How I managed my Health with Wheatgrass Juice

I discovered Wheatgrass 8 years back after I suffered a Myocardial Infarction. After that, my whole life changed, and I took my Health seriously as I did not envision mine with a heart condition for the rest of my life.

My early experiments

Growing up in my hometown, I noticed my dog eat grass whenever he became sick; besides, there weren’t any veterinary clinics then. I wondered why he would eat grass, but being inquisitive, I tried eating green grass from my front yard. Of course, it was disgusting, and I would throw up just like my dog. But I noticed I was less gassy, and I spared myself from many embarrassing situations being a small boy.

Difficulty finding real Wheatgrass

After exhausting all my resources to find fresh Wheatgrass in the UAE, I grew them myself with many trials and errors. After that, I juiced religiously for 2 years, every morning for fear of ending up in CCU again.

Initially, I was skeptical that wheatgrass juice would have gluten as I was intolerant; I was wrong. The young green shoots do not as long as they are harvested before the grass splits into two blades and forms glutenous seed.

Health benefits of Wheatgrass Juicing

The secret in wheatgrass (Triticum aestivum) juice lies in its high Chlorophyll content, about 70%, and has almost the same chemical structure of hemoglobin in human blood. In addition, it contains all the known minerals: Vitamin A, B-complex, C, E, and K. Wheatgrass is high in protein, 17 amino acids, and antioxidants.

It builds blood by increasing the oxygen-carrying ability of the red blood cells. In addition, it improves immune function, removes toxic metals from the tissue, and contains a compound that kills bacteria and is anti-inflammatory.

Blood sugar levels under control with Wheatgrass.

Last year, I noticed my blood sugar increased to becoming pre-diabetic. I soon turned to Wheatgrass juicing, and just like that, my blood sugar normalized within a month.

As an ongoing effort to keep my heart in check, I also continue juicing to reduce ‘bad’ cholesterol and raise ‘good’ cholesterol levels. It also improves circulation. It has a profound effect on my manhood makes me feel like in my twenties again 😂 Besides, it reduces free radical levels due to its antioxidant properties.

Fresh Wheatgrass Vs. Wheatgrass Powder

I tried buying wheatgrass powder from Amazon, but it did not have the same effect as the fresh ones grown in organic soil, juiced right away as it begins to lose its potency within 30 minutes.

Wheatgrass – my way of detoxing

I continue my Wheatgrass juicing because it’s a potent liver and gall bladder cleanser. Chlorophyll can be regarded as the ‘blood’ of the plant. It has an almost identical composition to human blood, with one difference. Human blood is high in iron which gives it a red color, and plant chlorophyll is high in magnesium, which gives it a green color. Since I always needed magnesium, it was a win-win.
