If you’re thinking that wheatgrass sounds like a leafy green plant that people put in smoothies because it’s packed with nutrients, well, congrats—you couldn’t be more correct. But get this: because the ingredient is abundant in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, wheatgrass can also be highly beneficial when it comes to skincare.
Adam Freidman, MD, professor and chair of the Department of Dermatology at the George Washington University (GW) School of Medicine and Health Sciences, and Pooja Sodha, MD, a board-certified dermatologist and director of the Center for Laser and Cosmetic Dermatology at the GW Medical Faculty Associates, calls wheatgrass “a complete superfood.”
