Wheatgrass is the young grass shoots of the wheat seed (berry). It 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, sulphur, 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. One ounce of wheatgrass juice is said to equal 2.5 pounds of vegetables in vitamin and mineral content.
