Look around yourself almost 1/3 of the Earth is covered with grass. Nature has given the 'soldiers' to animals and humans as cure in the form of grass. You might have seen cats and dogs nibbling over the grass whenever they fall sick. Intuitively animals know the grass is a cure for all kinds of sickness. Among all types of grasses, wheat grass (till first 2 weeks after the germination of the wheat grains) has all the necessary nutrients.
Wheat grass juice is a soldier in a true sense, a soldier equipped with all kinds of intelligence, power, sharpness and speed. It can be called as a soldier of the body and has the greatest potential to cure the human body from practically every kind of disease, because of the following qualities:-
1) It is a complete protein containing over 20 essential and non- essential amino acids.
2) In the Vitamin department, it contains twice Vitamin A (Beta- Carotene) than carrots, all the Vitamins B including B-12, more Vitamin C than oranges, Vitamin E and Vitamin K.
3) Wheatgrass is an excellent source for all major and minor minerals, containing 92 of the 102 minerals found in the soil. It is especially high in calcium, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus and potassium, as well as trace minerals such as zinc and selenium.
4) It contains essential fatty acids: Linolenic Acid and Linoleic Acid.
5) It has more than 80 different enzymes. Nutritive value of 15 kg wheatgrass juice is equivalent to 350 kg of the vegetables
Wheatgrass has oxygen in a diffusible state (ready for body absorption) in abundance. When we drink wheatgrass juice, supply of oxygen in blood increases, leading to the longevity and vitality of the body. Chlorophyll of wheatgrass is also known as green blood. When compared to the molecule of hemoglobin, the oxygen carrier in human blood, chlorophyll is almost identical. The major difference is that the nucleus of chlorophyll contains Magnesium (Mg), whereas hemoglobin contains Iron (Fe). Chlorophyll's unique ability to kill anaerobic odor producing bacteria is the reason, it covers up the smell of garlic, fights bad breath, body odor and acts as a general antiseptic. These bacteria, which live without air, are destroyed by chlorophyll's oxygen producing agents.
Dr. Otto Warburg, the 1931 Nobel Prize winner of Physiology and Medicine discovered that oxygen deprivation was a major cause of cancer. The cancer therapy today bombards tumours with ozone, a highly active oxygen. Unlike many drugs, chlorophyll has never been found to be toxic in any dosages. Chlorophyll can even protect us from harmful radiation from X-ray, television, computer screen, transmitters and microwave. Famous research scientist E.Bircher called Chlorophyll as “Concentrated Sun Power” and reported that it increases the function of the heart, vascular system, kidneys, intestine, uterus and the lungs. It raises the basic nitrogen exchange. And is therefore a tonic which, considering its stimulation properties cannot be compared with any other food or medicine on the planet. We can conclusively say that drinking wheatgrass juice certainly detoxyfies the blood and strengthens the immune system. It leads to more energy and an improved ability to combat and reverse illness.

Some F. A. Q.
Question: How do I avoid mould when growing wheatgrass?
Answer: Mould is the most common problem, when growing wheatgrass (in fact it is often the only problem). It can be identified as white blobs forming (normally around the base of the wheatgrass stalks) when it is alive and as black spots when it is dead. The following are the suggestions for preventing mould formation to your home grown wheatgrass.
Question: At what stage the wheat grass should be used for Juice?
Answer: The plant undergoes rapid growth with increasingly nutritional manifestation until maturity (when it switches gear from vegetative growth to reproductive growth). Just prior to this change- over, the plant is at its nutritional peak. This transition is known as jointing (as shown in picture). After jointing the nutritional counts drop radically. The plant then start sending all its nourishment to the developing wheat grains.
Question: Can I take wheatgrass during my pregnancy?
Answer: Wheatgrass is great for prenatal care, as it provides the body with nutrients like antioxidants, chlorophyll and folic acid.
Question: I have a wheat or gluten allergy, is wheatgrass juice safe to take?
Answer: Wheatgrass is harvested till the jointing stage, before it turns into a grain. In this stage the grass does not contain any gluten. It is extremely rare for people with wheat allergies to have reaction, because they are usually allergic to the gluten found in the wheat kernel. Wheat grain is different than wheat grass. One is grain and other is a green vegetable.
Question: Can you use wheat grass powder instead of Wheat grass Juice?
Answer: The Wheat grass juice has all the nutrients capable to fight with diseases found in our body, more over it is also mandatory to consume the juice within twenty minutes of the preparation. After that time period the nutrient value radically falls down, but in case of wheat grass powder, the optimum benefit can not be attained. Anything that is dried has an
incredible loss of vital life force. Even if you dry it carefully. Dried is dormant. Dormant is inactive. Problem with all that dried stuff is the life force. The ethereal energy is dissipated and lost. You are something highly vibrational and wheat grass juice is also the highly vibrational –it tunes right into you and brings up your vibration.
How Wheatgrass Heals?
Here I would like to shift your focus from mythology and history towards concrete facts and logic.
Wheatgrass helps in healing by:
- Restoring the damaged neurons.
- Restoring the organ damage.
- Behavior modification.
- Restoring the intuitive intelligence.
- Complete mind–body cleansing.
- Optimizing the hormonal balance.
And to complete the answer I will tell you..
Why Wheatgrass Heals?
Because it contains:
1. Power of sunlight in condensed form.
2. All the 92 nutrients out of 102 nutrients in the appropriate ratio as needed by human body for perfect balance.
3. Mind–body–soul alignment through perfect vibrational energy. Truly said, by Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, “Not the Doctor, but Nature Heals”.
Question: How can I take out the wheat grass juice?
Answer: You have the potential to change your life forever. I am going to reveal to you the Panacea on earth. It will change the way you think about health and then you'll never be required to visit any hospital or health center to cure dreaded diseases.
It had been in use since ages. One can find its mention and use in the pages of mythology and world history. Let me give some of the endorsees of this humble little secret.
1) Lord Ganesha once swallowed a mighty demon and developed a burning sensation in his stomach. No God or doctor all over the cosmos could relieve him from his burning pain. Then 8800 sages gave him this food that we are talking about & he got immediate relief.
2) Jesus Christ asked his men and mankind to take this food to cure themselves of any disease.
3) This food was taken by Egyptian Kings and soldiers of Mesopotamian civilization to keep themselves healthy.
4) Shushruta who wrote “Shushruta Samhita” and is known as 'father of Surgery', used this to heal the injuries and wounds of his patients. 5) It was used during the reign of Chandragupta Maurya to heal and cure wounds and injuries.
6) The great Arab-traveler Ibn–e-battuta or Hajji Abu-Abdulla Muhammad was a Moroccan. He is known for his fascinating travels spanning thirty years. He started his journey at the age of twenty-one (1325) and ended it in 1355. During his travel in 1348, when he was in Damascus Syria ,he got sick. that time, the whole world was under a pandemic called Bubonic Plague, also known as Black-Death. It was the most devastating pandemic in human History. Ibn-e-Battuta too caught this plague. One of his professors helped him to get cured. This professor gave him the juice of this wonder food and other concoctions. He was back on his foot soon and left for India.
7) Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar II, who built 'Hanging Garden of Babylon' to please his homesick wife Amytis of Media, once got very sick and lost his mental balance. He was sick for seven long years. Finally he got cured consuming fruits, vegetables and herbs and this food.
