Peak Supps Organic Wheatgrass Powder is sourced in Germany and is grown all over Europe. It is harvested at a young age to capture the height of the plant’s nutritional content. After this, it is then taken to a dehydration facility before finally being milled into a fine powder. During this process, roughly 5kg of fresh Wheatgrass leaves creates 1kg of fine powder.
Wheatgrass, otherwise known as Triticum Aestivum, is full of a variety of natural vitamins & minerals. Some of these include Vitamin C, Calcium, Iron & Zinc. It also contains antioxidants which can help fight free radicals and play a role in protecting DNA, proteins and lipids from oxidative stress.
Wheatgrass has recently become a highly popular superfood as it contains 17 amino acids, including all 8 essential amino acids. It is also high in chlorophyll, a green plant pigment that offers strong anti-inflammatory properties. Wheatgrass powder can be added to smoothies, yoghurts and juices to give an extra boost of nutrition.
