I am soooooo very new to this. I have just discovered wheatgrass and purchased it in frozen cubes from an organic food store...actually...I like the taste! I have been drinking 1 shot a day, and just ordered 3 wheatgrass books from Amazon to continue my study...ok...here is the dumb question...is there any reason you cant grow the sprouts and simply eat them rather than juicing? Are they horrible tasting or what? (OK...STOP laughing!...told you I am new!
Does anyone have a recommendation on inexpensive juicers or sprout starter kits? What other sprouts are really beneficial? One of the main reasons I want to do this is I am hypothroid and take synthroid every day and will for life...my case is pretty bad...so I have a tremendous battle with my weight and my energy is nonexistent,,,any info on using wheatgrass with this condition is VERY welcome! I look forward to chatting with many of you and getting the true inside scoops! Blessings.... |

First....Inexpensive????
With the PRICE of Food ...Drugs....GAS and Health care....Plus EXTENTED warrenties on crap that is not made to last....just to keeep the masses working and feeding the rich at the top!
You will have to name a few things you purchased recently that made you feel you had a dollar in your pocket! It is now worth about 50 cents in Spain for instance. For about $85.oo you can buy a decent hand crank juicer from Tri-best...The Z-manuel. I sell only the Omega 8005 about $249.oo Drinking DEAD FROZEN wheagrass is rediculous..... TRY the FRESH wheatgrass offered in so many locations across the country...or try growing try growing some of your own. You mention a cronic weight problem......and you are taking a man made DRUG with side effects to HELP YOU? Try not eating any Dairy products....for 30 days....and Eat no bread...pasta....rice...potatoes or sweet potatoes or PEANUTS also for 30 DAYS... BUT YOU MAY EAT ALL THE>>>> Meat>>>>Fruits>>>>and Vegtables all you may possibly comsume! RESULTS if you do not KID YOURSELF should be a weight loss of about 30 pounds..in 30 DAYS!!!4 shots of FRESH wheatgrass juice in the morning and the evening will help the diet along also. This is NOT the Atkins diet...It is known as a HUNTERS DIET'S.... Been there ...done that...this one works.....if you do it. |

Thank you both for your replies. I have ordered a wheatgrass sprouter and an inexpensive handcranked juicer. I chose a Lexen...I read a lot of good reviews about it. It should come in today or tomorrow so I cant eait to get started.
I appreciate your answer to my question about actually eating the grass Grassman. I received my 3 wheatgrass books I ordered and have been devouring them...Ive learned quite a few things that can be done with the pulp after juicing...especially to the complexion...I cant wait to try that! Might look funny...but oh well...lol! Also Whest...yes...I do have to take a manmade drug with synthroid. My thyroid is dead and cannot manufacture the thyroid hormones I need. believe me, it is horrible when Im not on medication....Im hoping the wheatgrass does help me...but Im not prepared to give up the medication I know I will have to use the rest of my life. When Im not on it, I could sleep 20 hours out of every day. The perpetual tiredness and no metabolism is agony. The medicine helps a lot and Im hoping the wheatgrass adds to it. Again...thanks for your comments! |

Good IDEA to skip the .......
Healthy Juicer....Made for cheap(you get what you pay for ).....and the customer service I heard from people who use our wheatgrass....is TERRIBLE!.
LEXAN>>>>GREAT choice......I also recommend the Tri-Best Z-Manuel Juicer....both seem to be 100% more durable than the Fragile Healthy Juicer. (sold them for a short period of time...got TOO many complaints...product and service). Thank you for taking MY ignorance away about your condition. I am hoping that the FRESH wheatgrass juice...with time will BALANCE your metabolics.....and rejuvinate your thiroid......STRANGER things have happenned DRINKING a 100% non-toxic (No side effects) beverage (BEST food you will ever put into your body...like drinking pure sunshine!)....Caled FRESH wheatgrass Juice. Your positive attitude seems tremendous....Keep it up.....It also counts as much as changeing your diet and lifestyle. If you watch Televsion.....STOP for a month....and relive your brain of all the man made Drugs and problems that are PUSHED on the public.....24/7. (my opinion). I DVR 2 or 3 shows a week.....And I fast forward ALL the commercials. EASY. Natures Finest Medicine should be one of the book's that you purchased recently...by Steve Meryowitz(a friend).... Keep us posted.... God Bless, Eat fresh and stay green and BE Healthy! ps. Remember when you start to drink more nad more wheatgrass....you will DETOX....That may take a day or two....or somestimes WEEKS....It will pass. And then the ENERGY...stamina and FOCUS....Will be the gift YOU are seking. Peace |

By the way GRASSMAN 777.......
I do not know WHERE you live....But the cost of a 50lb. bag of CERTIFIED ORGANIC Sprouting Berries(Hard Red Spring wheat) Has MORE than doubled in cost in the past 9 years!
The difference from being STUPID and being ignorant is ONE....you just do not know....Two....you know but you ignore the Facts.... With the cost of FOOD....Medication.....Gasoline!...and so called Health care. Where do you live GRASSMAN 777..... I want to move there and have a economical space near you. We sell Organic SPROUTING berries(not cereal or grain)....for $1.75 a pound.....and have not INCREASED the price....although a bag of wheat INCREASED by a $1.oo a bag about 6 months ago! Guess I am just a bastard. oh well. Gone fishing....Inverness of course. |

At $3.45 a pound for Organic .......
Hard Red Wheat Berries(seeds)........
YOU ARE CORRECT IN STATING THAT THOSE PEOPLE ARE marking up the cost of their product!... My opinion (now that I viewed their website). I Thank GOD everyday day that I DO NOT have to PARONIZE anyone to pay my bills or feed myself. It's not what you can take with you when you die.....It's WHAT you can leave behind.......heard that somewhere! I was ignorant GRASSMAN 777.....NOW I know what you meant about pricey! ps...Sweet and dry Wheatgrass Wine will be out by the end of this year...NO health claims whatsoever....but a orginal true novelty. Go figure? |
