What is wheatgrass juice? Wheatgrass juice is the juice extracted from red wheatberry seed sprouts. This strain of wheat has been used for thousands of years all around the world for its healing properties. The juice from wheatgrass is high in Chlorophyll, active enzymes, vitamins and other important nutrients.

How to plant Wheatgrass?

Equipments
wheat seeds, plastic trays, jar, water sprinkler, organic compost.

Procedures

Wash and soak wheat seeds for 4 - 6 hours.
Drain away water and let it sprout for 24 hours in a dark area. During the 24 hours, wash 2-3 times, draining away water each time.
Spread soil smoothly at half to one inch deep on shallow trays and spread the sprouts on top of soil.
Water the sprouts and soil evenly, then cover with wet newspaper, place aside for 2 to 3 days (there is no need to water it during this period) in a cool area.
On day 4, uncover the tray, water it and place it under indirect sunlight. Continue watering as needed to keep it moist, but not too wet.
Harvest wheatgrass when it reaches 12 to 15 cm in height, cutting as close as possible to the roots.
After harvesting, wash 1 to 2 times and use a juicer to extract its juice. For normal people, can drink 30-50cc per times.
Fresh wheatgrass can be stored for up to 7 days in the refrigerator, but once juiced, should be consumed immediately.

The Benefits

Energizer
The vitality obtained from wheatgrass juice is remarkable. Two ounces of wheatgrass juice is equivalent to the nutritional value of roughly 4 pounds of organic green vegetables. On an empty stomach, it is assimilated into the blood in about 20 minutes. This gives an energy boost that lasts throughout the day.

Nutrients
Wheatgrass juice is a complete food that can be taken orally with no toxic side affects. It contains most of the vitamins and minerals needed for human maintenance. It is also a complete protein with about 30 enzymes and is approximately 70% crude chlorophyll.

Blood Builder
Both chlorophyll (as in wheatgrass juice) and hemoglobin (red blood cells) are molecularly similar. The only actual difference is that the central element in chlorophyll is magnesium and in hemoglobin it is iron. Chlorophyll has the ability to break down carbon dioxide and release oxygen. This inhibits and reduces the action of anaerobic bacteria (a disease-producing micro-organism). Wheatgrass juice has been shown to build red blood cells quickly after ingestion. It normalizes high blood pressure and stimulates healthy tissue-cell growth.

Body Cleansing
The many detergent factors of wheatgrass juice can drain the lymph system, carrying away toxins from all body cells. When an imbalance or injury exists (examples: sore tendons or joints; degenerative disease, etc.), there is a natural build-up of mucous in the lymph particular to that area. Wheatgrass juice helps to breakdown the mucous and allow it to drain. This helps to relieve pressure and allow healing.

Body Healing
According to “Survival of the 21st Century”, "In theraputic amounts, it will detoxify the body by increasing the elimination of hardened mucous, crystallized acids and solidified, decaying fecal matter. Wheatgrass juice's high enzyme content helps dissolve tumors. It is the fastest, surest way to eliminate internal waste and provide an optimum nutritional environment. Wheatgrass juice can also be used as a poultice, wash, douche or bath, stimulating healthy new cells and fighting infections."
