excerpts from “Wheatgrass Miracles” by Ann Wigmore
and from “Unlimited
Power” by Anthony Robbins
Energized,
motivated, and blissful
are three great words! These
words might describe someone's mood on a perfect day. This
perfect day could be the outcome of certain factors:
The primary factor is physical health. People
sometimes refuse to admit that the body often controls
motivation. Will power is just not enough.
We wish so much to do good things, to accomplish
goals and to work hard, but we are tired.
How do we fix our health? In studying successful healthy
lives like Ann Wigmore or Anthony Robbins-- one thing is clear…
what one eats directly effects how one feels.
Living, fresh, water-rich food energizes, enables
motivation and makes life blissful!
Living,
green super foods give us that edge we need; they give us energy;
they heal and repair our physical bodies.
Ann Wigmore said “In technological societies, where so
many people live in cities and are far removed from the
countryside, people tend not to eat enough leafy green vegetables
– forgetting the vital importance of the color green in a well
balanced diet. Green
foods are the principle source of vitamins and nutrients which are
essential in protecting, healing and repairing the human body.
The brighter the color, the richer the vegetable is in that
magic ingredient chlorophyll.”
Junk
food and candy, on the other hand, take the vim and vigor out of
us! In his book,
“Unlimited Power” Anthony Robbins stated “We see more and
more evidence every day that the American diet of junk food, fast
food, and additives and chemicals is causing “trapped” wastes
in the body, and those wastes alter the level of oxygenation and
electric energy of the body, contributing to everything from
cancer to crime.” Robbins
poses the question, “What if you started eating healthy,
cleansing, water-content foods and stopped eating the meat and
dairy products that were stressing and clogging up your system?”
We all instinctively know that he is right!
When we eat better, we feel better!
The
best source around to get the rich living minerals that
a person needs is in wheatgrass and barley grass juice. The proof
is in the way one feels.!
One hears people say that workouts, hours
at the office,
sleep, and mood all are better on the days they make sure to get
their shot of grass juice. However,
one daily shot of juice is not the complete magic bullet… one
needs to eat good food too! Ann Wigmore noted
“Because wheatgrass
is such a powerful healer, people think that they can eat as they
please and try to make it up by drinking wheatgrass juice. It is
so unfortunate that people are not aware that what they put into
their bodies on a daily basis is what constitutes health.
Eating unhealthy foods and trying to make up for it by
drinking wheatgrass juice does not in any way solve health
problems. I hope that you will learn that Living Foods are the
most important in getting back to health.”
Wheat
grass and barley
grass have been touted as superfoods by many people including
just recently by Dr. Perricone on Oprah.com.
Many of us would rather just buy a dried supplement such as
spirulina, blue green algae or chlorella rather than growing our
own living super foods. It is easier right?
Ann Wigmore advised against this, she said “.. you should
consider the fact that these foods have been highly processed.
They are single-cell organisms surrounded by a shell that must be
crushed open, allowing the content to oxidize. To limit further
oxidization, the algae are packaged in light proof containers, but
the damage has already been done. In addition the algae are heat
dried at temperatures in excess of 160 Fahrenheit, which further
undermines their digestibility and nutritional value.”
These foods are basically dead by the time they hit the
shelf. She further
states “You can easily grow, harvest
and drink the juice almost seconds after harvesting it, thereby
reaping the full benefits of its many precious qualities, with
absolutely no loss of any of its properties due to processing.”
Gradually
moving oneself toward a living, raw food diet is the
key to having more body energy which will truly make for many
perfect days!
