How to Use Wheat Grass Powder

When you look at your container of wheat grass powder, chances are you may have a specific idea for how you’ll use it. You may throw some into your favorite smoothie, mix it into peanut butter as part of breakfast or a snack, or maybe you take it straight up after stirring it with a glass of water.

But do you know all of the different ways to not just consume this superfood but enjoy doing it, too? The great news is that as more people learn the benefits of wheat grass, we’re bound to find new ways about how to use wheat grass powder.


Before we get into the new and different ways to enjoy the potential benefits of wheat grass, let’s actually take a look at how it can support your health goals.

What to Know About Wheat Grass and its Benefits

Wheat grass is the young grass that grows on the top of common wheat plants (triticum aestivum). The best wheat grass supplement producers carefully cultivate, handle, and process the wheat grass, and it’s that thoughtful product development that ensures that the wheat grass is as healthy as possible for consumption.

Wheat grass is filled with iron, calcium, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, and an array of other nutrients. While nothing is definitive yet—studies are ongoing—some of the many potential health benefits include easing of chemotherapy-related side effects as well as support for rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, hematological disease, diabetes, obesity, and oxidative stress. Plus, wheat grass may help the body release toxins and lower cholesterol levels, studies show.


Researchers have also found that wheat grass is generally safe to take, though some may have difficulty tolerating it. Side effects include mild nausea, headache, fever, and stomach upset.

How Much Wheat Grass Powder Should You Take Per Day?

There's no set amount of wheat grass each person should take per day. To get the best idea of how much you should consume, be sure to read and follow the directions on the label of the product you purchased. Supplement manufacturers generally advise users to take one teaspoon per dose with at least 8 ounces of water or other liquid. You can also speak with your primary care provider to see if they have any suggestions.

Two Easy Recipes for Enjoying Wheat Grass

Here are two incredibly quick, easy, and delicious ways to get the most out of your wheat grass powder.

More Tips for How to Use Wheat Grass Powder in Recipes

Adding wheat grass powder to your diet is a great way to ensure you receive the nutrients you need as part of your regular diet. Although wheat grass is low in calories, it's important to remember the calorie count of whichever food or beverage you’re combining with the wheat grass.


If you're new to drinking wheat grass, it’s important to remember that you should drink what you make as soon as possible. Smoothies and juices deteriorate in taste after a few hours, even if you refrigerate them properly.


It’s also crucial to store wheat grass powder in a dry, dark area. And when you scoop your wheat grass powder, make sure the spoon is dry so you don't introduce mold or bacteria into the mix.

Is Wheat Grass Bad for You?

Wheat grass is not bad for you as long as your doctor says it's OK for you to consume. Although researchers report few if any side effects, only a medical professional can assure you that it works well with your health profile. This is particularly important if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as well as those with blood disorders, celiac disease, gluten intolerance, or diabetes.

Beyond simply talking about wheat grass in general, it’s a good idea to discuss the type and brand of wheat grass powder you plan to take. Better still, do some research on your own. Study the label, read the manufacturer's website, ask questions, and show the information you gather with your physician.


Finally, remember that wheat grass is grown in soil or water. That means it's easily contaminated with mold or bacteria unless it's harvested, handled, and processed properly.

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.

My love life was in shambles, I had been through two divorces and was on the brink of a third. I just couldn’t face another divorce, and I wanted to try harder to make our relationship work, but my husband didn’t seem to care. and he brake up with me again. I was confuse and do not no what to do again, rather them to get in contact with Dr Ogaga . He did a love spell that make my husband come back to me. we are now very much happy with our self. Dr Ogaga make him to realize how much we love and need each other. This man is for REAL and for good, he can also help you to fix your broken relationship. I had my husband back!
