Wheatgrass Benefits – Why You Need To Grow Wheatgrass

by Giselle

wheatgrass-benefitsThe health benefits you get from wheatgrass are simply outstanding. And if you’re a kefir drinker, the health benefits of organic wheat grass is a great match to go along with the Kefir you culture using your Kefir grains.

By drinking wheatgrass regularly we get healthier bodies and are sick less often, which leads to requiring less medicine. An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure after all.

Here are just some of the wheatgrass benefits you get from drinking wheatgrass and just a few of the reasons why we recommend drinking it (with kefir) a 101%.

Testimonials from actual wheat grass drinkers.

  • “Drinking wheatgrass reduces your fatigue and gives you that extra boost of energy you need”

I was so stressed and tired working 80 hours a week! Drinking natural wheatgrass drink has made me more alert and definitely more energized. More than enough to get me through those long hours.

Compared to coffee, which only temporarily boosts you then makes you sleepy and super tired once it wears off, drinking freshly squeezed organic wheatgrass juice doesn’t seem to have that effect on me. And did I mention it’s a great way to start the day!

  • “Appetite suppression”

On a diet? Or simply watching your weight? Drinking wheatgrass is a great way to keep you away from the fridge. It’s loaded with so much nutrients, vitamins and energy that it’s a great way to keep your tummy satisfied meaning less temptations for you.

Yearly, I liquid fast for a week and I personally know how hard it is. Before, I kept giving up in the middle of the fast because my body couldn’t take it. When I started drinking wheat grass however, everything changed. Fasting was a breeze and I could do it for longer if I didn’t miss the taste of food so much! So if you are fasting or on a diet, then this is THE IDEAL drink for you.

  • “Improved digestion, metabolism and fat-loss”

I learnt from my gym/health instructor that wheat grass is also full of enzymes. Now I know it sounds like a scary looking word, but it actually does your body good! Kind of like how probiotic kefir has tons of good and friendly bacteria in it). These enzymes in wheatgrass boosts the bodies metabolism and increases the rate at which it burns fat. My digestion also improved dramatically and it’s known to be a great addition to your diet and your diet and work out.

  • Below are some more health benefits of wheatgrass if you are looking for a kefir alternative

- It protects the body and boosts the immune system.
- It helps the body fight constipation and promote regular bowel discharge.
- It is great for the hair (read: Ann Wigmore’s story of how her hair returned to it’s original color of brown from greyish white. All thanks to wheatgrass.)
- Drinking wheat grass calms the nervous system.
- It is effective in treating acne and acne scars, rashes and it definitely will improve your complexion.

Tip: Like protein shakes, which your body absorbs faster than eating steak, drinking wheatgrass will give you the absolute maximum absorption for your body because it’s in liquid form. But remember to consume it within 20 minutes after you juice it to get the best results.

You can also get fresh oxygen and all the wonders it provides from the sprouting wheatgrass. It is a plant after all. Put it in the living room or near the window. Your pets will love wheatgrass too.
