Do you ever wonder how we started to eat what we eat? Did someone look at a cow and say “Wow, that looks tasty!” and that was it? Take wheatgrass, who thought it was a great idea to start to juice and to consume it? The cows where doing it so why shouldn’t we?
It all started in 1930’s by a agricultural chemist by the name Schnabel. He first started experimenting on sick hen’s that where on their death beds. When giving the hens fresh cut grass in attempt to nurse them back to health the hen’s not only recovered, but they produced eggs at a higher rate than the healthy hens!
Encouraged by his results, he began drying and powdering grass for his family and neighbors to supplement their diets.
It has been said that wheatgrass is equal in overall nutritional value to 350 pounds of ordinary garden vegetables! What other benefits come from wheat grass? Find out tomorrow on Benefits of wheat grass.
