Raw Foods-Wheatgrass Juice & Greendrinks

• A diet of raw and living foods improves health, boosts immune power, improves mental clarity, and slows aging
• 80% raw and 20% cooked is considered an acceptable balance for those who are well

• Chlorophyll is anti-bacterial and can be used inside and outside the body as a health aid
• It also helps to purify the liver, build the blood's oxygen carrying potential and regulate digestion
• Chlorophyll can be extracted from many plants, but wheatgrass is superior because it has been found to have over 100 elements needed by humans; when grown in organic soil, it absorbs 92 of the known 102 minerals from the soil

• The ideal balance of alkaline foods and acid foods is 80% alkaline and 20% acid

• One ounce contains 103 vitamins, minerals, and amino acids
• One ounce of wheatgrass juice represents as much nutritional value as approximately 2½ pounds of fresh green vegetables
• Wheatgrass juice is also beneficial for people who need to lose weight or cleanse their bodies

• This section contains a recipe for Green Juice (cucumber, celery and kale) and Super Green Juice (cucumber, celery, pea greens, spinach, assorted mung bean spouts, and parsley)

• Sprouts are living foods and contain amazing nutritional value
• They contain such high levels of amino acids, vitamins, and minerals that they are considered to be one of the most perfect foods known to humankind

• Wheatgrass juice is incredibly good for pets

• Our guide provides you with more detailed instructions, but here is a brief overview
• Soak the seeds 6-8 hours in a glass jar or similar container
• allow seeds to sprout for 24-36 hours or until a small tail appears on the seed and rinse the seeds throughout this time
• Keep the temperature of the wheatgrass between 60F – 80F
• Cover the seeds during the initial germination period; the first 3-4 days
• Let the grass grow in indirect sunlight until the blade splits
• Harvest the grass as needed; additional grass may last several day in its tray
• A second growth will appear and can be used for your pets. The second growth is not as nutritious or as sweet as the first
