how-to-get-wheatgrass-cheap

Wheatgrass juice, as a nutritional supplement, is so popular nowadays. The downside however, is that wheatgrass can be incredibly expensive if you buy it often from a juice bar. Many charge three or four dollars for a shot of juice, which will quickly over time. I once even paid $6 for one shot in a Vegas hotel! You shouldn’t have to pay so much for such a vital health product, especially if you are taking it for therapy.  Don’t worry there are several ways to get wheatgrass cheap.  We recommend one of three ways to get cheap wheatgrass,

  1. Growing your own wheatgrass at home
  2. Taking a wheatgrass supplement in a powdered or tablet form
  3. Buying flash frozen wheatgrass juice

If you like growing, and you want to have your own grass at home readily available, then definitely growing your own wheatgrass at home is your best option.  Wheatgrass kits only cost about $30 including soil, seeds, trays and more!  Click here to purchase a wheatgrass kit.  Disadvantages are it’s messy, and wheatgrass grown indoors is extremely susceptible to mold.  Also you will need to purchase a proper wheatgrass juice to extract the benefits from the wheatgrass juice, as the grass is non edible.  Click here to look at eletric and manual wheatgrass juciers.

Buying wheatgrass supplements in either a powdered or tablet form are also great options for getting wheatgrass cheap.  It’s also a great option for people on the go.  Wheatgrass supplements can be taken anywhere and still provides an incredible number of nutritional necessities, so even if you don’t have the time to eat your greens, you can get the vitamins and minerals you need.  A bottle of wheatgrass tablets costs about $60 USD for 1400 tablets on average.  That’s about 4 cents a tablet!  It is recommended you take 6 tablets a day, so it costs you less than a quarter a day!  Click here to buy wheatgrass tablets and powder.

Lastly, one of our favourite ways to buy wheatgrass for cheap, especially for therapy is flash frozen wheatgrass juice.  Rich in natural vitamins and enzymes, it is living raw nutrition!  Some brands of wheatgrass powders and tablets dry their dry completely before converting it into a supplement, so the wheatgrass is dead.  Not flash frozen wheatgrass.  We highly recommend the brand Dynamic Greens.  It cost as cheap as $1.40 a oz and overnight shipping is included.  Their wheatgrass is immediately flash frozen after it is juiced and is 100% organic and grown outdoors – free from any chemicals and mold, so your wheatgrass doesn’t taste funny and won’t make you nauseous.

Dynamic Greens Organic Wheatgrass Juice Review

Dynamic Greens Organic Wheatgrass Juice is grown outdoors on a wheatgrass farm in Ontario, Canada using organic methods.  They have been in the wheatgrass business for over 35 years and are passionate about what they do! Dynamic Greens Wheatgrass Juice is even featured in Steve Meyerowitz’s book Wheatgrass Nature’s Finest Medicine.

Dynamic Greens Organic Wheatgrass Juice is outdoor grown for months, flash frozen and then specially packaged as a sheet to avoid contact with air and oxidation.  Because their juice is flash frozen immediately after it is juiced, the life force of the wheatgrass juice is maintained without compromise.  Allowing you to immediately benefit the broad spectrum of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids, essential fatty acids and enzymes after consumption.

Organic Wheatgrass Kits has personally visited Dynamic Greens several times and can attest that it is the best frozen wheat grass that we have ever tasted.  It’s so sweet, so refreshing and excellent for people who need wheatgrass for therapy.

Each cube of wheatgrass is 0.5 fl. oz and as mentioned, is both organic and outdoor grown, so their wheatgrass is free from mold and chemicals.  Wheatgrass that is grown indoors is extremely susceptible to mold.  The molds can taint the taste of the juice and can even cause headaches and nausea.  Their outdoor grown wheatgrass also results in a higher chlorophyll content and less simple sugars and no carbohydrates in their juice.

Unlike other brands, Dynamic Green’s flash frozen wheatgrass juice is always green and never brown.  Wheatgrass juice that is brown means that it’s been exposed to oxygen for too long and has started breaking down.

Benefits you will get from wheat grass juice include:

  • A physical and mental sense of well-being
  • More energy and better sleep
  • Stronger immune system
  • Reduced inflammation in the entire body
  • Lessened appetite cravings
  • Increased mental clarity
  • Steadier nerves
  • Improved eyesight and night vision
  • Are you suddenly accomplishing more every day
  • Actively engaging in and enjoying activities you had been dreading in the past

The Wheatgrass Book: How to Grow and Use Wheatgrass to Maximize Your Health and Vitality by Ann Wigmore Book Review

July 7, 2009 by Dean  
Filed under Wheatgrass Book, Wheatgrass Books

“Wheatgrass can help you get more from your life-more energy to be active, more confidence in your ability to stay healthy, and more hours alert and awake each day to accomplish your goals in life.”

144 pages

TESTIMONIALS

“Ann Wigmore, the author of many books on the value of a raw food diet, initially found herself at 50 years old with many debilitating physical problems, and remembered how her grandmother had used grasses to heal the soldiers in WWI, and decided to experiment with their curative properties. Wigmore was a vibrant 76 when she wrote this book in 1985, with her weight the same as it was in her youth, and her hair returned to its natural brown. She explains everything you need to know about wheatgrass, and there is a lot to know about this most basic of all plants.

In the early chapters she notes the scientific data, Chapter 6 is about what wheatgrass can do for you, including weight control by “speeding up blood circulation and metabolic rate”. Chapter 7 has instructions on how to grow it and juice it, and in Chapter 8, the many uses, including some nice mixtures to juice up a tasty and nutritious “green drink”.

Wigmore explains “free radicals”, and the damage they do to our cells, enzymes, and the power of chlorophyll, which is plentiful in wheatgrass. It is also an excellent source of Vitamin C, Vitamin A (in the form of carotene), B Complex, Vitamin E, and minerals like calcium and zinc.

Wigmore describes how to set up an indoor growing area, but for those of us who live in all-year-around temperate climates like Southern California, can like me set up a growing corner on a patio. I use roasting pans, buy my wheat at the local health food store (the red wheat is delicious, and very inexpensive), and use good soil. Wheatgrass is powerful, so it’s good to know all you can about it before using it, and adhere to the warnings to start with small quantities. An invaluable book for anyone interested in joining “The Green Revolution”, to improve their health, need less sleep, and enjoy the many other advantages of wheatgrass, and if you have cats, they’ll like to nibble on it too. ” – Alejandra Vernon

The Many Benefits Of Wheatgrass Juice

July 7, 2009 by Dean  
Filed under Benefits of Wheatgrass, Wheatgrass Juice

the-many-benefits-of-wheatgrass-juice

Of all of the health and wellness supplements on the market, wheatgrass easily stands alone as one of the best. It is widely acknowledged that wheatgrass is one of mother nature’s superfoods. When grown in organic soil wheatgrass retains 82 out of the 92 minerals that are present in soil and 1oz of wheatgrass juice is said to contain the same amount of nutrients as 2.5 lbs of green vegetables. The health benefits of wheatgrass juice are endless. The benefits of wheatgrass juice range from the cleaning of the circulatory system to boosting our immune system.

Wheatgrass is grown from hard redwheat berries which is a special strain that contains high concentrations of chlorophyll, amino acids, enzymes, minerals and vitamins. Wheatgrass juice itself is rich in antioxidants which in turn can help limit the number of free radicals in our system and help prevent degenerative diseases.

Wheatgrass must be juiced for one to obtain maximum nutritional value from it. In its non-juiced form wheatgrass is non-digestible due to it’s high levels of cellulose, and its fibrous nature. You can also chew on the blades of grass to get the juice from it, but be sure to spit out the pulp.

You can buy wheatgrass juice in powdered, frozen or even ready made forms. But growing your own is the cheapest means and the most satisfying. Wheatgrass kits are available for purchase through our website and which allow you to grow your own wheatgrass in large quantities for cheap. It can easily be grown indoors as long as you have a window that gets sunlight on a daily basis. You will also need a wheatgrass juicer to extra the juice from the tiny blades of grass. The most common type of juicer (centrifugal juicers) will not be able to juice wheatgrass.

The taste of wheatgrass juice may seem a little strange to some, as it is very sweet and grassy. You may prefer to make juice from a combination of wheatgrass and other fruits and vegetables.

Because it’s strong taste annd detoxification properties many people start off drinking around an ounce of wheatgrass juice a day (with/without other juices) and then gradually increase the amount to around 4oz of wheatgrass juice a day. One handful of wheatgrass will produce approximately an ounce of juice.

Another great thing about wheatgrass is that despite it’s name, it is gluten-free. So it is suitable for anyone who has a gluten intolerance.
