FYI This is Not The Same As Wheatgreass JUICE Powder
It was my own mistake; I am fairly new to using wheatgrass juice powder. I recently ordered a very expensive and very small package of it and while it was expensive, it was impressive. It was a deep, rich and fine green powder. When I went to reorder I checked around and saw this 'wheatgrass powder' and thought it was the same thing. So I ordered thinking it was a great deal and then was disappointed to see it was pale, coarse and gritty, at least as compared to the wheatgrass JUICE powder I had previously been using. So I did a little reading and learned the difference, which in very basic terms is this: Wheatgrass powder (this product) is made from drying and using the entire plant, pulp and all, so it's better for a bulk fiber. Wheatgrass Juice Powder on the other hand, is made by juicing the plant and then that juice is dried, so the result is a much more nutrient dense product and much finer in texture.So this seems like a perfectly fine product, and I've used other products by this brand and have always been happy with them. I'll go ahead and finish this and maybe even buy it going forward for the fiber value. But I'll have to look elsewhere for the wheatgrass juice powder, which is really what I wanted for the dense nutritional value it offers.

Real Good Quality Wheatgrass
I purchased this product and I have no bad things to say about it so far. I experienced no unwanted side effects from this particular brand of wheatgrass and the taste is comparable to other brands that I have had.I haven't used wheatgrass in awhile though so when shopping for it online and in stores I did notice that most of the brands where quite expensive. I am willing to spend good money for good quality but when I saw the price on this wheatgrass I decided to give it a try.It mixes up well with my daily health drink and I noticed that within just a week that my energy went up and my bowel movements seemed to become more regular. It appears (from what I've noticed) that it is doing the job that wheatgrass is supposed to do, i.e.- more energy, better digestion, even my blood pressure has went down. By the way, I would never use this as a replacement for blood pressure medication but in a health-maintenance way, along with my exercise routine, I do believe that this wheatgrass will aid in keeping me out of going to the doctor's officer for anything more than routine check-ups.I did notice that it comes from China and you know what? I don't really care. I have plenty of healthy Chinese, Indian and other Southeast Asian friends and I do believe that they know how to make a healthy product or two? At least I would guess that not ALL of their products are crap. The "don't buy this product because it's Chinese" is kind of a turn off to that message in general and I tend to stop reading after I see that.Bad products come from ALL over the globe.Just research your products, test them out and see for yourself. If you like something, keep using it. If not, toss it. You know better for the next time.I have used other Starwest Botanical products in the past and in general, they've proven themselves to be a good source of healthy products.I am a satisfied customer. I hope you will be too.

This product is wonferful!
In a 1st review, I was very alarmed b/c of the lead warning? I have now deleted it! I researched & now understand why it was there. At 1st, I put it up & didn't get it out for several months. But now that I understand the lead warning label ... I love it!! It tastes green & wildish but yet kind of buttery. Every morning 1st thing, I manage to mix some in a little canning jar with some cold, filtered water & drink it down. I have learned not to drink too much tho, as it makes me a little nauseated. I refrigerate the rest & sip it during afternoon/evening. IT IS FANTASTIC!!!! I can actually feel when it has changed & softened my blood! It destroys bad stuff & puts good stuff in. It softens my skin & hair texture & I keep reaching up & touching my hair in disbelief! I put a little on my hands at night on dark age spots & they have shrunk & faded to very light tan! This stuff is fantastic! ❤

Says made in China then has CA Prop 65 cancer warning
If I’d known it has a prop 65 label I would’ve never bought it. Not sure how you can have a USDA certified organic product that comes from China, and then it has a warning that exposure to it will cause cancer. Can’t return this toxic item. Buy a different brand.

PROP 65 WARNING Explained!
Tastes like wheatgrass, this bag isn't even half empty and it's lasted me about 7 months or so. Insane value.Saw people freaking out about the Prop 65 warning on the front label. I'll explain it, and no I don't work for them, I just had some time to burn and did 3 minutes of research. And this isn't me trying to convince anyone of anything, it's just to inform anyone curious. I'm not here to debate anything.1. The chemical referred to in the warning is lead. There's lead in any soil, whether it's China or America. There are levels of lead in your organic produce at the store. The California Prop 65 law threshold for all chemicals including lead is something like 0.00005%, this isn't an exact number, but understand that it's a very low number (look it up). They're about one decimal point higher than that in their wheatgrass product which essentially has no effect, and probably less of an effect compared to organic produce that has dirt on it that you need to wash off. If you eat vegetables, you're taking in small amounts of lead that the body gets rid of eventually. I hope I didn't inadvertently convince you to go on a strict carnivore regimen. Which, by the way, tuna has trace levels of mercury in it. Chemicals are present in both plants and animals.2. On their website, look up Starwest Botanicals, at the quality testing page, they specifically say they regularly inspect their products for quality and purity to make sure there's no bad stuff in it. And it is in the interest of the company to test their stuff so they're not poisoning their customers.3. The reason why they're putting that label is so they are up front and honest with their customers. Other companies might leave it out because it's bad for sales.

It's good :)
It's really nice wheatgrass powder for the price. It's a big bag that lasts a long time. I can't complain. I definitely suggest transferring it to a different container. Some reviews talked about a warning for cancer-causing chemicals, but I didn't see anything like that on my bag.

I HATE IT AS IT MADE ME SICK.
It says "US Organic Certified" but its label warns that it contains substance(s) that can cause "birth defects or other reproductive harm". The label also mentions that the product comes from China: I won't be surprised the the poisonous substances are heavy metals since it is well known that the use of sewage is widespread in China's agriculture.I use the product twice; I did not like the smell or the taste and it gave me stomach cramps and diarrhea.I can't return the product since I opened it and tried it.) I'll end up in the trash.I am surprise that Amazon lists the product as a "Prime" product." Please Amazon drop it.(I don't know why Amazon dropped the Sevenhills Wheatgrass Powder I used regularly and was a far superior product.)
