Wheatgrass is so good for you. It's full of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, beneficial enzymes and phytonutrients. It contains chlorophyll which helps to detoxify the liver and blood by neutralising toxins and environmental pollutants.
However,
wheatgrass juice is definitely an acquired taste (it actually tastes
like grass!) and is often served with a wedge of orange to eat
afterwards to make it more palatable.
Nutrifiz sent
me two packets of their effervescent wheatgrass tablets to sample and
review – one for adults and one for children. These tablets offer
you the health benefits of taking wheatgrass without the
grassy taste. The adult tablets are lemon flavour while the kids'
version is orange. They contain organic wheatgrass extract as well as
20 vitamins and minerals.
To
use these tablets, simply dissolve one in 200ml of water to make a
refreshing drink. They're not bitter, grainy or chalky like some of
these drinks can be. I tried both and I have to say I preferred the lemony taste of the adults' version - it was really refreshing. My husband loved it so much that he downed his drink in one go! The children's one tastes a bit like orange squash so kids will just think they're
drinking an orange drink rather than something that's good for them (although they might be confused as to why it's green but tastes of orange).
Nutrifiz
wheatgrass tablets are suitable for vegetarians but not for pregnant
or breastfeeding women due to their high vitamin A content.
