Organic Wheatgrass Juice Powder

What is Wheatgrass juice powder?

Organic wheatgrass juice powder is derived from organically grown wheatgrass.

Wheatgrass is a common ingredient found in juice bars and health stores all over the globe, and wheatgrass powder is quickly proving to be one of the most popular health supplements in existence.

Wheatgrass is derived from the common wheat plant which is scientifically known as Triticum Aestivum. It comes from the sprouted leaves of the plant and it is loaded full of nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants which do the body a whole world of good.

Wheatgrass can be juiced fresh, or it can be harvested, dried, filtered, and processed into a fine, nutrient-rich powder which can be mixed with water or the beverage of your choosing to make a healthy, nutritionally rich supplement designed to promote general health and wellness.

What are the benefits of organic wheatgrass powder?

There are many health benefits associated with consuming organic wheatgrass juice powder. Here are just a select few of the most important:

Strengthens immunity

One of the most obvious reasons to consume wheatgrass supplements is to boost your immune system. Wheatgrass is loaded full of vitamins, minerals, fiber, antioxidants, and other nutrients which help to keep the immune system strong and healthy.

Wheatgrass supplements can boost immunity and help to prevent and fight off illness and disease and promote longevity in the process.

As mentioned, wheatgrass boosts immunity because it is so high in natural goodness. Wheatgrass is loaded full of vitamins and minerals, including vitamins A, C, D, E, and K, and minerals such as magnesium, zinc, iron, calcium, and potassium.

Can reduce cholesterol

Another benefit of wheatgrass supplements is the fact that they contain ingredients which help to reduce harmful LDL cholesterol, and boost healthy HDL cholesterol. Because of this, wheatgrass powder can help improve cardiovascular health and reduce your risk of serious health issues relating to elevated cholesterol levels.

Promotes satiety

Wheatgrass juice powder supplements are also beneficial for weight loss, due to the fact that they’re rich in soluble fiber that forms a thick paste in the stomach when it comes into contact with water, which can leave you feeling full for longer.

Because the wheatgrass keeps you feeling full for longer, you’ll experience fewer cravings for junk food, and you’ll also feel full for longer, so you’ll eat less. From a weight loss perspective, you couldn’t ask for nothing more.

Does wheatgrass actually work?

People often wonder whether wheatgrass actually works, and while “works” could be used in reference to any number of things, we’ll assume that by ‘works’ people mean does it improve your health? Well, the answer to that is yes.

Organic wheatgrass juice powder is organic so is free from GMOs, as well as artificial chemicals, pesticides, and fertilizers. Not only that, but naturally it’s highly nutritious anyway, as it is crammed full of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, dietary fiber, and more on top.

All of the goodness found in wheatgrass powder helps to play key roles in numerous physiological processes within our bodies which are essential for our growth, development, and our health in general.

Drinking powdered wheatgrass each day is like giving your body the ultimate supplement boost that will help keep it in the best condition imaginable. So, if you’re wondering whether wheatgrass juice powder supplements work in terms of boosting your health and well-being, yes they do.

What is the best way to consume wheatgrass powder?

Another common query that people have when discussing organic wheatgrass juice powder is how they consume it.

Wheatgrass powder is a ready-to-mix powdered supplement that is designed to be consumed quickly and easily. The best way to consume it is to simply add a scoop to a glass of water, or liquid of your choosing, give it a mix, and chug it straight down. Some of the supplements are flavoured, whereas others are unflavoured.

As well as mixing it with water, you can add a scoop to your smoothie, your pancake mix, you can bake with it, stir it into your yoghurt, or if you’re feeling particularly reckless, you could chug it down dry, though we never recommend that you do that.

Is it okay to drink wheatgrass powder every day?

People say that you can have too much of a good thing, but does that mean that you shouldn’t drink it every day? Well, the short answer is no.

Providing that you do not exceed the recommended daily dosage, not only is it okay to drink wheatgrass powder every day, but it is actually healthy and it is recommended that you drink wheatgrass juice powder every day.

How much should you consume each day?

Okay, so, we’ve established that it is perfectly acceptable to consume wheatgrass juice powder on a daily basis as long as you don’t exceed the recommended daily intake, but how much should you consume each day?

Well, according to health experts, it is recommended that you consume around 5g – 15g of powdered wheatgrass each day, combined with around 8oz of water, or the beverage of your choosing.

Again, as mentioned, never exceed the recommended daily intake for powdered wheatgrass.

What is the best time to consume organic wheatgrass juice powder?

In reality, it doesn’t really matter what time you consume organic wheatgrass juice powder. There are no stimulants in it so you can easily consume a glass right before bed if you wish, but at the same time, if you want to drink a glass with your breakfast first thing in the morning when you wake up, that is also okay as well.

The main thing here is that you are getting the wheatgrass inside you, regardless of what time of day you choose to drink it.

How long does it take to work?

If you’re expecting to consume wheatgrass powder, go to bed, and then wake up the next day feeling refreshed, energized, healthy, happy, and like a brand-new person, we’ve got some bad news for you unfortunately. Wheatgrass supplements are not magical and they won’t work miracles, and they certainly won’t make a difference in just one day.

While results will vary and will depend on things such as your diet, exercise regime, lifestyle, age, gender, shape, size, and genetics, you can expect to see and feel an improvement in how you look and feel in around 2 – 6 weeks with consistent use.

Again, to get the most from wheatgrass powder, you must consume it in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle. If you’re eating junk food every day, drinking soda and alcohol, not exercising, and making other unhealthy lifestyle choices, you’ll likely not see or feel any benefits at all. If however, you’re drinking it alongside a healthy diet and lifestyle, results will be more noticeable and much quicker as well.

What’s the difference between wheatgrass and barley grass?

Many people confuse barley grass with wheat grass due to the fact that they’re so similar, and where you find one served or sold, you often find the other. Despite their similarities however, there are some key differences.

Wheat grass is generally much richer in chlorophyll than barley grass, though barley grass is higher in plant-based proteins and amino acids than wheat grass.

As far as nutrients go, both contain very similar amounts of nutrients, it’s simply that barley grass is higher in protein, and wheatgrass contains more chlorophyll which gives it a deeper green colour, that really looks appetizing when making various smoothies and juices.

What’s the difference between moringa and wheatgrass?

Moringa oleifera is derived from the ‘drumstick tree’ as it is also known, which is a native to India, as well as Africa and South America. Moringa is sometimes confused with wheatgrass, despite the fact that it comes from a very different source and is in fact a very different ingredient.

Moringa and wheatgrass are both classed as ‘supergreens’ though in terms of vitamins, moringa has the edge as it contains all essential and non-essential vitamins, including B vitamins. Wheatgrass however, contains more antioxidants and is higher in chlorophyll and certain minerals.

In terms of health benefits, there really isn’t much in it, and so for best results we always recommend that you supplement with both if possible.

Is too much wheatgrass bad for you?

You can have too much of a good thing when it comes to wheatgrass which is why it’s so important to consume the recommended daily amount and not exceed that.

You can of course make yourself unwell if you consume too much wheatgrass, and while it is extremely unlikely to result in serious illness and side effects, there are still risks to be wary of.

Are there any side effects?

As mentioned, you can have too much wheatgrass and if that occurs, potential side effects include:

• Nausea
• Stomach ache
• Stomach cramps
• Diarrhoea
• Constipation

Is powdered wheatgrass the same as fresh?

Powdered wheatgrass in terms of taste and texture is of course different to fresh, but in terms of nutrition, the two are very similar. Pound for pound, fresh is a little higher in nutrients, but because it is powdered it is much easier to consume large amounts, plus the surface area is so high so there’s a good absorption rate.

Is wheatgrass suitable for everyone?

Wheatgrass is generally suitable for nearly everyone, although just to be safe, pregnant and breastfeeding women should NOT consume it as not enough is known about it.

What’s the difference between wheatgrass and wheatgrass powder?

The main difference between wheatgrass and wheatgrass powder, despite the obvious, is the fact that wheatgrass powder is easier to consume and has a larger surface area for improved rates of absorption.
