Why can’t we eat wheatgrass in its natural state?
Cows and other animals that graze on grass have short intestines. Cows have four stomachs so they can chew, digest, regurgitate and then chew the grass again to break it down. Humans only have one stomach and our long complex intestines is not suited to digest the very woody and fibrous wheatgrass when we eat it. You can however chew wheatgrass and still get results, as long as you don’t swallow the fibre. Its best to chew on it to get the great juice and then eject from your mouth.
Wheatgrass is available in different forms that we can digest. Wheatgrass powder can be blended with water or fresh juices and smoothies for extra nutrition and to energise you. Capsules & tablets are portable and can also be taken as a supplement. It also can be used topically on the skin and scalp. Wheatgrass juice can be drank as a shots or added to other juice drinks and smoothies. Some health food stores also sell fresh wheatgrass for juicing at home or you can grow your own…
