In this Corona age, remembering any product that will boost your immunity and health is important. We may not have many commercial vitamin boosters that are reasonably priced but there are products available that are often better than lab manufactured vitamins. One of those products is wheatgrass.
The first time I tried it, after only 3 doses (150ml total) taken in a day the texture of my skin is awesome! Just waiting to see the wrinkles disappear!
The secret to its nutritional benefits is that wheatgrass is rich in chlorophyll. Chlorophyll can be extracted from many plants, but wheatgrass is superior because it has been found to have over 100 elements needed by man. If grown in organic soil, it absorbs 92 of the known 115 minerals from the soil Here are some of the benefits of wheatgrass.
Therapeutic Benefits of Wheatgrass
Other than the fact that wheatgrass has been used successfully to manage diabetes and cancerous tumors below are further details on how you can use wheatgrass to improve your health.
1. Wheatgrass is the young wheat plant and has 13 vitamins, 10 minerals, 17 amino acids, and more than a hundred enzymes. Wheatgrass has the highest level of alkaline minerals than any other food. This means that wheatgrass will make your blood alkaline. Processed foods, preservatives, pollution, stress, and lack of exercise can make your blood acidic, causing all sorts of sickness. When your blood is alkaline, your body utilizes nutrients better, blood flows smoother, cancer cells are less likely to form.
2. Wheatgrass juice increases red blood-cell count and lowers blood pressure. since it is rich in chlorophyll which has enzymes and superoxide dismutase, a copper-containing protein found in mature red blood cells. It cleanses the blood, organs, and gastrointestinal tract of debris. Wheatgrass also stimulates metabolism and the body’s enzyme systems by enriching the blood. It also aids in reducing blood pressure by dilating the blood pathways throughout the body.
3. Stimulates the thyroid gland, correcting obesity, indigestion, and a host of other complaints.
Restores alkalinity to the blood. The juice’s abundance of alkaline minerals helps reduce over-acidity in the blood. It can be used to relieve many internal pains and has been used successfully to treat peptic ulcers, ulcerative colitis, constipation, diarrhea, and other complaints of the gastrointestinal tract.
4. It is a powerful detoxifier, and liver and blood protector. The enzymes and amino acids found in wheatgrass can protect us from carcinogens like no other food or medicine. It strengthens our cells, detoxifies the liver and bloodstream, and chemically neutralizes environmental pollutants.
5. Fights tumors and neutralizes toxins. Recent studies show that wheatgrass juice has a powerful ability to fight tumors without the usual toxicity of drugs that also inhibit cell-destroying agents. The many active compounds found in grass juice cleanse the blood and neutralize and digest toxins in our cells.
6. It contains beneficial enzymes. Whether you have a cut finger you want to heal or you desire to lose five pounds … enzymes must do the actual work. The life and abilities of the enzymes found naturally in our bodies can be extended if we help them from the outside by adding exogenous enzymes, like the ones found in wheatgrass juice. Don’t cook it. We can only get the benefits of the many enzymes found in the grass by eating it uncooked. Cooking destroys 100 percent of the enzymes in food.
7. Has remarkable similarity to our own blood. The second important nutritional aspect of chlorophyll is its remarkable similarity to hemoglobin, the compound that carries oxygen in the blood. Dr. Yoshihide Hagiwara, president of the Hagiwara Institute of Health in Japan, is a leading advocate for the use of grass as food and medicine. He reasons that since chlorophyll is soluble in fat particles, and fat particles are absorbed directly into the blood via the lymphatic system, that chlorophyll can also be absorbed in this way. In other words, when the “blood” of plants is absorbed in humans it is transformed into human blood, which transports nutrients to every cell of the body.
8. When used as a rectal implant, it reverses damage from inside the lower bowel. An implant is a small amount of juice held in the lower bowel for about 20 minutes. In the case of illness, wheatgrass implants stimulate a rapid cleansing of the lower bowel and draw out accumulations of debris.
9. Externally applied to the skin can help eliminate itching almost immediately.
10. Will soothe sunburned skin and act as a disinfectant. Rubbed into the scalp before a shampoo, it will help mend damaged hair and alleviate itchy, scaly, scalp conditions.
11. It is soothing and healing for cuts, burns, scrapes, rashes, poison ivy, athlete’s foot, insect bites, boils, sores, open ulcers, tumors, and so on. Use as a poultice and replace every two to four hours.
12. Enhances your bath. Add some to your bath water and settle in for a nice, long soak.
13. Sweetens the breath and firms up and tightens gums. Just gargle with the juice.
14. Neutralizes toxic substances like cadmium, nicotine, strontium, mercury, and polyvinyl chloride.
15. It offers the benefits of a liquid oxygen transfusion since the juice contains liquid oxygen. Oxygen is vital to many body processes: it stimulates digestion (the oxidation of food), promotes clearer thinking (the brain utilizes 25% of the body’s oxygen supply), and protects the blood against anaerobic bacteria. Cancer cells cannot exist in the presence of oxygen.
16. Turns gray hair to its natural color again and greatly increases energy levels when consumed daily.
17. It is a beauty treatment that slows down the aging process when the juice is consumed. Wheatgrass will cleanse your blood and help rejuvenate aging cells, slowing the aging process way down, making you feel more alive right away. It will help tighten loose and sagging skin.
18. Lessens the effects of radiation. One enzyme found in wheatgrass, SOD, lessens the effects of radiation and acts as an anti-inflammatory compound that may prevent cellular damage following heart attacks or exposure to irritants.
19. Restores fertility and promotes youthfulness.
20. Can double your red blood cell count just by soaking in it. Renowned nutritionist Dr. Bernard Jensen found that no other blood builders are superior to green juices and wheatgrass.
21. In his book Health Magic Through Chlorophyll from Living Plant Life, he mentions several cases where he was able to double the red blood cell count in a matter of days merely by having patients soak in a chlorophyll-water bath. Blood building results occur even more rapidly when patients drink green juices and wheatgrass regularly.
22. Wheatgrass juice can dissolve the scars that are formed in the lungs from breathing acid gasses. The effect of carbon monoxide is minimized since chlorophyll increases hemoglobin production.
23. Wheatgrass uses very little of the body’s energy to extract nutrients and is ideal for athletes because it is in Juice form and the nutrients are absorbed in 20 minutes or less. The starch of the wheat berry is stored energy which when converted to simpler sugars is a quick energy source.
24. Wheatgrass juice cures acne and even helps to remove scars after it has been ingested for seven to eight months. The diet, of course, must be improved at the same time.
25. Wheatgrass juice is a skin cleanser and can be absorbed through the skin. Pour green juice over your body in a tub of warm water and soak for 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse off with cold water.
While fresh wheatgrass is the most effective, one cannot under-estimate the effect of powder and capsule forms. Friends who have been shipping this to sick relatives abroad talk of reduced blood sugar for diabetic patients.
Give it a shot… am sure you will love it!
