Foodin Wheatgrass Powder, organic, 200g

A classic green powder

Wheatgrass powder is a classic green powder whose popularity dates back decades! Organic, mild in flavour and extremely easy to use, wheatgrass powder has earned its place as a staple among our customers.

What wheatgrass is

Wheatgrass is the ground leaf of the wheat plant, harvested at the plant’s most nutrient-dense stage, as a young shoot, before it has had time to grow to full size and produce grain (seeds).

Harvesting

The plants grow slowly during winter, storing nutrients within themselves, and finally the 15-25 cm shoots are harvested when the plant’s enzymatic activity is at its peak. At this stage of growth, the plant channels all of its energy into forming the small shoots. After this, the same energy is directed towards forming the seeds, i.e. the grain. Harvesting too late weakens the nutritional properties of the shoots.

Use

Wheatgrass powder works well as a green boost in water, various green drinks, juices and smoothies. The taste of green powders may, however, feel strong at first to some. Sour citrus fruits can help with this — you could, for example, stir a splash of lemon juice into your green drink. Always combine green powders and tablets with good oils and/or fats as well, such as high-quality, delicious olive oil. Feel free to try green powders in making nutrient-rich salad dressings too, together with lemon juice and quality olive oil.
