Juice it up!

Banyak kelebihan minum wheatgrass juice nie sebenarnya... Walaupun tak sedap dan kalau tak bernasib baik boleh membuatkan anda cirit birit sebelum sempat anda sampai di rumah sebab jus nie hanya mengambil masa beberapa minit untuk dihadamkan. Heheh! Dengan hanya minum 1 shot wheatgrass juice (lebih kurang 20ml), kita akan dapat vitamin, mineral, dan enzyme yang badan kita perlukan.

Wheatgrass nie jugak boleh jadi macam cleanser yang bertindak balas secara spontan terhadap toksin dan mukus dalam perut. Selain mengandungi kalsium, potassium, dan magnesium yang tinggi, kandungan klorofil yang memang tinggi giler dalam jus nie boleh bawak keluar toksin dari dalam sel.

Disebabkan jus nie sangat efektif dan highly potent, kita hanya boleh minum 1 shot je (patutlah dia bagi sikit je semalam!) untuk permulaan. Kalau minum lebih, nanti kita boleh jadi macam tak sedap perut, loya, muntah, atau lebih teruk cirit birit disebabkan oleh cleansing effect oleh jus tue. Nie ada petikan yang saya jumpa dalam sebuah website tentang jus wheatgrass nie :

• Chlorophyll content of wheatgrass provides some protection from carcinogens. This protection is said to come from chlorophylls ability to strengthen cells, detoxify the liver & bloodstream and chemically neutralize pollutants.

The article suggests the following clinical uses for chlorophyll: to clear up foul-smelling odors, neutralize strep infections, heal wounds, hasten skin grafting, cure chronic sinusitis, overcome chronic inner ear inflammation and infections, reduce varicose veins and heal leg ulcers, eliminate impetigo and other scabby eruptions, heal rectal sores, successfully treat inflammation of the uterine cervix, get rid of parasitic vaginal infections, reduce typhoid fever and cure advanced pyorrhea in many cases.
