Is wheat grass good for you???

Question

I've seen you can get wheat grass shots at Jamba Juice but never had the guts to try it. People I know say you throw up the first time you drink it,that's how bad it is!!! So I guess it's not good for you.... but i'm not sure!!! Please Help.

Answer 1

The myth that wheatgrass (or wheatgrass juice) is good for you goes back a long way. There is an article about it in the current Skeptic Magazine. But there is no evidence to back the wildly broad claims for its virtues.

Answer 2

yes. if you're a cow

Answer 3

I've watched my boyfriend drink his shots and he doesn't throw up...even the first time he tried it.

They wouldn't sell something that was bad for you at a place like Jamba Juice...

People can eat dandelion leaves right out of their garden so all in all, taking a shot of wheat grass is not going to harm you in any way.

Answer 4

YES Wheatgrass contains at least 13 vitamins (several are antioxidants), including B12, many minerals and trace elements, including selenium, and all 20 amino acids. which is good for the body. It also contains the hormone abscisic acid, the antioxidant enzyme SOD. It is also an alternative treatment for cancer. Good Luck.

I THINK IT ALSO IN CAPSULE.
