                                While some marketing claims suggest that one ounce of wheatgrass juice has the nutritional equivalent of several pounds of vegetables, experts disagree. This popular health food, often praised for its high chlorophyll content, is not a total replacement for the complex nutritional profile found in a balanced intake of various whole vegetables.
