Wheat-grass

Just recently I came across the idea of drinking a blend of wheat grass for health benefits. I've heard that the grass, which is usually blended and drank like a shot, has some of the same incredible vitamins that dark vegetables provide.

So is it worth it?
This article from Stanford writes wheat grass off as a marketing gimic, while this site provides 40 reasons to wheat grass benefits.

While some sites boast the extreme levels of nutrients and other benefits, the old fashion approach to meeting nutritional guidelines will stand strong as my favorite method. After all, sticking to a recommended diet with a multi-vitamin will help you satisfy multiple aspects of your diet.
What's your take on wheat grass?
