Chlorophyll |
| |
The major reason people choose to make wheatgrass a part of their life is the natural amount of chlorophyll it contains. Chlorophyll is very similar to the structure of hemoglobin which is why chlorophyll is considered the blood of plants.
The main benefits of chlorophyll are broken out into 3 sections:
1. Purification: chlorophyll stops bacterial growth in wounds and fungi in the digestive tract. Deodorizes: eliminates bad breath and body odor
Removes drug deposits and counteracts all toxins, deactivates many carcinogens
Halts tooth decay and gum infection (when used as a tooth powder)
2. Anti Inflammation: chlorophyll counteracts the following inflammations: sore throat, pyorrhea, gingivitis, stomach and intestinal inflammation, ulcers, skin inflammations, arthritis, and pancreatitis.
3. Renewal: chlorophyll builds blood, renews tissue, counteracts radiation, promotes healthful intestinal flora, improves liver function, and activates enzymes to produce vitamins A, E, and K.

Detoxification |
| |
Wheatgrass contains enzymes which digest the toxins in your body. The toxins accumulated in your body are from foods which are unable to rid or digest themselves. Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) and P4D1 are part of the digestive enzyme that play vital roles in slowing the cell deterioration process thus slowing the aging process. P4D1 also serves as an anti-inflammatory. You will experience the cleansing process when using amOrganics wheatgrass, but don't panic - this means it's working! |
Protein |
| |
Wheatgrass contains about 20% protein; which is similar to the composition of most meats. However the amino acid / protein profile is quite different. |
Vitamin A |
| |
The chlorophyll in wheatgrass activates enzymes that produce vitamins E and K and help convert carotene into vitamin A. The green source of carotene converts more than twice as much of their carotene into vitamin A.
