Wheatgrass

Wheatgrass is the young, freshly sprouted leaves of the common wheat plant, Triticum aestivum. Though it's harvested before the wheat seed matures typically 7 to 14 days after sprouting, this vibrant green shoot is packed with nutrients. Unlike the grains used for flour or baking, wheatgrass is consumed purely for its incredible health-promoting properties.

It thrives best in organic, mineral-rich soil and is often grown indoors on trays or hydroponically. The key to its potency is harvesting at the peak of chlorophyll and nutrient density when the grass is still tender, enzymatically active, and incredibly green.

Wheatgrass has been used since ancient times, but it gained modern popularity in the 1930s through the work of Charles F. Schnabel, who promoted its nutritional value. Today, it's celebrated worldwide as a detoxifying, energizing superfood.

Wheatgrass may look like a simple blade of grass, but it's one of the most nutrient-dense plants you can consume. It's loaded with:

• Chlorophyll (up to 70%) - a natural blood builder
• Vitamin A, C, E, K, and B-complex
• Iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and zinc
• Amino acids - 17 types, including all essential ones
• Enzymes - like superoxide dismutase (SOD) and cytochrome oxidase

It also has strong alkalizing properties, helping to counteract acidity in the body caused by stress, processed food, and pollution.

Wheatgrass in Miduty’s Supergreen Supplement is grown on certified organic farms (no pesticides, no GMOs), ensuring it’s rich in natural minerals and vitamins. Most competitors use conventional farms, which may diminish nutrient quality.

Rather than using heat-drying (which destroys enzymes, chlorophyll, and antioxidants), Miduty uses low-temperature drying and cold processing to retain Chlorophyll (nature’s green super-antioxidant), vitamin-rich enzymes like SOD and cytochrome oxidase, essential amino acids and micronutrients.
Many standard powders are deprived of these benefits due to high-heat methods.

While raw juice may be highly nutritious, it’s perishable. Miduty’s powdered wheatgrass in Supergreens is processed to maximize nutrient stability and absorption, offering levels of vitamins A, C, E, K, B complex, iron, and magnesium comparable to fresh green juice without the hassle of daily juicing.

Miduty doesn’t just include wheatgrass it integrates it into a potent supergreens formula with:

• Probiotics for gut health
• Antioxidant-rich spirulina, barley grass, and moringa

This synergistic approach amplifies effects for digestion, immunity, and detoxification far beyond what wheatgrass alone can achieve.

Wheatgrass powder is versatile:

• Mix with lemon water or coconut water to mask the grassy taste
• Add to green smoothies or fresh juices
• Stir into soups or broths (at lower temps to preserve enzymes)

Always start with small doses if you're new to it, as detox reactions are common in the beginning.

Tips to Maximize Benefits and Minimize Side Effects

• Take on an empty stomach for better absorption and cleansing effects.
• Combine with vitamin C-rich juices (like lemon or orange) to enhance iron uptake.
• Use with probiotics or fermented foods to support gut flora synergy.

Avoid heating wheatgrass powder above 40°C, heat destroys enzymes and chlorophyll.

Wheatgrass is generally considered safe for most people, but there are a few exceptions. Individuals who should approach it with caution include:

• Pregnant and breastfeeding women: Though not known to be harmful, conclusive safety studies are limited.
• Those with grass or wheat allergies: While wheatgrass doesn't contain gluten when harvested early, allergic reactions to grass pollen or cross-contamination may occur.
• People with compromised immune systems: Since wheatgrass can be consumed raw (especially in juice form), it may carry bacteria if not handled hygienically.

If you have chronic illnesses or are on medication always consult a healthcare provider before starting wheatgrass.

Due to its potent detoxifying effect, some first-time users experience mild cleansing symptoms, such as Headaches, Nausea, Dizziness, Fatigue, Temporary loose stools.

These typically subside in a few days. To reduce the likelihood:

• Start with a smaller dose (half teaspoon)
• Increase slowly over 7-10 days
• Drink plenty of filtered water to support toxin elimination

These are not true side effects but signs of toxin release a short-term adjustment phase.

Wheatgrass is an ideal daily superfood for anyone looking to:

• Boost energy and immunity naturally
• Improve digestion and detox pathways
• Get cleaner skin, better oxygenation, and hormonal balance
• Alkalize the body and support gut health

It's especially beneficial for:

• Urban dwellers exposed to pollution
• Athletes and fitness enthusiasts
