Adding LIFE to your years and years to your life!

My wheatgrass is ready!!

Ok, I planted these the 1st of February but I did it in an area that stays just above freezing so it didn't grow too fast.

Promptly juiced an ounce (around noon) and drank it like a shot of tequila. Whew, that is one strong shot of health. I may dilute the next shot down a bit :- )

I'm open to ideas on how best to add this to my regime. I have no health issues except weight and eyesight. I only want to add more greens to my raw journey, and I would love to have my body repair my eyesight. The wheatgrass juicer I have, I had to run the wheatgrass through 3 or 4 times to squeeze out every little drop.

I have Ann Wigmore's The Wheatgrass Book and Steve Meyerowitz, Nature's Finest Medicine but I admit I haven't read the second one yet.

Comment by Tanja on February 17, 2010 at 8:29pm: I liked the wheatgrass. My husband didn't like it much, and complained the whole time it went down, lol....I do need to get a book though, and learn more about it.

Comment by kathleen on February 17, 2010 at 1:59pm: So can you freeze wheat grass juice and still retain the nutrients? For how long can wheat grass remain frozen?

Comment by sherri hilbrand on February 17, 2010 at 1:33pm: Hi Chris.... Isn't it fun to grow things? I too am growing a lovely batch of wheat grass and what a friend of mine and I did is juice it and dilute it (cause..... well I think ya know why!) and we put it into ice cube trays and then the bags that take the air out. I then pop a cube into my smoothies now and then. That is some potent stuff!! My whole refrigerator smelled like wheatgrass until I put it into the air tight bags. This is just an idea for you. I am almost ready to harvest my second batch. I don't know about you but I am truely amazed at all the living food choices there are to add to our day. I absolutely LOVE my raw dill dip for example. Well, enjoy your wheatgrass and I will be watching to see the comments you have coming in. There is soooooo much to learn.
