Quoting Scaredflyer21 (Reply 3): I have not been able to try the stuff yet, but I am hoping to pretty soon. |
Quoting Vivek0072 (Reply 6): I have had a couple of times, at various jamaba juice locations. |
Quoting Vivek0072 (Reply 6): anti-toxidants |
Quoting Frontiercpt (Reply 1): Hey, I don't know much about wheatgrass itself, but I go to a performing arts magnet school... |
Quoting Cptkrell (Reply 10): Having been subjected to the heralding of an uncountable number of health fads over the last half+ century of my lifetime, and casually observing that NONE of them work as "advertised", allow me to be skeptical. I am thinking that a common-sense, well-balanced diet and a goodly degree of excercise is the only way to go. I am also thinking that supplimental nutrient manufacturers and fad advertisers will wholeheartedly disagree with me. |
Quoting Cptkrell (Reply 13): Never heard of it (or any other juices or bugs or lizard livers or anything other such fad) being profoundly instrumental in a substantial clinical verification for all its (their) mystical health benifits. |
Quoting Cptkrell (Reply 15): Still sounds like the next fad. |
Quoting Cptkrell (Reply 15): Of course, I never heard of gingivitus, even from the dentist back in the 50's. Now it's an advertising pillar for toothpaste. Same deal. If you regularly brush your teeth and gums you'll probably never even need to hear about gingivitus until the TV tells you. |
Quoting Cptkrell (Reply 15): being two Pilates away from a bronzed god |
Quoting Cptkrell (Reply 15): eat a well-balanced diet |
Quoting Cptkrell (Reply 15): but the point I was making is that I've never heard of wheatgrass until lately. Like I said, I guess I've been out of the loop. |
Quoting Scaredflyer21 (Thread starter): I am currently doing a study on the health-related benefits of fresh wheatgrass juice for my nutrition course. This bitter tasting juice is said to have the equivalent of 2.2 lbs. of vegetable nutrients in just one ounce of it. I was just curious if anyone regulary drinks wheatgrass juice as part of their diet. If so, does it really work? I tend to have my doubts, but it never hurts to ask, eh? |
Quoting Cptkrell (Reply 20): Well, I have another additional forty years on you and perhaps you wouldn't believe what dietary fads I've seen come and go during that time. |
