[ 7 Great Health Benefits of Wheat Grass]

1. It's Full of Purifying Properties

Have you ever tried drinking a shot of wheatgrass? If not, then you might want to consider getting your hands on some, since wheatgrass contains a whole host of powerful health-related properties, which is why nutritionists around the world unsurprisingly refer to it as a superfood.

Here are 7 reasons why you should definitely make wheat grass an essential part of your diet:

Wheatgrass is full of amazing components that help to purify your body. Not only will it remove plenty of toxins from inside your body, but it'll also get rid of many carcinogenic agents and heavy metals from within your liver and bloodstream.

2. It speeds Up Your Thyroid.

If you're trying to lose weight, then you should definitely add some wheatgrass to your 

diet. This is because wheatgrass helps to stimulate your thyroid gland, which in turn boosts your body's base metabolic rate, thereby assisting in burning off extra calories.

3. It Lowers Cholesterol In High Fat Diets.

When you add wheatgrass to a high-fat diet, you'll not only end up reducing the amount 

of bad cholesterol (LDL) in your body but you'll also increase the amount of good
cholesterol (HDL) that your body so badly needs. As an added bonus, it also helps
to reduce your blood by dilating many of your body's blood pathways.

4. It Boots Your Immune System.

Wheatgrass contains more vitamin C than oranges as well as more vitamin A 
than carrots. This is why adding wheatgrass to your diet will result in a boost to 
your immunity, thereby reducing your likelihood of catching a cold, flu, or other 
more serious diseases, such as bronchitis.

5. It's a Natural Energizer

Taking a 2oz shot of wheatgrass before or after workingout will help keep exhaustion 
at bay,leaving you feeling satisfied and full of life. This is because wheatgrass has
the incredible ability to supply red blood cells to the entire body, keeping it
well-oxygenated.

6. It Helps to Purify the Air Around You

Thanks to wheatgrass' oxygen-promoting properties, it can not only help you from within 

your body but from the outside as well. Many people find that placing a tray of wheatgrass 

beside their bed helps them get a better night's sleep. You can also leave wheatgrass 

growing around your home or office to help rid your environment of any nasty toxins in 

the air, which helps to keep you healthier, happier, and more alert.

7. Its Benefits Are Still Being Discovered.

With every year that passes, scientists keep on discovering more and more 
benefits of this wonderful superfood. Apart from all of the benefits mentioned 
above, researchers now believe that wheatgrass could be a vital tool to help
the well-being of cancer sufferers, particularly when it comes to colon, liver,
stomach and gastrointestinal cancer cases.
