Which has more health benefits, this ground form or fresh?

I would think the fresh is better, but this ground is exceptional. I always use it because for me, it is the closest thing to real for a much easier to use and much less expensive alternative to fresh.

I tend to agree with lot2read. Pretty much sums it up. The work to produce consumable "fresh" may not be worth the time to many.

I suspect the fresh form is better but most people will want to purchase the ground form. Easier to use and they will not have to grow it in their back yard. It may not degrade much from being ground and stored because evidently the health benefits remain after cooking. This particular brand is not as processed as some others that I have used -- it is coarser and softer and slightly moist. I have read that carrots and garlic become healthier if you dice them more finely. This may be a nice compromise between the raw root and the finely ground dry powders that I often find. This is my favorite brand so far. I want to start gardening but not waste time on turmeric as long as I can get this brand from Amazon.

There is no doubt that fresh grown wheatgrass is full of the beneficial enzymes that we all seek when trying to do the healthy thing. However, growing fresh wheatgrass is a pain, and you only get two cuttings from one crop. So, unless you have a huge greenhouse, or are willing to pay for the fresh cuttings that may not be so fresh, powder is my choice. You still get the the vitamins and minerals at a concentrated level. Remember, if bought fresh, any product that sits loses it potency.

Neither. It's seed ground up but not in powder format. It's kind of like small bits. Still drinkable or I also like it with my protein shakes.

Try it from your store first if you have doubts. My experience is that it has a whole grain texture. I like it.

Yes. The Garden of Life has found that by "Juicing" is a more healthy alternative than being dried and ground up. All the greens found in this product are juiced, which allows you to get the maximum amount of nutrients. The product is treated with a low temperature drying process, resulting in a powder that is densely packed with water soluble nutrients.

It's plant based and not artificial ingredients so I would say it's safer than the man made stuff. It's all natural and plant based totally.

Steel cut (Irish) oats are healthier as they are not overprocessed and take longer to digest than rolled oats.

I'm not sure how it compares to fresh raw food but according to the packaging it's dried raw food that can be served dry or wet. I hope I answered your question.

Boost the immune system! God made dirt, dirt won't hurt! Everything we eat touched the ground and other stuff at some point. Grain is harvested out of fields that are fertilized with manure, driven in semi trucks, hauled in rail cars, moved around by front loaders, dumped into container ships and barges. Carrots are potatoes are grown in soil again fertilized with manure which I remind you is animal poop. We harvest and move them in similar ways to grain. If you are worried about a little bit of stuff getting on the outside of your ice cream ball, then wash off the outside before use, then rinse it after rolling it around and before opening it up.

I bought the bean as there are not many options for ground. It's worth it, the bean stays fresh longer and better flavor. I routinely buy this brand, less acidic for my health an smooth. They range from weak to really strong. Great coffee.

I'm sure fresh is always better, I have the plant in my backyard. But, the fresh plant when used smells like B.O..

Somewhere in between. Better than instant, but, of course, not as good as fresh ground coffee made from good beans and brewed in a French press.

Very close to fresh popped. I have been to movie theaters and watched as large plastic bags of popcorn were brought in to be served/sold. This certainly tastes better. Also far better than microwave.

Very fresh. Does not appear to be oxidized at all, at least when I've ordered it :)

Yes, it is organic and it is ground from whole seeds. It's ready to use out of the package, in ground form.
