A healthy Mom is a healthy baby...

Below is some info I've had on Wheatgrass.

Anyone who takes it and gets sick to their stomach, has toxins they need to get
rid of. So if you have no nausea, then you should be ok. It purges drugs from
the body and it would most likely be thru the urine, your eliminating organs.
Cleanses the liver.

Wheatgrass is the young grass shoots of the wheatberry. The wheatgrass plant
contains high concentrations of chlorophyll, active enzymes, amino acids,
vitamins, and other nutrients. Wheatgrass is one of the richest sources of
vitamin A and vitamin C, calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus,
sodium, sulfur, zinc, cobalt, and protein.

Wheatgrass is considered to be a complete food because it contains every amino
acid, vitamin, and mineral (some in only trace amounts) necessary for human
nutrition. No complete nutrition analysis of wheatgrass or wheatgrass juice is
available in the literature. It is mentioned that 1 ounce of fresh wheatgrass
juice is equivalent 2.5 pounds of vegetables in nutritional value. 1 ounce of
wheatgrass has more vitamin C than 1 ounce of oranges. 1 ounce of wheatgrass has
twice the vitamin A in 1 ounce of carrots. It is said that 25ml of wheatgrass is
equivalent in vitamins, minerals and amino acids to a kilogram of fresh garden
vegetables in nutritional value.
The above information on nutrition values of wheatgrass has been taken from
different web sites and books, but we could not find a detailed analysis for
