Description
Green foods – Cereal grass has always been an important part of the human diet. But despite recommendations from mothers, doctors, and nutritionists to “eat more green,” the typical American diet does not include one or more daily servings of dark green leafy vegetables. Cereal grasses are young plants that grow to produce grains such as wheat and barley. Because they are such concentrated sources of beta-carotene, chlorophyll, fiber, vitamins, minerals, and other food factors, the demand for wheat grass and barley grass has increased dramatically in the last decade. Here, at last, is the complete source of information on cereal grass. Included is a review of the research documenting why dark green vegetables are essential to the daily diet.
Ronald L. Seibold, M.S., is a rural sociologist who has spent most of the last twenty years working to save farmland from unenlightened development and chemical abuse. Cereal grass has been a staple in his diet since 1975. Years of research on cereal grasses and green foods lead to his sincere belief that wheat and barley grasses are the most convenient and ecologically sound sources of green vegetable nutrition.
