Wheat Grass products and review of published trials by Ray Sahelian, M.D. Health benefit of wheat grass supplement and wheat grass juice

Cereal grass is the young green plant that grows to produce the cereal grain. Wheat grass and barley grass are popular nutritional supplements. These cereal grasses, along with spirulina, chlorella, oat grass and alfalfa are sometimes referred to as "green foods." Wheat grass and barley grass are rich sources of chlorophyll. Wheat grass juice is popular among health food enthusiasts. As of September 2007, I could not find any published research in humans regarding the effects of wheat grass juice or supplements on health.

Wheat grass research
Evaluation of the antioxidant activity of wheatgrass (Triticum aestivum L.) as a function of growth under different conditions.
Phytother Res. 2006 Mar;20(3):218-27. Department of Chemistry, University of Pune, Pune 411 007, India.
The antioxidant activity of wheatgrass, which is consumed as a dietary supplement, was estimated at different levels. Wheat grass extracts were found to inhibit ascorbate-Fe2+ induced lipid peroxidation in rat liver mitochondria. The ORAC values of aqueous and ethanol wheat grass extracts are higher than those reported for many natural extracts or vegetables.

Wheatgrass emails
Q.  There are many stories of people who have extended their lives with cancer and other diseases or turned their health around with the help of wheatgrass therapy. (If you are unfamiliar with wheatgrass therapy, read: Grass - The Medicine Beneath our Feet.) In my book Wheatgrass Nature’s Finest Medicine, I share many of those stories. They are told in the first person by the patients themselves. Among those stories are some about sick dogs. If you’ve read my book, you know that I believe wheatgrass is one of the most potent natural medicines in the herbal pharmacopeia. But while others extol the virtues of wheatgrass, I have always eschewed the hyperbole associated with it as a panacea. But when it comes to dogs, there can be no hyperbole. Dogs don’t exaggerate. They don’t subscribe to faith healing, and they don’t respond to the placebo effect. What follows is an extract from Wheatgrass Nature’s Finest Medicine in which a longtime breeder tells his story about sick dogs and his use of wheatgrass. This is not just about one dog, but about dozens of sick dogs over many years. Not only did the grass change the lives of the dogs, but the breeder and his family were so impressed, they started growing wheatgrass on a larger scale to provide it to their human friends.
