I am sipping on a tall glass of a freshly juiced wheatgrass smoothie while writing this blog. And it issoooo… good, it makes me feel like a million dollars!

Wheat grass is so filling! When I drink a wheatgrass smoothie for breakfast I am not hungry again until mid-afternoon. Thanks to Victoria Boutenko and other pioneers of the raw foods lifestyle, I found the secrets to making wheatgrass juice not only palatable, but delicious! (Click on the link & watch my video, ‘How to Juice Wheatgrass with a Vita-Mix Blender’ after reading this blog!)

Why Wheatgrass?

Someone asked me, “Why are you so jazzed about wheatgrass? I thought wheatgrass was mostly used to help people recover from serious problems, like cancer!”

And the answer is not some textbook answer! My response is based on my personal experience of growing and juicing wheatgrass for the past six months.

Wheat grass is so easy to grow yourself in your house or apartment! Economical too! The organic wheat berries that I buy at a local food coop cost only .99 per pound.The other ingredients– good clean organic potting soil and filtered water– are not expensive either. One pound of berries will provide you with plenty of wheatgrass, enough to make juice for one person for a week to ten days.

I read in Randall Fitzgerald’s book, ‘The Hundred-Year Lie’ that two ounces of wheatgrass juice is nutritionally equivalent to consuming nearly three pounds of fresh vegetables and 103 different vitamins and minerals. Wheat grass contains nature’s richest source of chlorophyll and acts as a potent immune system booster, body-organ cleanser and toxins neutralizer.

I am so inspired by the results I get from wheatgrass I just want to share the good news with everyone around the world, sick people and well people! Add wheatgrass to your diet and feel the difference in days!

Juicing Wheatgrass

Juicing & consuming wheatgrass so easy, especially with the Vita Mix blender. When I first began, I was buying wheatgrass at a local market and juicing with a new Green Star juicer. Buying in small quantities at the market was expensive and the process of juicing with the Green Star took me a minimum of 45 minutes from start to cleanup.

Then I discovered the Vita Mix Blender and everything changed.

I watched Victoria Botenko demonstrate how to make wheatgrass juice using the Vita Mix and I was immediately sold.

The process is so quick and easy that I can harvest the wheatgrass, juice it, blend it, enjoy it and clean up in just 12 to 15 minutes.

More Benefits of Wheatgrass

Others have said, “Wheat grass improves the digestive system; prevents cancer, diabetes and heart disease; cures constipation; detoxifies heavy metals from the bloodstream; cleanses the liver; prevents hair loss; helps make menopause more manageable and promotes general well-being . . .”

But can wheatgrass really meet all of these claims? I hear some of you saying, ‘Enough already!’

So I will stop right here and ask you to please give me some feedback about your own experiences with wheatgrass. Add a comment to this forum or just click Contact us and tell me how wheatgrass has benefited you in your health and nutrition program.
I have found that the most important contribution to my own health and nutrition has been the addition of a Vita-Mix blender to my kitchen appliances. The Vita-Mix replaces several appliances, including the Green Star juicer!

Save Money

My grocery bill has actually decreased now that I am growing and juicing wheatgrass and using the Vita-Mix to make green smoothies and other delicious raw food treats.

For example, this weekend I picked a bushel of organic apples at a local farm– a ‘U-Pick’ farm costs much less than store-bought, plus I got the added benefit of being outdoors– and used my Vita-Mix and a dehydrator to process the apples into ‘apple leathers.’ These tasty treats will satisfy my ’sweet tooth’ for several months and I have plenty to share with friends.
