| Is this green-food supplement gluten-free??
Hey all,
I have been scoping out these "green food" supplements...the powdery stuff you mixes in with water/juice. I came across a few in the health food stores around town, and after checking out the labels on all found that two key ingredients in these products were wheat grass and barley grass. I asked the woman working in that section if they offered any truly, gluten-free green food sups., and she informed me that they were all, in fact, gluten free. I was basically told by her that because the grasses used in the products are young sprouts and not yet mature (thus, gluten-containing), that they were in fact gluten-free. I have done some more research on this and have basically gotten the same answer (these products are gluten-free). Afterwards, I emailed the company asking the same question and received a prompt reply informing me that: "...All the grasses and sprouts in XXXX are harvested at a tender age before any gluten is formed. You can rest assured the product contains absolutely no gluten."
I am still a bit hesitant. Has anyone actually used these products and if you have, did you have any reaction to them? If you have used a really great, gluten-free, green food supplement, could you point me in the same direction?
Many thanks,
