Wheatgrass... A natural energy accelerator. Supercharge your Life - Naturally!

Are you a walking, talking ball of energy? A zest for living adds charm, flavor and piquancy to everyday life. Wheatgrass is undoubtedly the hottest natural energy accelerator. It possesses the capacity for energetic transformation. More than a grain, wheatgrass offers the healing benefits of a primary 'sun-food', converting the sun's rays directly into chlorophyll as well as an abundance of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and enzymes -- all needed to enhance and optimize your health and energy.

 

Molecules of certain pigments have the ability to absorb light (this ideal energy module or principle bursts with primal, vital energy) and adapt it to the chemical needs of the plant. The pigment which gives wheatgrass its green color is called chlorophyll and it is mainly this substance which is used to harvest light energy. A shot of wheatgrass juice changes the levels of vitamins, minerals and enzymes in our systems, and can dramatically affect our energy levels and feelings of well-being.

Photosynthesis, the synthesis of organic compounds from carbon dioxide and water using light energy absorbed by chlorophyll, can be observed when wheatgrass is but a few days old!

 

Wheatgrass is easy to grow!

 

Soak a handful of unmilled wheat grain in x 2 in water overnight, strain in a colander and spread the seeds onto a tray (with holes in the bottom) 1/2 filled with organic compost. Cover and water daily for about 2-3 days. Remove covering and place the tray in a light/shade spot. You will notice little pale yellow shoots growing up. In a matter of hours these stalks turn a rich, vibrant green -- this is photosynthesis in action. The young chlorophyllating leaves are trapping sun-energy and storing it in their chloroplasts.The successful trapping and subsequent utilization of the radiant energy of the sun can be trapped in a glass of wheatgrass juice!

Growing wheatgrass at home is fun, easy and inexpensive. A tray of wheatgrass (about 7inches tall), a blender, water and unheated honey is all you need to make wheatgrass juice. 

Method: Allow the wheatgrass to grow for 7-12 days, watering a little every day. Blend a handful of rinsed wheatgrass in a blender 1/2 filled with cold water and add honey to taste. Strain into a sieve and serve. The pulp which is what is left behind in the strainer can be used as a beautifying agent. Add a little, without honey to your dog and cat food -- they will love it!   If you are a novice, start off by drinking 1 ounce of wheatgrass juice a day. 1 handful of wheatgrass is equivalent to about an ounce. Gradually increase 4 ounces.
