powders and juices are
an extremely effective way of boosting the body's immune system
to fight against and recover from illnesses and ailments. Wheatgrass
is a great source of beta carotene, contains most of the B
vitamins and vitamins C, E, H and K, and also contains over
90 different minerals and 19 amino acids. It also contains
several active enzymes which play a major role in breaking
down fats, undertaking biological functions and assist hugely
in weight loss.Of the 90 minerals found,
many of these are very alkalising and include calcium, magnesium,
potassium and iron.
Many
of the health benefits of wheatgrass stem from the fact that it is
a living food. Being highly anti-bacterial, consuming wheatgrass
will help to alkalise and detoxify the lymph and blood cells, helping
the body to rebuild and transport toxins out of the body quickly
and effectively.
Again,
coming back to the chlorophyll content
of wheatgrass - this can protect the body
from carcinogens more effectively than any other food. Studies
conducted on animals have shown that wheatgrass consumption
has reduced the absorption of a number of very serious carcinogens
whilst strengthening cells, detoxifying the liver and neutralising
polluting elements within the blood. |
Wheat
and a number of other grasses are clearly very beneficial to
the body and there is a very strong case for making them a part
of our daily health routines. There are two principle ways to
do so:
- buy a growing kit/ freshly grown grass and juice
- purchase an organic
grass supplement
Both have
their pro's and con's, however, you do not have to do one to get
the benefits of the other.
