Most people experience symptoms of low energy, ranging from occasional fatigue to chronic exhaustion. Even those who regularly eat healthy and exercise need a boost of vitality. Poor sleep, nutrition, sedentary life and lack of regular exercise, combined with low nutrition density in many of the foods we eat can lead to feelings of drowsiness, lethargy and fatigue.
Often, lack of energy is associated with medical conditions (anemia, kidney disease, diabetes, lung or heart problems, etc.), mental health (depression, anxiety, stress, eating disorders, etc.), consumption of drugs or medications, chronic pain or weight issues. Fatigue is sometimes experienced with memory problems, physical pain and stiffness, mood symptoms, lack of concentration, vision problems and digestive issues.
Wheatgrass is nature’s energy fuel due to its high chlorophyll content. It can help the body build red blood cells, which carry oxygen to different organs and tissues, and it has great cleansing capabilities. Due to these characteristics, wheatgrass can effectively eliminate toxins and promote overall better health and vitality. The list of its benefits are amazing:
- promotes higher metabolism;
- reduces blood pressure by expanding the blood pathways throughout the body;
- provides a great source of vitamins B, C, E, H, K and beta carotene which help eliminate free radicals;
- contains iron, calcium, magnesium, amino acids and key enzymes;
- offers support to the lymphatic system;
- detoxifies the body fast by removing various sources of internal waste;
- regulates blood sugar and improves the immune system;
- creates an alkaline environment which helps eliminate parasites and other disease prone environments.
Wheatgrass can be consumed in small juice amounts (shots) and it can be consumed in fresh, powder or freeze-dried forms. Drinking only 30 ml of freshly squeezed wheatgrass juice is nutritionally equivalent to 1 kg of leafy green vegetables.
This is an easy and fast way to boost energy and vitality while repairing, cleansing and alkalizing the body. Including this superfood in your daily routine will promote energy maintenance and a stronger and healthier body.
