RANCHO DOMINGUEZ, Calif.—NP Nutra launched NutraGrass™, a premium ingredient produced from certified organic wheatgrass juice. NutraGrass is a premium green product concentrated from the juice of freshly harvested certified organic young wheatgrass sprouts (Triticum aestivum). Naturally rich in a range of important vitamins, minerals, amino acids, phytonutrients and metabolic enzymes, including superoxide dismutase and cytochrome oxidase, wheatgrass contains up to 70-percent chlorophyll.
The wheatgrass is carefully grown, harvested and processed in order to capture the maximum amount of nutrients and vitality. NutraGrass grasses are organically grown outdoors in sunshine and moonlight, allowing them to absorb the full benefits of their natural environment. They are harvested at the peak of their nutritional potency and immediately processed in accordance with strict international organic standards. NutraGrass is gently dried by air stream at very low temperatures to preserve the bright colors and nutrients naturally found in the freshest wheatgrass juice.
Deeply concentrated, NutraGrass has applications in powdered formulas, particularly greens formulas, as well as capsules, tablets and supplements. With its sweet “green" taste and optimal solubility, NutraGrass adds the ideal nutritional boost to juices, smoothies, functional drink products, sauces and salad dressings. NutraGrass is also highly suitable for boosting the nutritional content of functional foods.
