Wheatgrass Exposed
by Christopher Stewart
Has anyone ever noticed that people of our
world eat so many quantities of wheat (normally in highly processed and
lifeless, enzymeless forms like breads, bagels, donuts, pizza, cookies,
and desserts?) Do they realize that the near nutritional benefit and
healing power of wheat is hidden in the wheat berry (or seed)
itself?
Wheatgrass, which is the 10 to 14 days grown grass,
contains the entire range of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and nutrients
that your body requires. Whereas wheat's more popular form of dead food
products consumed by millions of uneducated people is totally void of life
or health-giving properties.
Although the leading body experts,
know as doctors, pharmacists, dietitians and scientists have been aware
for well over 60 years (possibly centuries) about the miraculous qualities
of wheatgrass and chlorophyll, they seemed to have left it up to us to
"discover it." Thanks to caring people like Ann Wigmore and Victoras
Kulvinskas, countless numbers of people have been given a new lease on
life, better health and peace of mind using wheatgrass juice and living
foods.
Wheatberries, like all other sprout seeds, reminds us that
life force or innate healing power is hidden within us. When we expose and
release this energy (like sprouting does for seeds) by drinking or
applying wheatgrass, our bodies and minds regenerate into the strong
beautiful and healthy forms they were created to become.
The simple
things life offers us still contain not only amazing answers to our
seemingly most difficult human conditions, but also teach us the basic
laws for true happiness and survival.
As a survival food, storing
wheat berries is in my opinion, a must. Not only because you can live off
wheatgrass, if necessary, but you can also turn wheat berry sprouts into
an incredible variety of foods. Some of these include sprouted breads,
cookies, sprouted pizza, desserts, rejuvelac, sprouted wheat germ, and
wheat milk. You can use the wheatgrass pulp for external wounds,
blemishes, rashes, and bruises. And with even more imagination, the
wheatgrass juice can be taken internally through other areas (eyes, ears,
and nose) and can benefit all possible ailments. If you are ever without
other herbs, essential oils, or remedies, wheat berries are a complete
first aid kit the Creator has given us.
Give your body, your most
sacred possession, the gift of life and love. Wheatgrass! May the juice be
with you!
