The Benefits of Fresh Wheatgrass Juice
Wheatgrass juice is a powerful living food that has the ability to cleanse and heal the cells, blood, and organs of the body. When you drink fresh wheatgrass juice, you replenish and nourish your body with an elixir rich in vitamins and minerals, chlorophyll, enzymes, and anti-oxidants.
In wheatgrass juice, unlike in a vitamin pill, these healing elements are present in a naturally balanced, organic, and easy-to-absorb form. You can drink it now-and-then for a burst of clean energy and an immune boost, or you can start a daily routine to accomplish deep cleansing and healing and to attain a state of incredible vitality.
Vitamins and Minerals: Disease in the body can be traced to two root causes: nutrient deficiency and toxicity. When the food we eat lacks important elements, wheatgrass juice is the perfect natural supplement.
Just one ounce of juice equals over two pounds of fresh produce in terms of vitamins and minerals. How is that? Wheat has the unique ability to pick up 92 of the 102 minerals from the ocean water it is grown in, as well as all the vitamins science has isolated.
Wheatgrass juice is an especially good source of calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, sulfur, cobalt, and zinc, and it is high in selenium, which removes heavy metals from the body. By starting a regular wheatgrass juice routine, you supply your body with all the trace elements it needs to avoid disease and operate at peak performance.
Chlorophyll: The basis of all life on Earth is the sun. Animals get their energy from the sun through photosynthesis with the help of chlorophyll, a light-absorbing molecule that produces sugar and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water.
Amazingly, wheatgrass juice has been proven to build red blood cells quickly after ingestion. How is that? Wheatgrass juice contains up to 70% chlorophyll, and the chlorophyll molecule is almost the same as hemin, the pigment in our blood. So by producing more high quality blood in the body, wheatgrass juice normalizes high blood pressure, stimulates healthy tissue cell growth, oxygenates the blood, and improves blood circulation, which cleans the organs and promotes clear thinking.
It has also been proven that chlorophyll will stop the growth of unfriendly bacteria and inhibit the metabolic activity of carcinogens. The cleansing power of chlorophyll catalyzes the elimination of stored toxins like hardened mucus, crystallized acids, fatty deposits, calcifications, and solidified, decaying fecal matter.
Enzymes: We have a reserve of metabolic enzymes in our bodies. These enzymes regular millions of biochemical functions that take place in our body every day. They catalyze everything we do, including digesting, cleansing, even thinking.
But our storehouse of enzymes is depleted when we eat a diet of devitalized, non-enzyme-rich foods. Then the body has to use these precious enzymes to digest food, rather than for supporting functions in the organs, like the liver, spleen and pancreas. The result is disease.
Wheatgrass juice contains over 30 important enzymes including:
• Protease - assists in digestion
• Amylase - facilitates starch digestion
• Lipase - a fat splitting enzyme
• Transhydrogenase - keeps heart muscle toned
Drinking wheatgrass juice regularly will rebuild our reserves of metabolic enzymes.
Anti-oxidants: During normal cellular activity, our body produces waste products called "free radicals" that run around in our bodies causing havoc including:
• Cell mutations - which can lead to cancer, and
• Aging process - such as wrinkles, hair loss, weight gain, etc.
Anti-oxidants stop the dangerous chain reactions caused by free radicals. They reduce cell mutations, artery damage, skin wrinkles, and other signs of aging.
One enzyme known to be an anti-oxidant is Superoxide Dismutase. Wheatgrass contains an abundance of Superoxide Dismutase, which will help your body avoid, or deal will cancerous conditions.
Other Benefits of Wheatgrass:
• Wheatgrass juice will help drain the lymph system, which carries away toxins from body cells.
