The nutrients and nutrition you get from organic wheatgrass is mind blowing. And just couple that with the big savings you get by growing wheatgrass at home and you have yourself a winner!
One ounce of wheatgrass juice is equivalent to 2.5 pounds of the best and choicest vegetables.
Of course you can always choose to juice vegetables instead. All you have to do is to select from a ton of different vegetables to get a decent amount of nutrients that’s comparable to what you get from wheat grass, put it all in a juicer, then drink it.
Doesn’t sound so yummy?
It isn’t. That’s why wheatgrass is so darn popular. Pound for pound, buck for buck, second for second, it’s just the better choice.
Below are just some of the healthy goodness you’ll get from wheatgrass nutrition:
- Over 20 Essential and Non-Essential Amino Acids
- Beta Carotene or Vitamin A
- B Vitamins
- Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), Vitamin E and Vitamin K
- Magnesium
- Other Minerals
- Fatty Acids and Enzymes
- Chlorophyll
Wheatgrass in itself is almost a complete protein source.
Compared to carrots, wheatgrass has twice the amount of beta-carotene in it.
Wheat grass is a great source for B Vitamins, from B1 (Thiamine), B2 (Riboflavin), B3 (Niacinamide), B5 (Pantothenic Acid), B6 (Pyridoxine HCl), B12 (Cyanocobalamin)
Some more vitamins, wheatgrass is in abundance of.
Due to wheatgrass’ high concentration of chlorophyll, you get high amounts of magnesium that is also helpful to your body.
Calcium, Iron, Phosphorus, Potassium, Zinc and Selenium
Not to be forgotten, wheatgrass contains essential fatty acids and enzymes that do all kind of wonderful things to your body.
And last but not the least, wheatgrass is high in chlorophyll, the essence of all plant life. Read more about wheatgrass chlorophyll here.
I hope you understand my enthusiasm with wheatgrass more now. And if you’re familiar with culturing kefir from real live kefir grains, growing wheatgrass, harvesting and then juicing it sounds like a lot of fun if you ask me.

I use to grown wheatgrass until I find one more superior in nutrition and every other way. Please read the following:
Cleanse, Alkalize, and Nourish! Get all three by consuming one drink and you can
take it with you when you travel, go to the gym or anywhere for a quick boost! In this highly nutritional, organic powdered product, 4 packets are equivalent to one tray of wheatgrass. Another important thing the packets are used upon opening, not like a jar, which each time it is opened oxidizes and loses its nutritional value. This product is cold dried to maintain its live enzymes and nutrients when combined with water.
This is the only wheatgrass powder in the world grown Aeroponically in 100% purified oxygen; soil free, fungus free and pollution free. The roots contain SOD, cancer fighting agents and 13 amino acids not found in the blades
Another plus, by combining the roots with the blades, the taste is not strong and nauseous as juiced wheatgrass. You can drink this straight (in 8 to 12 ounces of water), add to your morning juice or shake and enjoy! Even kids love it!
