Abstract
The purpose of the study : is to obtain the best germination stage of wheat grains to obtain wheat grass and to estimate the sensory properties and acceptability of fresh wheat grass beverage with some fruit and vegetable. Wheat grass beverage and its blends were evaluated organoleptically, nutritionally, chemically and biologically. Study the effect of uses these best beverages on the level of cholesterol in the blood and both liver and kidney function. The most important results obtained were as follows: 1-The data show that the best result in organoleptic properties of wheat grass beverage in overall acceptability was the second stage (14 days) for germination of sample No. 11, followed by samples No.12, 10, 8 and 7 respectively. Improving and characterizing functional drinks of green wheat grass beverage with banana and guava, banana, guava, lemon juice and strawberry, and showed that the sensory evaluation and overall acceptability of the best samples No (10, 2, 8 and 1) respectively, of wheat grass beverage containing blends of banana and guava, banana, guava and control (sample 1).While wheat grass beverage containing lemon juice and strawberry were rejected in all its proportions. 2- The chemical and nutritional results of raw materials showed that there were highest values of protein, fat, fiber, minerals, total chlorophyll, vitamin E and flavonoid contents in fresh wheat grass as compared with banana and guava, while fresh wheat grass beverage with banana and guava contains high percentage of protein, ash, fiber, soluble carbohydrates, minerals, flavonoids and phenols. 3-In the study of biological tests: there were significant differences in the weight of rats and the amount of food intake, in groups (9 and 10), which fed on high fats and 1% cholesterol with a dose of 5 ml (G9) and 10ml (G10) beverage of fresh wheat grass with banana and guava / kg body weight . Gave the best results in terms of weight gain, food intake, reduction of cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, total lipid and triglycerides and led to an increase in the value of high-density lipoprotein HDL. As well as improving liver and kidney function compared to other groups. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the beverages which prepared from wheat grass beverage with banana and or guava were have more of their nutritive value, sensory evaluation and biological evaluation, as compared with those prepared from wheat grass (control). So, they consider being as good new nutritive and healthy beverages. Therefore, we recommend the use of wheat grass to obtain food products because of their nutritional value and high health.
