You have probably overheard colleagues discussing Wheat grass at some point during the last few years. Maybe it is in a juice bar or from a friend or member of the family already utilising some of the numerous types of wheatgrass but if you’re like most people, you might still misunderstand wheat grass or the natural healing power wheat grass contains.

Wheatgrass is simply the blades of grass grown from wheatgrain. When the grain is soaked and planted it develops shoots within two or three days. A few days later the shoots grow into blades of lush green grass. Within 8-10 days the wheatgrass is ready for processing, At this stage it is worth noting that whilst the wheatgrass already contains large levels of nutrients it hasn’t had the required time to process complex carbohydrates often found in over-wintered wheatgrass.

As soon as the wheatgrass is ready to be processed it is usually turned into numerous forms, which often include wheat grass powder (Mainly made by drying and grinding the wheat grass blades into a very fine powder) wheat grass capsules (simply the powder capsulated for ease of consumption) wheatgrass tablets (again usually the powder cold pressed into tablet form) and wheatgrass juice. (The wheat grass blades are juiced in a specialist wheat grass juicer which crushes the juice out of the wheat grass without destroying vital nutrients.)

Any of the various forms of wheatgrass are packed with a wealth of health boosting attributes, with a wide range of minerals, vitamins, enzymes and amino acids. Wheatgrass also contains over 70% chlorophyll, which is very similar in its DNA make up to blood. This means that our bodies can use the nutritional content in wheatgrass extemely easily.

Wheatgrass has been used for decades but it has only just reached the united kingdom and you can now find it online and at your local juice bars. Wheat grass has been used for many medical ailments and can be applied topically for external skin conditions like acne and eczema. Taken internally it can help cleanse the blood stream replenishing it with essential nutrients which are required for optimum health.
