GREAT VALUE EXPLAINED – WHY WE CAN BEAT THE COMPETITION!

Here is the difference between us and the rest:  We sell giant wholesale sized GLASS jars at incredibly low prices – (€59.95 for 1400 organic tablets and €54.95 for organic powder)  – saving you a lot of cash. Here’s why…

The majority of those “great deals” are actually over processed synthetic varieties – defeating the entire purpose of taking Organic WheatGrass in the first place!

Other’s tout their low price – but take a closer look. What you’re actually getting are small, plastic containers with only a 2 week supply. When you compare these product gram for gram or tablet for tablet with ours, Organic WheatGrass™ from Wheatgrass.ie is actually a much better buy!

Uncertified wheatgrass is NOT all natural and organic. It will most certainly be tainted with pesticides, chemical sprays and who knows what else – you will be ingesting a lot more than you bargained for!

When you purchase from us you can be assured of obtaining the highest quality product, at a fair and reasonable price. Try our all-organic WheatGrass™ today – a full 3 - 4 month supply, in sterile glass jars – and is absolutely guaranteed to be safe, fresh and potent.

HOW CAN WheatGrass™ HELP ME?

WheatGrass™ is nutritionally equivalent to a spinach salad, but much more concentrated. How much more? Just 1 rounded teaspoon or 7 tablets of WheatGrass™ weighing a mere 3.5 grams is equivalent to a spinach salad weighing a full 50 grams! (Sure, this comparison is amazing in part because we remove the weight of the water, but it's still pretty impressive even with that factored in.)

WHAT EXACTLY IS WheatGrass™?

Wheatgrass is the green sprouts of young wheatgrass plants, grown under optimum conditions, carefully harvested at its nutritional maximum, dehydrated and bottled for your convenience. Wheatgrass is not to be confused with the common wheat grain used for making flour. 

Our Organic WheatGrass™ actually contains chlorophyll in abundance - vital to every one of your body’s processes. Organic WheatGrass™  stimulates digestion, clears the fog from your brain, and effectively protects your entire system from bacteria and disease.  Click here for more info.

How many servings should I take, and when is it best to take them?

It depends. If you eat a lot of greens, one serving a day is probably enough. If not, 2 to 3 servings per day would be good. Ideally, you would take your wheatgrass on an empty stomach or at least an hour or so before a meal, along with a glass of water or other liquid.

This helps your body take full advantage of the nutrients without competing with other foods. It also may take the edge off your hunger so you don't eat as much at meals. Two to three servings per day will ensure you get a full complement of quality nutrients every single day. (Remember, there's no downside to taking Organic WheatGrassT - you can't overdo it!)

WHAT IS THE RECOMMENDED SERVING SIZE?

7 tablets or 1-1/4 teaspoon of powder (3.5 grams) is the recommended serving size. Like with exercise, the full benefits of Organic WheatGrass™ ™ come from consistency over time.

WHAT PROCESSING DO YOU DO AND WHAT EFFECT DOES THAT HAVE ON THE NUTRITIONAL CONTENT OF YOUR PRODUCTS?

Our processing and packaging are designed to be as minimal as possible - maintaining maximum levels of nutrients in the final product delivered to you. (Please browse our FACTS section for a complete description of our processing.) 

HOW does Organic WheatGrass™ compare to FRESH wheatgrass

The nutritional profiles of dehydrated whole leaf or Wheatgrass tablets and fresh juice are quite different, so any comparison is a rough estimate. Given that, roughly 1/2 teaspoon or 3-5 tablets will offer similar nutrition to an ounce of fresh juice. However, there's much more to the story.

Differences in soil conditions, growing time and environment lead to significant differences in nutritional content. Organic WheatGrass™ is much actually more nutritionally concentrated and complete than even fresh wheatgrass juice!


IF I AM ALLERGIC TO WHEAT, CAN I STILL take WheatGrass™?

Yes! Wheat allergies are normally a reaction to the gluten found in the wheat berry. Wheatgrass available from us has no gluten whatsoever. In fact, since our Organic WheatGrass™  offers so many nutrients (and a body needs all the help it can get to combat allergens) and is grown without herbicides or pesticides, it would likely be an excellent addition to the diet of someone with allergies.


CAN I TAKE WheatGrass™ DURING PREGNANCY?

Wheatgrass is perfectly safe to take before, during and after pregnancy. In fact, it's smart to take Organic WheatGrass™  during pregnancy, since it is an excellent source of folic acid, and of course many other important nutrients.

I'VE HEARD THAT BARLEY GRASS IS BETTER. IS THAT TRUE?

No. There is very little nutritional difference between wheatgrass and Barley Grass. You may prefer the taste of wheat grass over barley grass, or vice-versa, but for nutritional value, it doesn't matter which you choose. However, make sure you choose a brand from a company that produces only an organically grown product – like WheatGrass™ from Wheatgrass.ie. 

IS MIGHTY GREENS BETTER THAN WheatGrass™?

Mighty Greens Superfood Blend Powder is neither better nor worse, but different. Mighty Greens contains both wheat grass and barley grass, as well as 22 other ingredients that combine to give it a sweeter taste. It tends to be used in place of sports drinks or as a midday snack.

Nutritionally it is about as equivalent to Organic WheatGrass by serving size, but the serving size is about twice as big and costs a bit more. For your daily dose of greens, we recommend the pure wheat grass, simply because it offers more nutrients and better value for your money.

 But as a healthy alternative to coffee (even 'decaffeinated' coffee), or sports drinks laced with high-fructose corn syrup, Mighty Greens is an absolutely fantastic alternative!
