Wheatgrass, the newly sprouted leaves of the common wheat plant (Triticum aestivum), has gained a lot of popularity in recent years. You can find it in juice bars and health food stores all across the United States. Most people consume it as a juice, taking a 1 to 2-ounce shot on its own or adding a shot to their favorite smoothie or juice recipe. You can also find it in powdered and supplement form for sale at most health food and grocery stores.
While many farmers grow wheatgrass for animal feed, people are starting to purchase it or grow it themselves to incorporate into their diets. It gets harvested early in its development, typically 7 to 10 days after harvesting. It may look like the grass in your front yard, but the young shoots of the wheat plant are packed with nutrients that may provide important health benefits.
