For some folks, the word ‘wheatgrass’ conjures up images of juice bars and health food stores filled with health fanatics.  But have you ever wondered just what it is and why so many folks are so eager to gulp down wheatgrass concoctions? They do know what they’re doing,
As for why the plant has so many fans—a major reason is that it packs a punch when it comes to nutrient density!

Best Organic Wheatgrass contains 13 vitamins as well as all 21 amino acids (including the 9 “essential” amino acids that your body is unable to make for itself). You need all of these nutrients to power up your immune system to protect you from damaging diseases.

Plus, it’s a rich source of the plant pigment chlorophyll. This amazing body detoxifier provides the perfect alkaline balance for the acidic foods Americans commonly eat.

This combination of nutrients many people believe is the secret to optimal health. And here’s why many folks are convinced that wheatgrass could be an effective cancer treatment, too…

According to the Livestrong organization, chemotherapy treatments suppress bone marrow activity (myelotoxicity) which can cause:

• Decreased capacity for carrying oxygen throughout your body
• Insufficient blood cells to boost your immune system
• Decreased blood clotting ability

Myelotoxicity significantly compromises a cancer patient’s immune system.  According to a 2007 study published in Nutrition and Cancer involving 60 breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy treatments, Wheatgrass was shown to boost low levels of white blood cells, which helped prevent this condition from occurring.
