Wheatgrass
Triticum aestivum
 One
of the Superfoods that, when used with a cleansing
program, moves the person suffering from so-called
incurable diseases to relieving their pain and bringing
about recovery. Research has shown that 100 pounds of
Wheatgrass has the nutritional value of 2500 pounds of
vegetables. Another research project at Anderson
Hospital and Tumor Institute has discovered that eating
green vegetables will stop the progress of cancer in the
colon.
Other Superfoods are Blue-Green Algae, Chlorella broken
cell Algae, Nettle leaf, Purple Dulse, Spinach leaf,
Alfalfa grass, Barley grass, Astragalus root, Lemon
peal, Beet root, etc.
Wheat grass, due to its high Chlorophyll content, stops
the development of unfriendly bacteria, expels metals
from the body, is beneficial for the lungs, normalizes
red blood cell counts, and is good for body building and
increasing energy.
Wheatgrass juice contains many anti-aging ingredients
such as super oxide dismutase (SOD), vitamins A, B
complex, C, and E, chlorophyll, as well as a full
spectrum of minerals, enzymes, and amino acids. Animal
experiments have shown Wheatgrass fed animals to live
well through generations. In male and female cows, that
had lost the ability to reproduce, when fed Wheatgrass
after two months their reproductive potency returned and
they produced offspring again.
For weight reduction, Wheatgrass is potent at
suppressing the appetite, raising the metabolism and
circulation, and providing the body with concentrated
nutrition.
One of the greatest proponents of the cereal grasses and
one of my heroes is Dr. Ann Wigmore founder of the
Hippocrates Health Institute in Boston. Suffering from a
number of health problems, including colon cancer, and
crushed legs from a car accident, doctors told her that
the legs would have to come off. Ann said no and went
home. She remembered that her grandmother had assisted
wounded solders during the First World War with cereal
grasses like wheat and barley. She tried the remedy,
growing the Wheatgrass in her back yard, and it worked.
Her legs healed and the colon cancer was cured. From
that point on Ann became a Naturopath assisting people
with incurable diseases. One of her books is "The
Wheatgrass Book".
Wheatgrass juice is best combined with other fresh
juices or taken in one to three ounce servings. For
best results, sip fresh-squeezed Wheatgrass juice on and
empty or near-empty stomach, taking a couple of minutes
to finish.
