Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass Powder: How to Drink & Benefits

Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass Powder is sold in leading drug stores like Mercury Drug and Watsons in the Philippines. I started drinking Easy Pha-Max wheatgrass powder after suffering from Peptic Acid Disease in 2013. This is caused by eating too many acidic food that cause irritation in my stomach like soft drinks, junk food, sugary and fatty foods. Wheatgrass is highly alkaline (the opposite of acidic), like most vegetables that we eat.

I’d like to share more about eating a highly alkaline diet but for this blog post, I will share how I drink wheat grass powder and the top benefits I personally experienced.

How to Prepare Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass

I now drink the pure Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass powder instead of the wheatgrass with honey version. Do the same if you are trying to limit your sugar intake. To prepare the pure wheat grass powder, just mix 1 2g sachet with 1 cup of water. I like preparing my wheatgrass with room temperature water.

How to Drink Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass (Intake/Frequency)

1. Twice a day – Ideally, Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass should be taken twice a day in the morning and in the evening. I did this while I was suffering from acidity.

Morning: So, right after waking up I drink 1 glass of Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass with honey then wait 30 minutes before taking my solid breakfast.

Evening: 2 hours after dinner or right before going to bed, I will also drink Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass with honey.

If you want to reap the top alkaline benefits, I personally suggest skipping coffee for breakfast i.e. not in the same meal with your wheat grass. This is because coffee is acidic which is the complete opposite of wheatgrass.

Benefits & results: When I drank Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass, my bowel movement became regular in the morning (after breakfast). It also helped healing my acid stomach and preventing recurrence of hyper-acidity. Best of all and the top most surprising & unexpected benefit is fairer and smoother skin. People commented on how “white” (fair) my complexion is and asked me what kind of glutathione or whitening pills I am taking. Of course, I wasn’t taking any of those supplements – just wheat grass.

2. Once a day – I took a break from drinking Easy Pha-Max with honey, primarily because of the cost about P35 per sachet. This December and now that I rigorously work out/exercise thrice a week, I restarted taking it as a supplement and to bring back the glow to my skin. I now drink the pure Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass (2 grams, no sugar) every morning right after waking up.

I drink wheat grass on top of my protein supplements for my workout needs

Benefits & results: It’s too early to say since I only started a few weeks ago, but now I am more confident that I am getting more nutrients that my body needs. For someone who is trying to build muscle or just trying to get fit in general, supplements are always a consideration for optimum performance, muscle & body repair.

Wheatgrass contains the following:

1. 17 kinds of amino acids
2. 13 vitamins
3. 10 minerals
4. Fiber
5. Chlorophyll
6. Over 100 types of enzymes

Wheatgrass is also perfect for people like me who want to focus on nutrition vs. loading up on food, some of which are empty calories (food that do not contain essential nutrients). I wish I can always eat lots of green vegetables and reach my caloric requirements with healthy food, when I can’t – it’s nice to think at least, I’ve consumed wheatgrass early on in the day.

I recommend it to fellow bloggers and mommies who lead a busy and sometimes, stressful lifestyle. There’s a saying that if you take care of your body, it will take care of you. If my budget permits and the pure wheat grass variety of Easy-Phamax is cheaper, I’d like to take it twice a day to see & feel better results. It’s going to be one of my “Mommy New Year Resolutions” for 2016.
