I’ll be purchasing a manual wheat grass juicer soon. I can’t decide on which one I want, but you may have helped me make my decision. I’d love to see post review on your new juicer when it arrives.

Take care and thanks again for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment. I am now a follower of your blog.

Thanks for the post!

People with known grass allergies should stay away from wheat grass. There isn’t anything you can do to adjust the wheat grass. Are you allergic to mold? Based on your symptoms it seems as though you had a reaction to mold which is commonly found in wheat grass that is not grown or stored properly. I cannot tell you if you had the reaction to the grass or the mold but I would stay away from it for now. Ask your allergist or nutritionist before consuming anymore wheatgrass.

There are also numerous studies found that consuming wheat grass helps with allergies (pollen and mold in particular) since the body needs all the nutrients to combat allergens.

Hope this helps!

I particularly like some of the naked juices. In particular, the “green machine” is one of my favorites but it took me a little while to grow acclimated to the taste. The fact that you are mixing the naked juice with fruit juice certainly wouldn’t negate the health benefits since you are still going to absorb most of the minerals in the naked juice. However, you are adding more sugar. Naked Juices have lots of sugar but it is the good sugar (unrefined), however there are on average 50 grams of sugar per bottle which is a lot for your body to handle anyway. Mixing the Naked Juice with other juice which most likely contains a refined sugar of some kind, does make this habit unhealthy. Taking in a lot of sugar all at once will cause your energy levels to spike and crash. Try adding some seltzer, as this might reduce the sweetness of the drink since the “green machine” tends to be on the sweeter side.

Hope this helps and thanks for your post!

I am allergic to many things, one of the many being grass. I was in Atlanta for business a few months ago, and I saw a Robeks (which I totally love!), so I decided to stop in and get a healthy treat. At home I always wanted to get the wheatgrass shot, but just couldn’t justify spending the money on it, especially if I didn’t like it. But, since I was on business in Atlanta, at Robeks on the company dime, I went for it. I got the wheatgrass shot. I also got my usual smoothie. So I went about my day feeling normal, but by the end of the day I wasn’t feeling very good. The next morning, the whole next day, and the day after, I spent throwing up, severely nauseus, and you don’t even want to know what else. I couldn’t eat anything which is very rare and I couldn’t even keep down Sprite or Gingerale.

Do you think my body was having an allergic reaction to the wheatgrass? I don’t know if it was or if it wasn’t, but I will never have another shot of wheatgrass ever again!!!

Very important and insightful article. I’m looking forward to using the juicer with you soon!.

Love, Frank

I can tell you put a lot of time into the research and I think this is just so great!! You will have to come food shopping with me one day and drop some more knowledge on me
