Wheatgrass is available in different forms that we can digest. Wheatgrass powder can be blended with water or fresh juices…

MACRO Nutrient Rich Wheatgrass
Wheatgrass contains a broad range of nutrients. Our bodies co-ordinates endless biochemical reactions that create and maintain life. These processes are characterized by changing a molecule from one substance into another. This is how the body converts the foods we eat into things like bone, ligaments, finger nails, hair and tissue. Each process requires a precise combination of nutrients to function properly. Those that are needed in large amounts are called macronutrients. There are three macronutrients required by humans: carbohydrates (sugar), lipids (fats), and proteins. Each of these macronutrients provides energy in the form of calories. Protein is an important component of every cell in our bodies. Hair and nails are mostly…

Plants use chlorophyll and light to make food. It can be extracted from many plants, but wheatgrass is composed of as much as 70-percent chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is at its highest levels in very fresh plant material. We use chlorophyll as medicine as it contributes to our health and well-being. Uses and benefits of chlorophyll Anti-inflamitory – reducing swelling & pain Purifies blood – as it has a similar molecular structure to hemoglobin – a component of blood Constipation – it improves digestion Detoxification – it…

Wheatgrass – Full Of Minerals
Nutrients are environmental substances used for energy, growth, and bodily functions by organisms. Wheatgrass is an excellent source of various nutrients needed by our bodies. Wheatgrass contains about 70% chlorophyll, 17 amino acids, 97 enzymes, vitamins & phytochemicals. It contains over 90 minerals some of which are: Iron – required to make hemoglobin, a protein that helps your red blood cells carry oxygen.
