NutraGrass™ is a premium Green product concentrated
from the juice of freshly harvested certified organic
young Wheatgrass sprouts (Triticum aestivum). Naturally
rich in a range of important vitamins, minerals, amino
acids, phytonutrients and metabolic enzymes—including
superoxide dismutase and cytochrome oxidase—
wheatgrass contains up to 70% chlorophyll.
NutraGrass™ Wheatgrass is carefully grown, harvested
and processed in order to capture the maximum amount of
nutrients and vitality. NutraGrass™ grasses are organically
grown outdoors in sunshine and moonlight, allowing them to
absorb the full benefits of their pristine natural environment.
They’re harvested at the peak of their nutritional potency and
immediately processed in accordance with strict international
Organic standards.
Research by Dr. Charles Schnabel, Dr. George Kohler and Dr.
A.I. Virtanen in the 1930’s-1950’s found that cereal grasses like
Wheatgrass achieved their highest nutrient content at around
18 days—right before the first jointing. NutraGrass™ is gently
dried by air stream at very low temperatures to preserve the
bright colors and nutrients naturally found in the freshest
wheatgrass juice.

ctive Constituents:
Foremost among the many nutrients contained in Wheatgrass are high levels of chlorophyll, the pigment that
gives plants their green color. In addition, Wheatgrass contains over 70 vitamins and minerals such as vitamins
A, C, E, B1, B2, B3, B5, and B6, as well as biotin, folic acid, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, iron, and
magnesium. Not only that, Wheatgrass contains hundreds of enzymes and supplies over a dozen amino acids,
including seven essential amino acids.
Chlorophyll is similar in structure to the heme in hemoglobin, the iron-containing cell that transports oxygen
throughout the body. Thus, studies have shown that consuming chlorophyll-rich foods such as wheatgrass may
be beneficial to maintaining healthy blood counts and assist in the formation of slightly alkaline ph levels in
the body. In addition, it has been said that a diet high in chlorophyll-rich green vegetables like Wheatgrass may
promote overall health.

pplications:
Deeply concentrated, NutraGrass™ has exceptional application
in powdered formulas, particularly greens formulas, as well as
capsules, tablets and supplements. NutraGrass™ is often a key
ingredient in energy formulas and cleansing programs.
With its fresh sweet “green” taste and excellent solubility,
NutraGrass™ adds the perfect nutritional boost to juices,
smoothies, functional drink products, sauces and salad dressings.
NutraGrass™ is also highly suitable for boosting the nutritional
content of functional foods. Due to its moisturizing and
antioxidant properties, Wheatgrass is often used in cosmetics,
skin and hair care products.

istory:
The health potential of wheatgrass was first discovered by
agricultural chemist, Charles F. Schnabel in 1930 when he administered
young wheatgrass shoots to dying poultry. The hens not only recovered
but began producing eggs at an even higher rate than healthy hens.
Later Anne Wigmore, the founder of the Hippocrates Health Centre,
pioneered the use of wheatgrass to promote health and vitality and
began the Living Foods movement.
