My mum used to grow trays of it and make juice drinks every day! I couldnt stomach it, but she thought it was great stuff!

My grandpa has been growing and juicing it for many years. He is so healthy for his age. I totally wish I could grow it, just can't afford a juicer and stuff right now.

What is it?

My doc told me it is not safe during pregnancy, too many vitamins can be bad like Vitamin A. I had 2 shakers of it as my husband thought it can't be bad for me. I drank it before I was pregnant and will again afterwards as it is so good for you.

I would avoid it for now just to be safe

Vitamin A from vegetables is fine. Your body will get rid of what it doesn't need. Vitamin A from animal products is where you can over do it. My aunt has had wheat grass juice daily with 4 pregnancies and had very healthy kids that never get sick. Her skin is always clear and her placentas looked great. I attended her home births. But, if your doctor specifically told you something, I'd listen to him or her.
