Day 2,perhaps somewhat less pre poo blood,stools are pretty good,still had gas but ate mexican last night some beans so not sure on that.
Here are some facts each 100grams of powder = 23,000 grams of live grass.
Works out that 1 gram powder =230 g of grass,each 1 and a 1/4 teaspoon = 3.5 g powder =805g grass
So each teaspoon and a 1/4 = about 1 and 3/4 pounds of live grass.
so a daily dose of 4 teaspoons is about 7 pounds of live grass, whoa, sounds like a lot of grass.

Also chlorophyll inhibits the action of proteolytic bacteria,whether true don't know.

Are you just mixing it with water and drinking it straight up or do you do something fancy with it?

I just mix the powder with water and down it,1/2 cup water or less. about 1 1/4 teaspoon.
3x a day so far,today might increase to 4.

Good to know - thanks. Going to buy some this week. Fingers crossed that I can tolerate the taste.

I just saw that my Primal Defense Ultra has barley and oat grass listed as ingredients, but it gives no indication of how much there is in there. Maybe that's why they're green...

Being on SCD for over a year has restored my transit time to normal. I have only gone 1x a day for the past month now every day.

I even had the Metametrix tests done that confirmed that my transit time is normal. Yay!

I tried wheat grass once, it did not seem to help. I am glad it does for you!

A couple years ago I had taken a shot of wheatgrass at the local health food store and liked it so much, I went home, bought a nice juicer and ordered the wheat grass kits online and grew my own but after a week of the homemade stuff, I started having issues so I stopped. I could have had issues due to something else so maybe I will try it again since you guys are having good luck with it!

Interesting article that showed up in today's eNewsletter from Dr. Mercola.

I bought some barley grass powder and added it yesterday. So far it seems to have a detox effect but its not to bad so far.

aguywithuc: Could you provide more details on the pregnenolone and adrenal glandular? I saw for pregnenolone there is a sulfated form with different properties. Also, whose adrenal gland are they powdering up?

I bought a individual serving of powdered wheatgrass and ugh, the fresh stuff is much nicer.
A local source for fresh wheatgrass juice has appeared so will be able to freeze some cubes of it and take every now and then.

I am a real believer in green juices, even with my one-time meltdown with wheatgrass. When making a batch of juice (collard mostly plus carrot) I'll freeze it in ice cube trays and bag the cubes to later defrost and make a juice shot with sparkling water. My gut loves green juices (but it's not a fan of fruit juices which I love boohoo).
