Spelt is an ancient whole grain. 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, particularly for those who love juicing. We, like our pets, are unable to unlock the nutrients from wheatgrass in its whole-wheat form, so it needs to be juiced or powdered in order to achieve this. We offer our wheatgrass in a powdered form for those who do not have a juicer, or are looking for a more convenient way to consume their wheatgrass. In this convenient form it is so simple to add to your meals and smoothies (just sprinkle one teaspoon in as you are making it). Also ideal for those on the go, camping or hiking, sprinkle a teaspoon over your meal.
We have chosen to use organic spelt because of its nutty and a mildly grassy taste. 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.
Organic wheatgrass powder contains an abundance of chlorophyll, which helps detoxify and cleanse the body while eliminating harmful toxins. Chlorophyll is also the reason wheatgrass has an alkalizing effect on the body, balancing pH levels and correcting a build-up of acids, which can inhibit the body’s ability to absorb nutrients. This alkalizing process also helps deliver oxygen to your cells, giving you a boost of energy. Wheatgrass enhances your body’s ability to ward off infections because it contains immune-boosting nutrients like beta-carotene. By weight, wheatgrass is approximately 85% pure plant protein and is made up of more than 20 amino acids. Our organic wheatgrass powder is made from dehydrated wheatgrass to preserve active enzymes and maintain a naturally-rich nutrient profile. Store it in a cool, dark place and sprinkle a teaspoon full over your meal, or add to a smoothie. Your adult cats and dogs will also enjoy a sprinkle over their food once or twice a week, to complement their diet and aid digestion.
