Guest guest Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 Peter I was wondering, since you gave advice on fasting and some raw food guiding rules, what do you think of wheatgrass juice? According to the rules, is juicing grass ok? How about using wheatgrass juice during the juice days of the fast?

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2003 Report Share Posted February 11, 2003 Nanna, Wheatgrass makes great juice: rich. I would tend to think of something weaker. Of course a juice fast would bring down blood pressure too but not so much as the water fast. It will clear all the sugar out of the blood stream for a start. Peter.

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2003 Report Share Posted February 12, 2003 Thanks Peter for your reply. I was just thinking of wheatgrass, as it is very cleansing, whether it's smart to do during a fast or not. Guess it's worth a try. Personally I have no problems with high blood pressure (actually just tested today: 115/82 but I'd like to do a fast - just need some time off to do it.
