Default Wheat Grass


Hi, new to the forums

I recently read about wheat grass and how great it is supposed to be.
How a tablespoon is supposed to equal a salad.
I read that you could get it in a powder and I ordered it.
What I did not expect is how strong it smells. Second I have a strange reaction to it, I can't decide whether I like it or not, but when I stop to think about it I get sick
Most days I have a few shakes with meals, I usually have a strawberries, orange juice shake or blueberries/ice cream shake. The orange juice shake has a strong taste but when I put the wheat grass in there it ruined the taste and I ended up dumping it out because all I tasted was the wheat grass.
If wheat grass is all that it is cut out to be, I would like to take it everyday, but what can I do to completely mask the taste or as much as possible.

Thanks

I agree. The taste is no problem whatsoever after a couple shots. However, I do like an orange slice on the side to bite into after drinking mine!

The taste is unpleasant at first but most people get used to it. I would try fresh juice instead of powder.

Fresh is much better than powder in my opinion.

The taste of wheat grass fresh juice is unpleasant but if you really want to keep fit and healthy you must try this take this and take as a substitute from sodas. I tried this and absolutely the taste is really unpleasant and I make sure I have warm water on my side to drink after this juice.

Called Bobbi Sue's Pineapple Wheatgrass, you can find an excellent recipe of wheatgrass for a juicer at http://www.powerjuicer.com/power-juicer-recipe.php. 1 pineapple spear, handful of wheatgrass, handful of spinach wrapping the wheatgrass in the spinach. First juice the wrap, then add the pineapple spear. If this recipe is not the one that pops up, just click on the photo with the green glass.
