The wonders of Wheatgrass



WHEATGRASS is the young sprout from wheat grains, which has been allowed to grow for seven to eight days. It is in juiced or powdered form that contains a huge amount and high level of nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, phytochemicals and more than 100 types of enzymes.
Since wheatgrass offers exemplary nutritional benefits, it has been named as the green blood, the King of Alkaline Food and the Super Food.
As green blood, wheatgrass contains the active component chlorophyll which is the green pigment of the plant that resembles the structure of the hemoglobin of the red blood cells. Like the human blood, chlorophyll carries energy, nutrients and oxygen to the different parts of the plant. The same process applies in human body wherein chlorophyll supplies nutrition and oxygen to the blood.
Vegetables can successfully neutralize acids in the body since they are rich in bicarbonates and other alkaline minerals like calcium, magnesium, manganese and iron.
However, regardless of different alkaline food like lettuce, lime, tomato, banana, celery and even spinach, wheatgrass has been hailed to be the "King of Alkaline Food." Its neutralizing property is proven to be the highest at 66.4 megahertz contrary to spinach which is at 39.6 megahertz.
Wheatgrass is also recognized as a life-sustaining complete food. It contains carbohydrates, proteins, fatty acids, 17 amino acids, 13 vitamins, 10 minerals, various trace minerals, fiber, chlorophyll, different phytochemicals and 100 types of enzymes, thus it is called as the Super Food.
In the market, Easy Pha-max is the only wheatgrass product that combines the leaves and roots that help consumers feel healthier from head to toe. PR
