Wheatgrass is still the unsung hero. New study shows wheatgrass health benefits and cancer fighting properties are promising.
With 70% of Chlorophyll make up and amazing detoxifying properties, wheatgrass is starting to draw some well deserved attention.
Let’s look at the wheatgrass health benefits and cancer fighting properties:
Nutritional powerhouse:
30mls of freshly squeezed wheatgrass juice is equivalent in nutritional value of almost 2lbs of leafy green vegetables.
One teaspoon of wheatgrass powder, (about 3.5 grams) is equal to an entire spinach salad (50 grams).
Wheatgrass contains over 90 minerals, including high concentrations of minerals: potassium, calcium, magnesium and sodium.
Wheatgrass has more vitamin C than oranges and twice the vitamin Aas carrots. They are potent when it comes in eliminating free radicals and cleansing the body.
Rich in enzymes:
It contains essential enzymes: Protease (aid in protein digestion), Cytochrome Oxidase (a powerful anti oxidant), Amylase (facilitates digestion), Lipase (a fat splitting enzyme), Transhydrogenase (strengthens the heart muscle) & Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) (found in all body cells and is known for its ability to lessen the effect of radiation and slow cellular aging).
Helps with red blood cell count:
Wheatgrass juice can help our body build red blood cells.
Cancer fighting properties:
Recent studies show that wheatgrass juice may be able fight tumors without the usual toxicity of drugs that also inhibit cell-destroying agents.
Since it contains chlorophyll. it has almost the same molecular structure as hemoglobin. Chlorophyll increases hemoglobin production, meaning more oxygen gets to the cancer. Selenium and laetrile are in wheatgrass, both have cancer fighting properties.
Because it is high in saponin, wheatgrass helps support the lymphatic system. It is like a scavenger, and carries away thousands of toxins from the cells of the body.
Note: Organic wheatgrass powders and juices are potent when it comes to boosting the immune system.
When first starting wheatgrass, you should only use one ounce once or twice a day, gradually working up to two ounces.
