Pep Up With Wheatgrass

Hippocrates Institute says, “Wheatgrass juice is nature’s finest medicine.” This green juice is like liquid gold. It is a powerful concentrate of liquid nutrient. Two ounces of wheatgrass juice has the nutritional equivalent of five pounds of the best raw organic vegetables you can find. For example, wheatgrass has twice the amount of Vitamin A as carrots and is higher in Vitamin C than oranges! It contains the full spectrum of B vitamins, as well as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium and potassium in a balanced ratio. Wheatgrass is a complete source of protein, supplying all of the essential amino acids, and more. About 20% of its total calories come from protein. This protein is in the form of polypeptides, simple, short chains of amino acids that the body uses more efficiently in the blood stream and tissues.

In addition to flooding the body with therapeutic dosages of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, enzymes, and phytonutrients, wheatgrass is also a powerful detoxifier, especially of the liver and blood. It helps neutralize toxins and environmental pollutants in the body. This is because wheatgrass contains beneficial enzymes that help protect us from carcinogens, including superoxide disumates (SOD), which lessens the effects of radiation and helps us detoxify. It cleanses the body from head to toe of heavy metals, pollutants, and other toxins that may be stored in the tissues and organs. Its powerful nutrients can also prevent DNA destruction and help protect us from the ongoing effects of premature aging and cellular breakdown. Recent research shows that only living foods and juices can restore the electrical charge between the capillaries and the cell walls which boosts the immune system.

Among other things wheatgrass juice is particularly high in chlorophyll. Wheatgrass cleanses and builds the blood due to its high chlorophyll content. Chlorophyll is the first product of light and therefore contains more healing properties than any other element. All life on this planet comes from the sun. Only green plants can transform the sun’s energy into chlorophyll through the process of photosynthesis. . Chlorophyll is known as the ‘life-blood’ of the plants. This important phytonutrient is what your cells need to heal and thrive. Drinking wheatgrass juice is like drinking liquid sunshine.

Chlorophyll carries high levels of oxygen, which is especially powerful in assisting the body to restore abnormalities. The high content of oxygen in chlorophyll helps deliver more oxygen to the blood. Red blood cell counts and oxygen rise very quickly with the regular consumption of wheatgrass juice. This marker is a key indicator of health recovery for abnormalities, ailments, and disease. Oxygen is vital to many body processes, especially for the brain which uses 25% of the oxygen supply. This high oxygen helps support a healthy body.
