Wheatgrass Shots

Illustration

I've been back on my health kick again! It feels great to have all this energy! I've been touting a lot about wheat grass, but before any of you start chugging it down, I should warn you it's not for everyone!

I personally like to take wheat grass shots – they are really refreshing! But they do taste really grassy – but no surprise there! Mixing it with other juices like apple, orange or even carrot makes it a lot easier to down. If you're new to taking wheat grass shots, start in really small doses – 1oz a day. Wheat grass is a really intense detox, much more than other fruit and vegetables. It's like a high concentration of other fibrous dark green veggies – so it'll go right through you and clean you out! So take in moderation. Some people may even experience nausea. Ease up on consumption and mix in a little mint. I like to take shots at the Newsroom Cafe in Mid City, but you can get them at any Whole Foods or any juice bar.

Here are a few health benefits:
Improves digestion and weight control
Increases blood flow, reducing blood pressure and rebuilds blood stream
Increases energy level when consumed daily
Acts as a superior detoxification agent
and some claim to even prevent cancer!

I’d like to get a little planter of wheatgrass. They're really cute! But I think it just might die :( I'm not too good at gardening.

Have you tried wheat grass shots? What do you think?

I love wheatgrass shots! When I was little i used to always chew on the outside part of a peapod after eating the peas (a bit weird i know) so the taste reminds me of that! :)

I love wheatgrass shots! The taste isn't for everyone but I really don't mind it so much. Once you get use to it, it really doesn't bother you anymore. I run marathons and this is the best way to keep your body going.

I bought wheatgrass powder at Whole Foods and have been taking the past few days..Not a great after taste but worth the high energy kick it gives me for workouts and seems to suppress my appetite.

I used to take them before my workout and they always gave me that extra boost to actually want to push hard in the gym! The taste isn't too great, but you can chase it with juice! I always chew gum at the gym and that helps the lingering grass taste in
