Freshness Test

You can grow Wheat Grass yourself ensuring it is always fresh.


Important

Due to the fact that Wheat Grass is a green juice, you will find it beneficial to have no more than about ¼ of your juice consisting of green juice.

What Grass is very concentrated and so I try not use to any more than 1 ounce in every 8 ounce glass.

Some people may feel a little dizzy or nauseous after having some Wheat Grass juice.


General

Many people go to juice bars to drink their Wheat Grass juice, but you can easily grow your own Wheat Grass.

I like Wheat Grass because it contains super oxide dismutase (SOD). This is the ingredient that allows the body to make its own and powerful anti–oxidants.

For more information about Wheat Grass, consider reading books by Dr. Ann Wigmore.
