Wheatgrass... nature’s healer
Wheatgrass is baby wheat, planted
on the soil and not sown. Wheatgrass
produces high concentrations of
chlorophyll, active enzymes, vitamins
and other nutrients. Chlorophyll
makes up over 70% of the solid
content of wheatgrass juice and
is the basis of all plant life. It is
often referred to as the “blood of
plant life” as it closely resembles
the molecule in human red blood
cells. Wheatgrass is not only rich
in chlorophyll; it has 100 elements
needed by the body to keep vital and
nourished. If grown in organic soil,
wheatgrass absorbs 92 of the known
102 minerals from the soil.
Dr. Ann Wigmore was a pioneer
in the use of wheatgrass juice for
detoxifying and healing the body,
mind, and spirit. The recommended
daily allowance for wheatgrass is 30
mls once or twice per day. You can
start with as little as 10–15mls per
day and gradually increase the dose.
Wheatgrass juice can temporarily
cause an upset stomach if too much
is consumed too soon.
Care and Use
Cut the grass close to the roots and
wash thoroughly to ensure no soil
or stones are present. You can get a
second yield when the grass grows
back, although the content won’t be
as rich as the original grass. Feed
the wheatgrass tips first into the Axis.
Four trays planted on different days
over a two week period should be
enough for 1 person. Undoubtedly,
wheatgrass has a very strong taste.
You can mix the wheatgrass shots
and here are a couple of delicious
recipes.
When juicing wheatgrass, barley
grass or alfalfa juice, place a bunch
of wheatgrass (about 3cm diameter)
‘tips down’ into the feeding chute.
Feed carrots and other desired fruits
or vegetables into the chute for a
milder tasting combination for those
who haven’t tried pure wheatgrass
juice before.
