Is wheatgrass really very healthy, or is that all myth?
I'm going to start juicing, and I was curious as to whether or not wheatgrass was worth adding to the juice blend. I did some research, and I seem to be getting to very different messages: that wheatgrass is a miracle food that contains nearly all vitamins and minerals under the sun, or that it is basically useless, with the nutritional value of spring water.
Is either of these correct, or is there a median between the two?
If there is nutrional gain there, I would be interested growing my own. I did research on this as well, and found that home grown wheatgrass can contain a lot of mold and bacteria.
Is this true?
If so, is it preventable?
Would it be better to get it prepackaged or in powdered supplements?

I'm sure it's healthy, however just because it's healthy doesn't mean that consuming vast amounts of it is going to do something magical for you.
Broccoli is healthy but eating 5lbs a day isn't really going to do much for you (other than give you kidneys stones lol)
Wheatgrass is good for you and does contain a lot of nutrients. I think it is taking it a little far to think it's a miracle food that has everything you need in it.
If you are interested in juicing, check out Shakeology. I've heard it's very good.
