    Default Question for Wheat Grass Juice drinkers . . .

    How much wheat grass juice do you drink a day?

    I just ordered a juicer and wheat grass kit.

    Thanks, friends!

    Thanks, I already have it.

    I was curious how much wheat grass juice you folks drink on a daily basis.

    Hey there, check out my website for some good FAQ's. I drink about 2 ounces every other day or so....I use it just for maintenance. Up to 6 ounces is ok for those who are healing from disease...Some people say anything over that is overkill.... happy growing.

    I don't even juice it anymore... I just throw a big handful into my green smoothie. We LOVE it that way

    I have heard that the grass is not digestible?

    I heard that the grass is very good and aides in digestion...

    ...Putting blades into the blender does not juice the grass. Only a juicer can do that. Optimally, wheatgrass should be juiced to get all the nutrients.

    Raw Mom, are there any bad effects if someone drinks 2 or more ounces of wheat grass juice every day?

    It can cause some uncomfortable detoxing. Victoria Boutenko writes about it in her books. Said she originally didn't have the stomach acid to break it down. Apparently, she believes that if your body can use it, it'll taste sweet and good.
