The easiest form of consuming wheat grass is by juicing it along with fruits of your choice. The second way is to make shots which is best for effective results.

About Wheatgrass Shot

Wheatgrass shot is a wellness-drink made with wheatgrass, the young shoots of the whole wheat grain. These shots are prepared by pressing or juicing the wheatgrass. Usually no water or any other liquid is added if made in a slow juicer. Wheatgrass shots can be anywhere in between 2 to 4 ounces (60 to 120 ml) which is been pressed or juiced without the addition of any other ingredient like water or juice. Pure 100% wheatgrass juice is consumed for maximum health benefits. While fruit wheat grass juice can be consumed any time of the day, wheatgrass shots are best consumed on a empty stomach (not the first thing after you wakeup). This post comes after several years of consuming (ON & OFF) this wellness beverage. We initially started juicing wheatgrass with fruits and loved some of the combinations because we there was no strong smell of the grass. I also have a post here on Fruit wheatgrass juice. After a few months, we moved to these shots. More Juice recipesAloe Vera JuiceWatermelon JuiceOrange juiceAmla juicePomegranate juiceCarrot juice

Notes

But let me warn you a few things about wheatgrass.

First if you are allergic to pollen, hay or related stuff, stay away from this. This can cause severe allergies. These shots are not delicious, you will smell the strong grass. It’s like drinking grass. But if you are determined to strengthen your health then yes you will be able to have it.Don’t try this if you are sick. We both are healthy and normal people with no known health issues so we absolutely had no problem. These are best consumed ON & OFF. Take it a few days and then stop. Repeat after several months. When taken on an empty stomach, the nutrients are better absorbed with in few minutes and the detoxification is best as well. But do not take it as a first food after you wake up.I have made this in a slower juicer so the oxidation is minimum, hence a bright color. It may be different if made in a blender.Start with a smaller quantity to check if you have any allergies. I started with just 5 ml and my husband with 30 ml. Also wait and watch for 2 to 3 days after your first dose of shots.

Fresh wheatgrass is available in supermarkets and local organic farms. The live plants are available in pots which can be used as and when needed. Related Recipes
