Product Description
Synopsis
Wheatgrass authority Li Smith describes the outstanding nutritive and therapeutic benefits of consuming wheatgrass juice. From a holistic perspective, she recounts the history of this amazing superfood and its importance within the spiritual traditions of many cultures. Lie also offers home usage and growing instructions and presents a new cleansing and rejuvenation programme. This incorporates wheatgrass, fresh fruits and vegetables, fermented foods, herbs and edible flowers. More than a grain, wheatgrain offers the healing benefits of a primary 'sun-food, converting the sun's rays directly into chlorophyll as well as an abundance of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and enzymes all needed to enhance and optimise health and well-being.

Power Food, 24 Sep 2001
By marika sboros - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wheatgrass: Superfood for a New Millennium (Paperback)
Wheatgrass: Superfood for a New Millennium by Li Smith (Vital Health Publishing) - a small book, big on well-researched, well-illustrated content, refreshingly easy to read. The author takes a comprehensive look at the amazingly regenerative, healing powers of freshly squeezed wheatgrass juice, delving into its history and folk-lore applications through the ages to modern times. Smith tells readers how to grow the grass from scratch (it couldn't be more simple), how to extract the juice correctly to retain all its inherent powerhouse propertes, and how best to use it as an instant super-boost for optimum health.The book is essential reading for anyone seriously concerned with looking and feeling better, not older, as the years go by. -Marika Sboros, Lifestyle Editor, The Star, Johannesburg, South Africa.

There are MUCH better books than this one, 14 Sep 2007
By J. shields "Movie Lover" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wheatgrass: Superfood for a New Millennium (Paperback)
I have read this book in its entirety and was really disappointed. Much of the book is He/She said this, or He/She discovered that, or So&So wrote this. I did not find ANY new or original information anywhere in the book and I found the book itself boring and difficult to finish. Some of the recipies looked good but a lot of them used quite a few ingredients. Some of them require an appliance called a LIQUIDIZER. I have checked every kitchen store in my area and many on the web and none of them had ever heard of anything called a liquidizer. Juicing wheatgrass is a very worthwhile activity just for its health benefits alone, but save your money and pass on this book. I think it was hastily writtten to capitalize on and reap the financial profits on the recent resurgence on Wheatgrass and juicing.
There are four EXCELLENT books on Wheatgrass & Sprouting, and I have also read each of them, they are:
The Wheatgrass Book: How to Grow and Use Wheatgrass to Maximize Your Health and Vitality (Avery Health Guides) by Ann Wigmore. I thought this book was EXCELLENT. It contains a lot of useful and much of it is original information on wheatgrass and its health benefits, how to grow it and so much more. IMHO it is the defininig book on Wheatgrass.
A second book is: Wheatgrass Nature's Finest Medicine: The Complete Guide to Using Grasses to Revitalize Your Health by Steve Meyerowitz. In addition to the abundant information of wheatgrass it contains a large section of customer testimonials on how wheatgrass has improved their health and in many cases saved their lives by removing all traces of the diseases(such as cancer) from their bodies or reversed other diseases(like diabetes) in humans and how one person used it on their pets to treat untreatable diseases. There is also a section on suppliers of seeds and equipment and much more. This is an excellent followup book to the Ann Wigmore book above.
There are also two books on sprouting that are next in line. They are:
The Sprouting Book: How to Grow and Use Sprouts to Maximize Your Health and Vitality (Avery Health Guides) by Ann Wigmore, whom I believe is the mother of Sprouting and Wheatgrass. If you are new to sprouting this book is the place to start. It contains all of the necessary information to become an avid Sproutarian.
A good followup to this one is:
Sprouts The Miracle Food: The Complete Guide to Sprouting by Steve Meyerowitz. It also contains a lot of valuable information and like the Wheatgrass book above it has a lot of resources for suppliers and equipment.
The above four books are very well written and a complete joy to read and contain enough information to make you a perverbial expert on the subjects and they all have plenty of recipies.
Some excellent followups to these four are:
The Hippocrates Diet and Health Program
Be your own doctor;: Let living food be your medicine
Recipes for Longer Life
Our precious pets: God made them for love
I hope this information has helped.
Enjoy your Wheatgrass & Keep On A Juicing.

Raw Food Allergy Help, 19 July 2005
By Heather Flournoy "'Healthy Mother'" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wheatgrass: Superfood for a New Millennium (Paperback)
I especially like the detailed instructions for sprouting things like alfalfa and chick peas and sunflower seeds, and the use of things I don't usually think of right away, like rosemary flowers to flavor juiced vegetables. It also has instructions for making your own tinctures and healing oils, such as a wheatgrass oil for healing scars!
