Wheat Grass
Wheat Grass is the freshly sprouted first leaves of the wheat plant. These new leaves are packed with nutrients, antioxidants and other goodies. It contains up to 70% chlorophyll, a green pigment that works as an alkaliser.
Wheat Grass is especially high in vitamins A, C and E, as well as iron, magnesium, calcium and amino acids. Wheatgrass benefits are particularly strengthened when taken combined with other supplementary products.

Is wheatgrass gluten free?
It sounds a bit ironic, but wheat grass is gluten free! Data has revealed wheat leaves don’t have any of the gluten proteins, meaning wheatgrass doesn’t have any gluten and is generally safe for people with celiac disease or gluten intolerances. Wheatgrass is gluten free when harvested from a growing wheat plant without any seeds, but it’s up to an individual whether they want to take it if they have a gluten intolerance. Theoretically wheatgrass is safe if you have a wheat allergy, however those with intolerances or allergies are asked to be cautious, due to potential contamination of wheat grass by wheat seeds.
