Bad idea to mix wheatgrass with a lot of juices?

[Danforz]

Hello everyone,

I'm somewhat saddened to say that I haven't felt that detoxification nausea others report when drinking wheatgrass. Now, obviously not feeling bad isn't necessarily a bad thing but it made me wonder if the poblem is what I'm mixing it with.

My breakfast usually involves juicing three or four fruits with my Breville and then coldpressing three or four leafy greens with my Healthy Juicer. All in all I'm getting a possibility of five to ten separate fruit and veggie juices in my system at once.

Does this undermine the effect of wheatgrass? Should I take the shots by themselves?

I always drink my wheatgrass shots with fruit juice, usually apple, orange, celery and a bit of ginger. I like it better this way and don't believe I'm missing out on anything.

If you are worried, keep it simple. Maybe only have fruit juice and green juice instead of fruit, veg and greens.

to get all the nutrition out of wheatgrass using a citrus juice chaser is better.

pineapple
orange
grapefruit to name three

I bought a drink from a local health food store, a green juice specifically, that had a shot of wheatgrass put into it.

It was way too overpowering for me, so much that I couldn't really, "drink the drink." Now I've had a shot of wheatgrass before this, and if I have it again, it will most certainly be on its own as opposed to put into a drink with other ingredients.

Take 4 ounces straight, first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. That should do you.

I had it once in a health food store and was considering drinking it with carrot juice. The provider asked me why I'd want to ruin perfectly good carrot juice.

Haha, I LOVE the taste of fruit juice with wheatgrass in it!

It aint ruined!

Not carrot though...
