What is organic wheatgrass powder?
Organic Wheatgrass Powder is meticulously crafted from 100% pure, organically grown young wheatgrass. The vibrant green blades are harvested at their peak nutritional stage, thoroughly cleaned, gently dried (often via methods like low-temperature air-drying or freeze-drying to preserve nutrient integrity), and then finely milled into a versatile, free-flowing powder. This careful processing ensures the preservation of wheatgrass’s characteristic bright green color, earthy-fresh flavor, and comprehensive nutritional profile, including chlorophyll, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, iron, amino acids, and beneficial enzymes.
We also supply Organic Wheatgrass Juice Powder, which is produced by pressing the fresh organic wheatgrass, extracting the pure juice, and then carefully drying it (typically via freeze-drying or low-temperature spray-drying). This process concentrates the nutrients and chlorophyll by removing the insoluble fiber, resulting in a highly soluble, more potent powder. This makes it ideal for applications where rapid dissolution, maximum nutrient concentration, and a smoother texture are paramount.
Each powder is produced with care to maintain the wheatgrass’s exceptional nutritional value, vibrant green color, and inherent beneficial properties, providing a versatile and clean-label ingredient for your formulations.

FAQs
Q: What’s the main difference in application between Organic Wheatgrass Powder and Organic Wheatgrass Juice Powder?
A: Organic Wheatgrass Powder includes the insoluble fiber of the whole plant, making it suitable for smoothie mixes, thicker green drinks, or food applications where fiber content and a less concentrated flavor are desired. Organic Wheatgrass Juice Powder removes the fiber, offering a more concentrated nutrient profile and superior solubility, making it ideal for clear beverages, instant mixes, and wellness shots where potency and rapid dissolution are key.
Q: Is Organic Wheatgrass Powder truly gluten-free, even though it comes from wheat?
A: Yes, Organic Wheatgrass Powder is gluten-free. Wheatgrass is harvested at a very young stage, typically before the wheat plant develops gluten. Gluten is found in the seed (grain) of the wheat plant, not in the grass itself. Our products are tested to ensure they meet gluten-free standards.
Q: What’s the typical shelf life and recommended storage for bulk quantities?
A: Our Organic Wheatgrass Powders typically have a shelf life of 24 months from the manufacturing date when stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, in their original sealed, airtight packaging.
Q: How do your wheatgrass powders contribute to detoxification?
A: Both powders are rich in chlorophyll, which is a powerful detoxifier. They also provide a spectrum of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that support the body’s natural cleansing pathways, particularly liver function, and help neutralize free radicals.
Q: Will Organic Wheatgrass Powder impact the color and flavor of my finished product?
A: Yes, both powders will impart a vibrant green color and a characteristic earthy, fresh green flavor. The intensity will depend on the concentration used. The juice powder will generally have a more intense color and flavor per serving due to its concentrated nature.
