Up to 70% of wheatgrass juice is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is a very potent antioxidant. It purifies the blood, cleanses to tissues and cells, and rids the body of harmful toxins.

In addition, wheatgrass juice contains almost every vitamin known to man. It is high in vitamin A, B (brain and body development, adrenal glands and digestive system), Vitamin C (healthy skin, teeth, eyes, muscles and joints) and vitamin E (heart and reproductive system).

Wheatgrass juice contains 92 of the 102 minerals available in the soil. It is high in calcium (bones and teeth, hearth regulation, maintain blood PH), iron (blood cell formation and transportation of oxygen), magnesium (muscle function and elimination), and potassium (balances the body, tones muscle, firms skin), as well as the trace minerals zinc and selenium (antioxidant).

Wheatgrass juice contains 17 amino acids (protein) including 8 of the essential amino acids which the body cannot manufacture on its own.

Wheatgrass grows through a process known as sprouting. Sprouts are "complete foods" because they contain all other essential dietary nutrients, along with the enzymes to help digest and assimilate them. The nutrients in wheatgrass juice can be completely assimilated by the human body in 20 minutes. Wheat sprouts contain four times more folic acid and six times more vitamin C than un-sprouted wheat or ordinary grass. One ounce of wheatgrass juice is nutritionally equivalent to 1 kilo (2 pounds) of vegetables.
Wheatgrass juice needs to be consumed within 15 minutes of juicing to ensure all the nutritional benefits are received. Commercially prepared wheatgrass do not contain the health benefits offered by natural, freshly juiced wheatgrass.
