When starting a program for healing our bodies of illnesses, boosting our immunity or preventing disease, we can look to wheatgrass, one of the most effective healing plants on Earth. Wheatgrass is excellent for detoxification. It is loaded with chlorophyl, an antioxidant that can pull toxins out of our cells. All of us are have toxic heavy metals in cells to one degree or another. This is a result of cooking with metal cookware or certain kinds of dental fillings. The majority of people are not aware that these toxic heavy metals remain in our cells and build up over time. This often leads illness like diabetes, heart disease and cancer.
Wheatgrass juicing is a great way of removing these heavy metals and other toxic chemicals from our cells. Many people who start out with wheatgrass juicing take it gradually, drinking 1-oz. shots. As we get more used to that dose we can increase the amount to 2-oz. shots each day and then on to 4-oz. shots. It is better to begin slowly as ones body will start to detoxify years of stored toxins. So when we begin drinking wheatgrass juice it is normal to start feeling a bit woozy, this is because the body is experiencing something called the “herximeir”, a term used to describe the unpleasant side effects of detoxification. What we can do is to slow down these detoxification reactions by either taking a day or two off, or reducing the dose until the symptoms go away, and then increase dosage again.
If yu decide that you truly want to begin wheatgrass juicing daily, you are going to need a wheatgrass juice extractor. This way you will definitely save some money over time. If you purchase wheatgrass shots at the local health store every day you can end up spending about $150 each month. With that being the case it is more cost-effective to buy a good quality wheatgrass juice extractor and also to grow wheatgrass at home (which is ver easy to do), therefore saving a bunch of money.
