Wheatgrass Capsules

Hi, Akita -

I didn't do any scientific calculations to determine how many capsules John should take. I relied on the description I found at GNC.com for Eclectic Institutes Freeze Dried Wheatgrass that stated that 3 of their capsules are equal to one ounce of fresh juice. Since the India study used 30 ml of juice, and 30 ml is approximately equal to 2 ounces, I came up with the 6 caps/day dose. Our hematologist was unaware of the chelating properties of wheatgrass, but he is thrilled with the results we've experienced.
