Wheatgrass cultivation
Sow wheat seeds on a fertile plot of land. The seeds germinate and start growing in about 7 days. Make sure you grow it organically (use farm yard manure only). Water the seedlings regularly. It is advisable to raise the crop under the shade of a tree. Harvest the grass after it has grown to a height of about 7 inches (18 cm.)
Consumption
Wash the harvested grass thoroughly. Grind the grass to extract juice. Sip the recommended dose of the juice slowly an hour before or after food. The juice has to be consumed fresh.
Medicinal properties
This health drink is useful for people of all ages. Children should be administered only 5-10 drops of this juice. Adults can take upto 4 table spoons of this juice four times a day.
