Wheatgrass juice and how to grow it

Anti oxidants responsible for the elimination of toxic heavy metals, such as lead and mercury.
Anti aging properties including A B complex C E and super oxide dissimulates.
Concentrated sources of selenium, which helps eliminate pollutants.
Chlorophyll, which has the ability to break down carbon dioxide and release free oxygen.
Choline. Which prevents the deposition of fats in the liver.
Magnesium, which draws out excess fat (aiding the liver)
Potassium, which invigorates and stimulates the liver.
Wheatgrass has an abundance of alkaline minerals, which help reduce over acidity in the blood.

Allergies and sensitivities
Wheatgrass is different from wheat.
One is a grain the other a green vegetable.
The green vegetable grass contains no gluten.
Most wheat allergies are due to the gluten in the grain.

Therefore it is no more allergenic than spinach or lettuce.
Whaetgrass actually contains antiallergic factors.
Allergies are immune responses to toxic irritants.
Detoxification is crucial to any allergy treatment problem.

35 POINTS ABOUT WHEATGRASS

1 Wheatgrass Juice is one of the best sources of living chlorophyll available.
2 Chlorophyll is the first product of light and, therefore, contains more light energy than any other element.
3 Wheatgrass juice is a crude chlorophyll and can be taken orally and as a colon implant without toxic side effects.
4 Chlorophyll is the basis of all plant life.
5 Wheatgrass is high in oxygen like all green plants that contain chlorophyll. The brain and all body tissues function at an optimal level in a highly-oxygenated environment.
6 Chlorophyll is antibacterial and can be used inside and outside the body as a healer.
7 Dr. Bernard Jensen says that it only takes minutes to digest wheatgrass juice and uses up very little body energy.
8 Science has proven that chlorophyll arrests growth and development of unfriendly bacteria.
9 Chlorophyll (wheatgrass) rebuilds the bloodstream. Studies of various animals have shown chlorophyll to be free of any toxic reaction. The red cell count was returned to normal within 4 to 5 days of the administration of chlorophyll, even in those animals which were known to be extremely anemic or low in red cell count.
10 Chlorophyll can be extracted from many plants, but wheatgrass is superior because it has been found to have over 100 elements needed by man. If grown in organic soil, it absorbs 92 of the known 102 minerals from the soil.
11 Wheatgrass has what is called the grass-juice factor, which has been shown to keep herbivorous animals alive indefinitely.
12 Dr. Ann Wigmore has been helping people get well form chronic disorders for 30 years using wheatgrass.
13 Liquid chlorophyll gets into the tissues, refines them and makes them over.
14 Wheatgrass Juice is a superior detoxification agent compared to carrot juice and other fruits and vegetables.
15 Liquid chlorophyll washes drug deposits from the body.
16 Chlorophyll neutralizes toxins in the body.
17 Chlorophyll helps purify the liver.
18 Chlorophyll improves blood sugar problems.

19 Wheatgrass Juice can cure acne and even removes scars after it has been ingested for seven to eight months. The diet must be improved at the same time.
20 Wheatgrass juice acts as a detergent in the body and is used as a body deodorant.
21 A small amount of wheatgrass juice in the human diet can prevent tooth decay.
22 Wheatgrass juice held in the mouth for 5 minutes can eliminated toothaches. It pulls poisons from the gums.
23 Gargle Wheatgrass Juice for a sore throat.
24 Drink Wheatgrass Juice for skin problems such as eczema or psoriasis.
25 Pyorrhea of the mouth: lay pulp of wheatgrass soaked in juice on diseased area in mouth or chew wheatgrass spitting out the pulp.
26 By taking Wheatgrass Juice, one may feel a difference in strength, endurance, health, and spirituality, and experience a sense of well-being. 27 Wheatgrass juice improves the digestion.
28 Wheatgrass juice is high in enzymes.
29 Wheatgrass juice is an excellent skin cleanser and can be absorbed through the skin for nutrition. Pour green juice over your body in a tub of warm water and soak for 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse off with cold water.
30 Wheatgrass juice is great for constipation and keeping the bowels open. It is high in magnesium. 31 Dr. Birscher, a research scientist, called chlorophyll "concentrated sun power." He said, "chlorophyll increases the function of the heart, affects the vascular system, the intestines, the uterus, and the lungs. "
32 According to Dr. Birscher, nature uses chlorophyll (wheatgrass) as a body cleanser, rebuilds, and neutralizer of toxins.
33 Wheatgrass Juice can reduce high blood pressure and enhances the capillaries.
34 Wheatgrass Juice can remove heavy metals from the body.
35 Wheatgrass juice is great for blood disorders of all kinds
(TO GET THE FULL BENEFIT OF CHLOROPHYLL IT MUST BE FROM A LIVING PLANT.).

WHEAT GRASS AGAINST DISEASE A GREAT HOPE FOR AILING HUMANITY

A virtual epidemic of chronic degenerative disease is afflicting the western world: from cancer to heart disease; from arthritis to schizophrenia; from diabetes to the common cold. These diseases and so many more, increasingly subjugate a people attuned more to affording sickness than enjoying the natural state of health which is our birthright. The statistics for cancer, for example, are starkly and devastatingly illustrative of the extent to which our well-being is threatened.
The information below was already valid for the 1980's in the U.S.A.
"Last year over 405,000 Americans died from cancer."
"Almost 56 million Americans now living will eventually have cancer."
"In 1980, about 708,000 people we diagnosed as having cancer."
"Cancer kills more children age three to four than any other disease."
"The overall incidence of cancer has increased between 5% and 10% since 1970."
(Excerpted from "Cancer Facts and Figures:1980," The American Cancer Society, Inc., 777 Third Ave., New York, NY 10017) A meaningless litany of mere statistics? The real costs of cancer, in terms of human fear, hopelessness and death which have left no family unscathed, suggest not. Astounding success in the reversal of chronic degenerative diseases has been experienced through the application of a vegetarian diet of living foods consisting of wheat grass juice, immature greens, sprouts, fruit, vegetables, and sprouted and/or fermented seeds, nuts and grains. The use of 70% chlorophyll extract of seven day old wheat grass is central to the rejuvenation process and the reversal of disease. The effects of this wheat grass juice on the diseased organism are two-fold: first it provides an optimal nutritional environment for the healing process; and second, it catalyses a detoxification process which increases the elimination of accumulated internal waste which causes disease by autointoxication.
Let us examine more closely each of these two processes. Scientific analysis has demonstrated that grass grown from wheat is a perfectly complete food in itself, capable of sustaining life in a healthy way. Dr. G.H Earp Thomas, a soil expert at the Bloomfield Laboratories in Massachusetts, isolated over 100 elements, including all the known minerals, from wheat grass. His calculations indicate that 15lbs of fresh wheat grass is equivalent in nutritional value to 350lbs of choicest vegetables. Studies have shown that wheat grass is an excellent source of vitamins A, B, C, E and K, as well as calcium, chlorine, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, sulphur, cobalt and zinc. Further, the chemical structure of the chlorophyll molecule in wheat grass reveals that it is remarkably adapted to utilisation of the human blood stream, by virtue of its similarity to the hemin molecule of haemoglobin. (Haemoglobin is one of the major components of our blood.) These two molecules are essentially identical with the exception of the central atom which is magnesium in the case of chlorophyll and iron in the case of hemin. Thus we can see that within the context of this optimal and easily assimilated and utilised nourishment, the human body has the fundamental components with which to eliminate disease and regenerate itself.
This healing process occurs as the therapeutic chlorophyll in wheat grass juice catalyses the elimination of the stored toxins which cause disease. These toxins are present in the ailing organism in the form of hardened mucous, crystallised acids, fatty deposits, calcifications and solidified, decaying fecal matter.
As these toxins are eliminated, the body is cleansed and brought back to its natural state of health.
Wheat grass juice has a very high enzyme content which helps to dissolve tumours. Imagine the astonished rejoicings of persons labelled "terminal" who watch visible tumours disintegrate and disappear before their very eyes.
The following data on the nutrients contained by the first joint wheat grass (7-10" tall) is taken from a report Dr. C.F. Schnabel made to the American Chemical Society. NUTRIENT MILLIGRAMS PER POUND (453.59G) Chlorophyll 5,000 mg Choline 4,000 mg Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) 2,000 mg Vitamin A (carotene) 360 mg Vitamin E 120 mg Vitamin F 120 mg Vitamin K 120 mg Niacin (B group vit) 120 mg Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) 24 mg Vitamin B1 (thiamine) 12 mg Pantothenic acid (B group vit) 8 mg Vitamin B6 4 mg It may seem that wheat grass contains relatively small amounts of the B vitamins, but in actuality the amounts compare favourably with latest research on vitamin B needs as compared to C and A. All in all, wheat grass juice is a potent food/medicine that has many uses.

GROWING WHEATGRASS

1. Soak organic seeds in cold water for 12 hours (overnight)
2. Rest seeds for 12 hours drain in suitable container (large jar perhaps with open mesh lid) or
    in sprouting bag.
3. Give 5-minute drink before sowing.
4. Sow in organic soil, press seeds down firmly so they can make contact with mother earth
    (organic soil) and form a thick carpet.
5. Cover with 4-8 layers of soaking wet newspaper or wet cheesecloth.
6. To prevent seed coming in contact with newspaper use thin layer of wet paper towels.
7. In 4 days the wheat sprout will lift the top cover.
8. Remove the cover, wet thoroughly ( but allow to drain ) and relocate somewhere warm and
    sunny ( only morning sun )
9. 7-10 days the grass will be 12-15cm high and ready to be harvested.
10. Cut as close to the base as possible.
11. Juice, drink and enjoy feeling very alive.
