three days, they are exposed to light.

24. Wheatgrass initial positive symptoms
• Nausea and Stomach Discomfort
• Wheat grass' detoxifying effects may cause nausea. Detox in
the body occurs due to quick removal of carcinogens, heavy
metals, bad fats, metabolic wastes and other impurities in
the body. The nausea generally goes away after a short
period of time such as a few hours. Wheat grass does not
combine well with other foods, so consuming wheat grass
while eating or after eating can also cause nausea and
stomach discomfort. You should always take wheat grass
should always be taken on an empty stomach and wait at
least one hour after consuming wheat grass before eating.
Stomach discomfort can also occur if you are not used to
ingesting wheat grass.

25. Wheatgrass initial positive symptoms
• Allergic Reactions
• Those who are allergic to wheat should refrain from consuming
wheat grass juice and its supplements. Allergic reactions to wheat
include skin rashes and hives, breathing difficulty and swelling of
the throat or mouth. Those with mold allergies may also want to
avoid wheat grass. Like most grass plants, wheat grass is prone to
mold. However the "blue fuzz" mold that appears on wheat grass
is non-pathegenic and is not harmful to humans not allergic to
mold, according to City Farmer's Urban Agriculture Notes. This
type of mold does not penetrate the wheat plant and is easily
removed by rinsing the plant with water before processing.
Pathogenic white and brown mold can also occur on wheat grass,
but it kills the grass, severely reducing the risk of humans ingesting
these mold types. Purchasing commercial varieties of wheat grass
often reduces the risk of using wheat grass with mold.

26. Wheatgrass initial positive symptoms
• Headache and Diarrhea
• Diarrhea is a possibility the first time you consume wheat
grass, but is mainly a concern if too much wheat grass is
ingested at one time, such as over 2 ounces according to
Health Banquet. It is best to start out consuming one ounce
per day and eventually moving up to two. Headaches can
result as part of the detoxification process from wheat grass.
They can occur either alone or in combination with nausea.
After toxins have been removed from the body, headache as
well as nausea will cease. Consuming wheat grass with blue
mold on it is incorrectly referred to as the cause of
headaches as opposed to detoxification.
