Hi Margarete!

I noticed, when buying US-grown wheatgrass that, as you say, it tends to be significantly older than that used in the studies. But I haven't seen studies that indicate the chelating potential decrease with age. Have you run across articles that suggest this?

Thanks for your posts on the subject. They are always great food for thought.
