It's no better or worse than any other green.

50 million cows can't be wrong!
I have heard the claims also. Much hype. I never bothered to look for peer reviewed studies on wheat grass. Like Marius said, just another green.

Why eat grass of any kind when you can eat kale.
CKLanguage and writing were also made available, the poetry of Khitai, the philosophy of Sung; and he also came to know the pleasures of women, when he was bred to the finest stock.

^^^^This. Wheat grass contains lots of vitamins and minerals, but so does, say, spinach, as a comparison.Originally Posted by Marius_Ursus
If you like it, go for it; it's certainly good for you. Just be aware that it doesn't have any special properties over other veggies.No brain, no gain.

Guys you do know you don't EAT the wheatgrass, right?
I used to grow it on a windowsill and juice it. It's a fun hobby.
The boost you get from it is amazing. Drink two dixie cups full and see what happens. I used to drink about a dixie cup a day in the morning with my OJ.
The taste is awful according to some. Also you burp up the taste for a while too. Personally I like the taste, but I am in a small minority.
Interesting fact: Chlorophyll and blood are chemically very similar. Which makes sense, since chlorophyll is essentially "plant blood".[[[]==[]]] [[[]==[]]]

You can eat wheat grass if you want to. It's not poisonous.
The flavor of the juice is citrusy with a hint of...well...grass. I like it a lot."Blessed be the Lord my rock, who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle." - Psalm 144:1

How well does it juice in your average juicer? I heard you need a special juicer just for wheat grass, is that true or not? ThanksOriginally Posted by styken

I will have to look into this, since I was thinking about doing it again, but got rid of my juicer. I'm not sure about the juicers you find in Target/Walmart, never used one.Originally Posted by BecICan
My juicer was a "special juicer", it was a heavy as a vise cast iron deal with a crank. The grass does tend to bind up into rope, perhaps cutting it into smaller pieces would help.[[[]==[]]] [[[]==[]]]

I have a green tea/wheat Grass comination that tastes pretty good.
