What it is

Wheatgrass powder is made from the young shoots of the wheat plant (Triticum aestivum) before it grows into mature wheat. The grass is harvested, dried, and then ground into a fine powder. It is often grown organically.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add wheatgrass powder to foods and beverages for its nutritional profile and vibrant green color. It is commonly found in health-focused products like smoothies, juices, and snack bars.

Health notes

Wheatgrass powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated various food ingredients, but specific evaluations for wheatgrass powder's use as a food additive may vary. Research suggests potential health benefits associated with its nutrient content, but more studies are needed to confirm these effects.

Allergen info

Wheatgrass is derived from wheat, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It contains gluten.
