For those of you who can’t get enough of juicing, why not load up with some super healthy wheatgrass, or add it into a smoothie.
Wheatgrass is one of nature's superfoods. Spelt is an ancient type of whole grain wheat that hasn’t been developed for its gluten or starch properties. It is a type of hulled wheat that has been cultivated since approximately 5000 BC. Spelt was an important staple food in parts of Europe from the Bronze Age to medieval times. In recent years it has seen a resurgence in popularity.
We have chosen to use organic spelt for our whole leaf wheatgrass because of it's nutty and mildly grassy taste. Spelt when juiced or added to a smoothie is sweeter, and it’s a heritage grain so has not been cross-bred as much as wheat has. Being a wholegrain it is an excellent source of dietary fibre, which helps slow down digestion and absorption, reducing blood sugar spikes. High fibre intake has also been linked with a reduced risk of obesity, heart disease and type 2 diabetes. It also contains carbohydrates, protein, iron, manganese, magnesium, phosphorous, zinc, and Vitamins A, B1, B3 (Niacin) B6, C and E.
If you have a surplus of leaves why not juice them and then freeze them in ice-cube trays for future use. Just pop them in as you make your smoothie. That should put a spring in your step!
