Hey Dena!

A little digging around took me in the same direction that Marlene mentions: it seems like some folks who are into chelation (as in for kids with autism) use milk thistle to protect the liver during the process.

Though the research on wheatgrass as a chelator all seems to involve the fresh-pressed juice, there are lots of folks on marrowforums who seem to have had success with either the powder or the pills, whether those are compressed powder or freeze-dried juice.

I'm on the compressed tablets at the moment, and will have a ferritin check next week, so that should give me some idea of whether the grass is working for me.

Thanks for the explanation on the virus.

Take care!

Greg
