29 benefits of wheatgrass

My mom and I enjoyed a delicious breakfast at Pulp Lifestyle Kitchen in Salt Lake City a few weekends ago. She decided to order us both a shot of wheatgrass. Although I had taken one before, I was hesitant. I just woke up and wanted to enjoy my sweet, milky mocha! Let me just say, if you’re going to take a wheatgrass shot MAKE SURE it is chilled. I think our shot glasses had just come out of a hot dishwasher… anyways, shot it back and it was over with minimal gagging. I then read some of the benefits of wheatgrass that were posted on the wall at Pulp. It made me curious, so I did some research! Here are reasons why I should start taking wheatgrass shots; hopefully I will, and hopefully you will to!
