CEREAL GRASSES

 

 

 

S.A.F.E. Foods™ has the largest range of cereal grasses available. These ‘green foods’ are the ideal fast food provided by nature to support busy lifestyles and growing children.

Organically grown 'live' cereal grass whole foods are rich in flavour, colour and nutrition.

The comprehensive range of amino acids naturally contained in young green leaves of cereal grasses ensure high energy levels and improved body function, bringing a feeling of well being.

The S.A.F.E. range includes ‘live’ whole foods in the form of powder, capsules or liquid.

You can choose from the following:

  • Green Barley Powder
  • Green Barley Plus (in powder or capsules)
  • Wheat Grass Powder
  • Alfalfa Powder
  • Spelt Grass Powder
  • Ener-G-food (in powder or capsules)
  • Rev Plus (liquid - fermented for instant energy)

Green Barley, Wheat Grass, Alfalfa, Spelt and Alfalfa are complete organically grown 'living' foods with nature’s inimitable blend and balance of nutrients.

 Each of these highly nutritious foods is produced from the young shoots of barley, wheat, spelt or alfalfa (Lucerne) when they are at their most nutritious and tender growth stage.

The green barley, wheat and spelt shoots and alfalfa leaves are harvested and dried in a de-humidified chamber at body temperature, ensuring the product is neither heated nor chilled, thus preserving all of the valuable nutrients in these wonderful foods.

Being in its whole raw state Green Barley/Wheat Grass/Alfalfa/Spelt provides the body with the complete range of nutrients necessary for it to function as designed.

It is important to recognize that the delicate chemical balance of the body is easily disturbed by deficiencies on the one hand and by excesses of toxic chemicals on the other.

This factor is responsible for gradually eroding correct body function and leads to an inevitable disease pattern.

All body tissues, including bone, skin, connective tissue, organs and blood are comprised of cells.

An undernourished cell can not perform the function it is designed to do and when coupled with a toxic overload, will degenerate, which can consequently lead to the degeneration of the body.

The needs of each cell are entirely relevant to the needs of the body and nutrition begins at this cellular level.

The type of nutrition required by the cell is available through 'living' organic whole food which has not been destroyed by processing.

An example of 'living' organic whole food is Green Barley Plus, which is a high quality food containing a wide spectrum of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, accompanied by enzymes - the 'life force'.

It is vital for food to contain the spectrum of essential elements (approximately 46 elements comprising vitamins, minerals and amino acids) which are synergistic (dependant upon one another for utilization within the cell) so that the cell can pick and choose the required nutrients for its needs and efficiently dispose of those not required at the time.

Organically grown green barley/wheat/alfalfa/spelt leaves contain this broad spectrum of vitamins, minerals (including iron, calcium and potassium), amino acids (protein), enzymes and chlorophyll.

The chlorophyll and enzymes are carefully preserved at low temperatures during the dehydration process. Chlorophyll is highly beneficial for building and replenishing blood cells.

Our diets should contain a high proportion of raw living foods

Many people achieve this by juicing vegetables and fruits daily. However, this requires buying or growing large quantities of fruit and vegetables.

Buying or growing large quantities requires storage, which means that freshly picked produce being stored without being correctly dehydrated loses vital nutrition.

Also, when ill or stressed, juicing can be energy sapping and exhausting, becoming a difficult and time consuming chore, especially cleaning up afterwards.

When rehydrated, correctly dried cereal grasses provide almost the same nutrition as the freshly harvested green leaves.

Dehydrated cereal grasses can be simply rehydrated with healthy liquids, i.e. clean water, or fruit juices (preferably organic), or fresh vegetable juices (preferably organic), or organic rice milk, etc.

You will find this young nutritious 'live' whole food more economical than juicing and provides more natural fibre, plus there is virtually no mess to clean up.

But for those who enjoy their fresh juices and don't mind spending the extra time in preparation, cereal grasses added to fresh juices can enhance both the flavour and nutritious content, plus provide vital natural fibre.

The young leaves of green barley/wheat/alfalfa/spelt are gluten free.

The rich green leaves are the grass phase of the plant's growth and not the grain.

Cereal grasses are extremely beneficial foods for people with gluten intolerance, containing many essential vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes and natural antioxidants.

Cereal grasses are also highly suitable for vegetarian diets, particularly vegan as the young leaves are high in iron and an easily assimilated form of Vitamin B12.

You can embrace your busy lifestyle with energy and confidence by including all the goodness of nature’s 'life force' contained in S.A.F.E.  cereal grasses into your daily dietary routine at a cost of LESS than 55 New Zealand cents a day.

S.A.F.E.’s cereal grasses are organically and naturally grown in mineral rich soils to provide you with a balanced abundance of raw natural whole food nutrition.

S.A.F.E.’s cereal grasses are TOTALLY NATURAL, are processed without heat to preserve all the nutrients contained within the young green leaves and DO NOT CONTAIN chemical additives, added sugars, taste enhancers, colours or preservatives.

 

SERVING SUGGESTIONS...

When one begins to consume live organically grown food, such as Green Barley, Wheat Grass/ Alfalfa or Spelt, it can be expected that the sudden exodus of toxins from the cells into the system may be experienced physically.

It is, therefore, recommended to begin slowly.

In their dehydrated form S.A.F.E. Foods™ cereal grasses may be consumed by  being sprinkled onto salad, or your favourite cold cereal, or other cold or room temperature dishes.

The powder may also be blended with honey, or shaken (or blended) in your choice of chilled, cool or blood temperature liquid.

Cereal grasses are delicious in your favourite smoothie.

When first starting to use cereal grasses, it is suggested to start with small amounts and slowly increase the amount consumed to between 1-4 teaspoons a day.

The cautious approach is because of the detoxifying effect that the sudden introduction of larger amounts of ‘live’ green nutrition can produce.

This does not happen to everyone, but if you haven’t used cereal grasses before and have had a diet that has included little raw food, then it may affect you.
