Wheatgrass is a nutrient-rich type of young grass in the wheat family. It is grown (sprouted) from wheat grain or seed.
Wheatgrass is often used for juicing or added to smoothies. Wheatgrass provides a concentrated amount of nutrients, including iron, calcium, magnesium, amino acids, chlorophyll, and vitamins A, C and E. Its rich nutrient content boosts immunity, kills harmful bacteria in the digestive system, and rids the body of wastes.
