Hey everyone! I saw David Wolfe in Long island last week, and he was saying how most grass is the same, including the kind that grows in your yard. Does anyone know if this is true?

also, I saw from an AMAZING website (http://www.blindguru.com/) that you can blend wheatgrass and then strain it through a cloth!

I blend it and drink it without straining it!

lawn grass isn't the same as wheatgrass unless you are growing wheat on your lawn! ha ha.

the fiberousness of grass is very difficult for our digestive system to handle (cows have four stomachs after all). even if you are "able" to ingest it without noticing a negative effect, chances are that it is taxing the system at the very least. it is highly suggested that you don't eat grass or ingest quantities of that sort of fiber. chewable plant fiber is the sort that benefits humans (celery, kale etc).

I agree with Coco. Grass should not be blended. The sharp fibers are not
digestible by the human body. Maybe Blending, then Straining, but I'd stay
away from that too, as it's not efficient in extracting the juice. The Best
way to take Grass Juice is to squeeze the Grass with a single-auger (or twin-gear) juicer, then strain it with a very fine strainer. Drink it straight, or diluted with a little water, or carrot juice.
In addition to taking it internally, Green Juice also works well as a
massage for the Body, Hair, and Scalp.....WY
