Hi everyone,
I've been juicing off and on for a few years now.
I just started up again ... after about a two years sabbatical.
My favorite mix is
4 Carrots
4 Stalks of Celery
A handful of Parsley
A handful of Spinach
A small piece of Beat
This really makes you feel great.
My research reports the Parsley as the euphoric.
I can easily find out the benefits of all these vegetables by
Googling … but wheatgrass remains a mystery. One of my searches on
wheatgrass produced this:
http://tinyurl.com/2rphaj
This fellow's blog reports wheatgrass as a bit of a hoax.
I need some convincing. I need your counter point.
I'm also looking for a good regular juice group. The one I belong to
has gone spam.
Thanks,
Sam

Karen: I suggest that you buy (2) books:
The Wheatgrass Book - Ann Wigmore (she was the original wheatgrass
guru, deceased but her books live on). They have a foundation in
NM. If you want treatment or classes, they are in NM, FL and Puerto
Rico. You can learn everything you need from the books, but their
growing classes are very good (and not inexpensive). Information is
in The Wheatgrass Book. http://www.wigmore.org/
The other book I recommend is: Wheatgrass, Nature's Finest Medicine
by Steve Meyerowitz. He was a student of Ann's and provides great
information too....
Good luck!

For those that don't have the space for growing trays of wheatgrass
for juicing, Rejeuvelac is a great alternative. About the only
difference is the lack of chlorophyll.
I drink it for the enzyme activity which seems to help my Irritable
Bowel Syndrome(IBS). I'll eventually drink it in place of my morning
coffee.

Sorry, typed it up wrong. I actually soak for a day or two and rinse
the seeds every 12 hours. I also put the seeds in a blender before
fermenting in water. The next batch I'll be using the sprouted seeds
in a salad.

If you read Ann Wigmore and Steven (whatever his name is - the
sprout man), you may get a different idea about the power of
wheatgrass and rejeuvelac. Rejeuvelac is a by-product of wheatgrass
and fermentation. Fermented (cultured) vegetable heal the
gut. Rejeuvelac does the same thing. I'm working on a bad systemic
candida problem and it's improved.

Thank you. I did some the other day and it was okay. It still had
some gunk on the top, but not bad. I'm drinking it.
I have both. I bought the spring seeds because that's what Ann
Wigmore said to do ... but I'm doing more today so I'll use the hard
seeds. Wigmore says to wash the seeds and float them in spring
water for 3 days without touching them. ??? That seems different
from what you do.

So you wash them after 12 hours and then put the water back for 2
days, or do you leave them waterless for the day or two? Then on the
third day you put the water back? I'm a little confused.
The rejeuvelac I'm drinking is pretty clear... looks more like
lemonaide with some of the cloudy stuff on the bottom. I am thinking
that we're both drinking the same thing, huh?
Thanks, Vicki

Hi!
Bragg's ACV vinegar is excellent for SO MANY DIFFERENT REASONS! It is
an awesome "product". The first is it cheap. For us Homeschool Mamas
budget is an issue. It will melt pounds away, if you keep at it
everyday.
It is fermented, which is why it is so good.To make light of the matter,
Let's just look at what a normal cell is and what a cancer cell is. A
normal cell is alkaline, it has to be or oxygen could not be there and
make its energy. We have a substance called adenosine triphosphate
(ATP), which makes biological energy through the use of oxygen
(oxidative phosphorylation). So, it is alkaline and it has a lot of
available molecular oxygen. That is the way we make our energy.
The human cell has the ability to do this, but infectious micro-
organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi, intestinal parasites) and cancer
cells use another method.
Bottom line is that your cells need oxygen. ACV (the process of making
it) takes about 14 days, in which the oxygen is "molded" into the cider
during fermentation.
A Few teaspoons of cider vinegar taken with water each day has been
known to produce amazing results. Cider vinegar can be taken alone or
used in cooking. It can be used as a salad dressing, for pickling, in
making mayonnaise or sprinkled on potato chips or French fries. It can
used as a hot or cold beverage sweetened with honey. The best method of
using apple cider vinegar is in its natural liquid form.
When the body is lacking certain minerals or salts, ill health can be
the result. Toxic build-ups with the body can cause boils, blisters,
acne, etc. Cider vinegar detoxifies and helps with the cleansing and
clotting processes of the blood, by helping along the blood oxidation
process.
Cider vinegar is thought to be beneficial in the treatment of
arthritis, as a beverage or with compresses soaked in hot vinegar
applied directly to the joints. It is also thought to be helpful when
used to treat asthma, nose bleeds, osteoporosis, cancer, candida, high
cholesterol, colds, constipation, muscle cramps, colitis, diabetes,
diarrhea, depression, dizziness, ear discharge, eczema, fatigue,
gallstones, kidney stones, hay fever, headaches, heartburn, hiccups,
indigestion, insomnia, kidney and bladder problems, metabolism, nasal
congestion, sore throats, stiff joints, ulcers and weight loss.
Hope this helps...I know I would live without it!

Welcome to the group Barb,
I think you should be able to get the wheatgrass seeds from any bulk food
store, just get the organic seeds, costs about $3 per kilogram
I would suggest checking out ann wigmores - "the wheatgrass book"
Lots of good info in there, also how to best prepare the growing of the
grass.... plus the book is a pretty good read too!!!!
On another note, check out - ayurveda food, easy to google some of the
recipes..... this is the food i ate when i was vegetarian, im not vegetarian
now as i gather & eat seafood, but i still eat ayurveda food 2-3 times per
week.... really yum.
Ayurveda has been around for over 5000 years & when the food is prepared
properly, it is actually - food as medicine.
Hope this releases some of your concern about daughter being a vegetarian.
Love & light

Hi,
I just joined this group and am looking forward to learning and
sharing information. I was wondering if anyone has any opinions on
the best juicers to use to cut down on the foaming when juicing
wheatgrass. Although it's not the end of the world to have foam in
wheatgrass, I'd prefer a non-aerated version. Is a dedicated
wheatgrass juicer like the Wheateena, or Marvel Red, the best way to
go? I have a Samson Ultra now, and although it's great for most
things (fruit is not the greatest in the Samson, but I usually Vitamix
my fruit with some distilled water, which I like because fruit is so
expensive and don't like wasting anything), I'd like to achieve a
better quality wheatgrass juice.

Subject: [wheatgrass] Rejeuvelac
Importance: High
Hi All....
Hope the new year is going well for everyone.
Does anyone make rejejvelac with wheat berries? The first time I
made it I used berries that I got from a place in Utah. Since I'm in
CO, I decided that I would find seeds and soil locally. Did that...
in fact, I bought seed and soil from the company that grows the grass
for Wild Oats... so I know that its high quality.
Anne Wigmore says to let is sit quietly for 3 days. First time I did
it everything was perfect. The second, third and fourth times I used
the new seed, same jars, etc., and it came out all yuky (like a
slimy, moldy kind of stuff on the top).
Do you have any idea why this would be happening and how I can avoid
it? I washed the seeds first and skimmed off the ones that rose to
the top. Ugh... I don't know what else to do. Would it make a
difference if I changed the room temp or if I let it ferment for a
shorter period of time? Or perhaps, I need to go back to the
original seed source???
I appreciate your input.
Thanks,

Maybe you should try with one once a day and two onces the second week, for a
start. However, if he doesn´t take it very well, you should try with less untill
he gets used to it. Enemas is another good solution.

Subject: [wheatgrass] how much wheatgrass?
Any recommendations on how much wheatgrass to give a 12-YO boy who is
thin and we are trying to detox from mercury from vaccinations.
I was thinking maybe 1-oz. 2x/day. Does anybody do more than this?
Thanks,
Beth

I think that, maybe, the most important thing in growing wheatgrass is WATER.
Not only watering it when it is growing, but watering thoroughly before you
spread the berries is of capital importance. You have to adjust how much water
is alright when it is growing, because if too much, it will promote mold and if
to few, it will not grow enough and dehydrated.

fine, but for those with a more sensitive stomach and varying
metabolisms, it might be cause temporary sick feelings.

making sure the seeds are fresh and the soil is nutrient rich. I
have seen different samples of grown tray grass and some are greener
than others, which I find a result of the soil. The more composted,
the lighter at the root level and the more moist it is. Others may
have different opinions so it will be interesting to hear from them

high when you cut it, although some commercial trays don't get more
than 4 inches high. The hard red winter variety is what I use as
well and find it is greenest at about 5 to 6 inches.

an introduction to your body of alkeline levels that are not

foods which are better for your body. Caffeine is poisonous and
other foods, meats etc have many toxins or preservatives, also not
compatible with natural wheatgrass. You are training your body to be
at it's optimum when you drink wheatgrass juice and an optimum body
craves foods that are good for it. A lethargic toxic body craves
those foods that feed that system.

Thanks to both of you. that does help me. I haven't been watering

kit at HFS and will try that out~

Hello, my name is Karen R. I've joined this group to learn about
wheatgrass, i..e. how it's grown as well as it's health benefits.
The first question I have, and it's probably a really dumb one (sorry): I
keep reading of people growing their wheatgrass in trays in their homes. Does
anyone ever grow it outside, and if so, what type of climate does it need?
I live in southeast Texas where our summers are very hot and humid and our
winters are very mild. Right now the day before Thanksgiving we're in the
high 70s and it won't get "cold" until around Christmas. "Cold" to us is in
the
50s and REALLY cold is mid 30s. Normally our winters vary between 50s and
70s with occasional short spells (3 or 4 days) of the really cold weather.
