I had read about wheatgrass and recently it has become a part of my morning ritual. Maybe I'm crazy but I'm convinced taking it has increased my energy and strength.

According to same of the experts, 2 ounces of wheatgrass is equal to 2 pounds of raw broccoli. It strengthens the immune system, detoxifies the blood, improves circulation, and stimulates digestion. Wheatgrass is rich in chlorophyll, which strengthens the cells, the heart and vascular system. That's some pretty potent stuff.

If you want to try wheatgrass go to a local juice bar. There is one in the Reading Terminal Market. It has a surprising sweetness to it. Otherwise, you'll have to buy a juicer designed for juicing wheat grass (a manual press or electric version). You can also buy a tray of fresh wheat grass from the Iovine Brothers, also in the Reading Terminal Market.

Wheatgrass is a real drink to your health. Bottoms Up!
