Wheatgrass?

Does anyone know if wheatgrass has estrogen-like properties?

Anyone drink it? How do you feel afterwards?

I have thought about drinking straight shots of it but wonder if I should b/c of being triple positive. I need to avoid it if it acts like estrogen.

    Pure swears by it , as does her husband who is a ten year cancer survivor.

    I have a little in my naked juice drink but didnt like it alone.

    I ran wheatgrass by my pharmacist at Cancer Care.  She was ok with me taking it & it does not interfere with tamoxifen.

    I do too-I am addicted to it. My skin looks amazing, my counts are perfect, no more contipation from chemo ( since I started it completly dissappeared) and energy level great. I also juice so they probably helps as well but for some reason I am addicted to the wheatgrass-I can tell if I didn't have it. I use to do 5 days a week now I do 7.  It costs me $18.00 a week.

    It taste nasty but i drink it with Apple cider so I don't taste it at all but still always relieved after taken the final gulp. I do 2-3 ounces per day. I bought the machine to grind it and the manufactor is going to teach me how to grow it this summer.

    Pure- what juicer/machine did you get???  I am looking for a juicer that can also do wheat grass.  What other things do you juice?  Any recipe's?

    I juice carrott juice and beat juice.

    Wheat grass you have to use this little grinder. It costs about $100.00-but you can't use a juicer to do it.

    For juicing I think the good vegetables or important ones are carrotts, kale, beets, celery, and giner. I also do oj with Pinneapple every other day.

    I hate juicing- to me it is so nasty but there is no denying that within minutes of drinking it you feel really good.

    One thing -my skin is really nice and energy levels and blood work is quite good despite chemo and pregnancy.
