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.HTHColleenWheatgrass 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 each nutrient, except the one given
below.Wheatgrass juice is immediately absorbed into the bloodstream and gives
