I find that Mother Nature...not the scriptures make injesting FRESH barley green juice difficult....and The optimum health clinic in California...Hippocrates in West Palm for instance do not seem to use it for healing purposes. Yes, I am sure that it has many benifits But the taste is not easy to get down. Plus FREEZE DRIED and POWDERED substitues are quick and EASY.....but nowhere near the same as a LIVE food. People are eating more and more DEAD food and that is the reason(my opinion...and this is a forum) DRUGSTORES are now about 2 1/2 miles apart from each other....sometimes across the street from one another!! None are so blind as those who will not see....I just hope they change the name of this Planet to GREED instead of Earth....Before I die! I do not do ANY Smoke and mirrors....Just a simple Farmer......providing FRESH wheatgrass to the public ...The PEOPLE try to get ....Cleansing, Healing, Rejuvination and ENERGY,stamina and focus form injesting the juice. I hear often how the doctors "practicing " medicine are dissmayed by the blood counts going up...and other positive things happening while giving patients CHEMO(chemical therapy) and Radiation. Go figure......Hear any good Barley green stories lately. Take care of someone who has been bed ridden for the past 9 months after being treated....and you may become out spoken also. Do not drink the fresh juice. Lead a horse to water etc.
