Green drinks are a great way of taking in some of your daily vegetables. Green drinks usually consist of one or several of the following: Wheat grass, Spirulina, Chlorella, Barley grass, Broccoli and spinach. Typically, to improve palatability, various fruit juices are mixed in with the greens.
Benefits Of Wheatgrass Shots
There are claims that a shot of wheat grass juice is equivalent to a kilogram of vegetables. There is no scientific research to back this up. However, there are definitely benefits to be had from drinking greens.
The Benefits of Green Drinks
Many of the greens available in drinks, are high in various enzymes, phytochemicals, and nutrients.
Wheat grass in particular, contains 70% chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is what gives plants their green pigment, and also has many benefits for humans. Studies have shown that chlorophyll aids in the creation of red blood cells, wound healing and also has antioxidant/anti-inflammatory properties.
Spirulina, spinach, chlorella, broccoli and barley grass are all packed with vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals. Phytochemicals are shown to help protect people from various forms of disease, including heart disease, artery damage, premature aging and even cancer.
While a shot of wheat grass juice may or may not be the same as eating a kilogram of vegetables, it certainly has enough benefits to make it worth your time and hard earned money.
Get your fix of greens at any health food store or online. You can buy these greens in powdered form, or premixed with juice.
One of my favorite pre-made juices, is called green machine by Naked Juice.
Mixing your own is the cheapest way to go. One large container should last you a month, and will cost a fraction of drinking bottled greens every day.
