Healthy Lifestyle Tips

By Kapiva Editorial

A healthy urban lifestyle calls for that one indispensable main: a fully-functional immune system backed with regular detoxification.

When talking about detox, the in-fashion buzzword is Wheatgrass Juice – the latest ingredient to have found a seemingly permanent spot in the World of Natural Healthcare. The benefits of this magic herb rediscovered, and how!

History & Benefits of Wheatgrass

The origin of this herb dates back to more than 5000 years ago (yes, it’s anything but a latest discovery). We owe it all to the Egyptians who chanced upon the young wheat shoots, found it sacred and readily consumed them, learning about its health benefits in the process. Wheatgrass has been in use for thousands of years, as an integral part of Ayurveda.

Prepared from the freshly-sprouted leaves of Triticum Aestivum (the common wheat plant), Wheatgrass Juice comes with a horde of benefits. From improving immune functions, to boosting gut health and detoxifying the liver – this herb is a one-stop wonder. It is house to Vitamins A, C and E, as well as iron, magnesium, calcium and amino acids.

Like any other green plant, Wheatgrass packs in the punch of the pigment chlorophyll. Being the first product of sunlight, chlorophyll contains more light energy than any other food element. Science is testimony to the fact that chlorophyll arrests growth of bacteria.

Wheatgrass Juice wins the race of chlorophyll content – hands-down – owing to its unique harvest technique. Instead of the regular 12-15 day timeline, Kapiva harvests its Wheatgrass 8 days after irrigation, when the chlorophyll content is maximum.

Studies show that regular consumption of the same resulted in the decrease in cholesterol level.

A good gut health is so important

To lead a healthy life in an urban setting, a proper-functioning gut is equally important. Keep your daily probiotics handy at all times. Probiotics are “good” bacteria touted to help maintain digestive health and boost the immune system. They can be found in abundance in Yogurt.

Kapiva Probiotic Gummies are healthy, probiotic supplements, further infused with the goodness of Amla.

Packed with essential vitamins and minerals, these easy-to-use supplements are Gelatin-free too! The perfect health supplement for all the urban health and wellness seekers.
