It arises from the fresh sprouts of common wheat (Triticum aestivum) while it is a food rich in chlorophyll and more than 50 nutrients for our body. Some of the most important quantitative vitamins contained in wheatgrass are A, C, E, K, B12, amino acids, enzymes and proteins, calcium, magnesium and iron.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p lang=\"el-GR\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Wheatgrass is recognized for its <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>detoxifying and cleansing properties<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">, as well as for supporting the regeneration of healthy cells. But let us look in more detail at the basic properties that are given to it.<br \/><br \/>It <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>protects the body from free radicals and environmental pollution<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">, and consequently protects against the formation of cancer cells, <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>strengthens the immune system<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"> and promotes the creation of new healthy cells in our body. The chlorophyll contained in wheatgrass, offers oxygenation to our body, regenerating tissues and blood. As an excellent antioxidant, it neutralizes free radicals and prevents cell damage and oxidative stress, <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>protecting against cardiovascular disease<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">, cancer cell formation and <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>neurodegenerative diseases<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">.<br \/><br \/>It is an <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>excellent detoxifier, cleansing the body of heavy metals<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">. Its use in detox diets is important for this very reason. Through detoxification it treats constipation and cleanses the kidneys, liver and bile. It is also considered to contribute to weight loss and the <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>treatment of obesity<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">, regulating metabolism but also through the detoxification it offers.<br \/><br \/><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Beneficial for the skin<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">, wheatgrass has an excellent effect on relieving the symptoms of <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>psoriasis<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">, while effectively treating <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>eczema<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">, acne, fungal infections and dandruff. In fact, it works as an excellent deodorant.<br \/><br \/><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Keeps the heart healthy, brain function at normal levels and protects against anemia, cholesterol and hypertension<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">! All this of course due to the strengthening of the circulatory system but also the natural source of iron that is! The juice seems to lower bad cholesterol levels as well as triglycerides.<br \/><br \/><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Treats inflammation, internally and externally<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\">! Persistent wounds that do not close, chronic inflammation of the intestine such as ulcerative colitis, stomach disorders, diarrhea, vaginal infections due to chlorophyll are treated with great success.<br \/><br \/><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Individual properties that have been attributed to wheatgrass are:<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"> the treatment of varicose veins, the protection of teeth and gums, the improvement of digestion and the symptomatic treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.<br \/><br \/>While there is much evidence to support the above properties of wheatgrass, more research is needed so that it can be used for a specific treatment rather than as a dietary supplement. As with all dietary supplements and alternative medicines, talk to your personal doctor before consuming. It is generally considered safe and contains no gluten. If you feel nauseous or have any side effects, headache or diarrhea after eating, do not eat wheatgrass again because you will obviously have intolerance.<br \/><br \/>The taste of wheatgrass is intense and reminiscent of grass. Try to consume it in juices and smoothies with fruits or vegetables with an equally intense taste like pineapple, in milk, in yogurt with honey. You can alternatively not consume wheatgrass powder or juice, but get it in capsule form, where the taste is not manifested.<br \/><br \/>Get wheatgrass from certified companies. Alternatively you can grow wheatgrass sprouts for personal use. The powder is consumed in a ratio of 1 tablespoon for a large glass of juice, smoothie, a salad or a vegetable soup.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wheatgrass is one of the most talked about superfoods for its great nutritional value.
