world will of its own cure everything! That's simply too far-fetched, not least because of the base condition that many people are suffering from which they desire or need to be cured.

 

However, in our world of mutilated food supplies, and a degraded environmental origin for much of the food, which we all eat in the earnest hope that it will provide us with health enhancing nutrients, I'm absolutely certain that young plants, fed a complete balance of nutrients is a jolly good way to enhance anybody's diet. Therefore, I've no doubt that wheatgrass juice is a great thing, despite my slightly vested interest. I am equally certain that broccoli sprout juice is a wonderful juice and food, especially for those suffering some of life's most rapacious and threatening challenges, not mentioning anything beginning with C because we are legally barred from making any health claims that anything that is food could conceivably be a good thing!!! I know, hard to believe, but such is the power, ill applied control and dimwittedness of a few these days.

 

Funny old world we live in, and the way we allow it to be run!  I prefer to take charge of what's happening to my body as far as possible, and source and feed it the most natural possible diet.
