50 Reasons To Drink Wheatgrass Everyday
1. Wheatgrass Juice is one of the best sources of living
chlorophyll available today. However, to get the full benefit, the chlorophyll must come fresh from a living plant.
2. Wheatgrass juice is
an effective healer because
it contains all minerals known to man, and vitamins A, B-complex, C, E, l and K. It is extremely
rich in protein, and contains 17 amino acids, the building blocks of protein.
3. Wheatgrass juice contains up
to 70% chlorophyll, which is an important blood builder. The chlorophyll
molecules closely resemble that of the hemin molecule, the pigment
which combines with protein to form hemoglobin. The major difference is
the chlorophyll molecule contains magnesium as it’s central atom, and
the hemin molecule contains iron. The molecular structure of these two
substances is almost identical in all other respects.
4.Chlorophyll contains enzymes
and super- oxide dismutase, a copper-containing protein found in mature
red blood cells. This enzyme decomposes superoxide radicals in the body
into a more manageable form, thereby
helping to slow down the aging process.
5. Chlorophyll is the first product of light and, therefore, contains more light energy than any other food element.
6. Wheatgrass juice contains
crude chlorophyll (as opposed to pure) and can be taken orally and as a
colon implant without side effects. In addition, scientists have never
found wheatgrass to be toxic in any amount when given to either animals
or humans.
7. Science has proven that chlorophyll arrests growth and development of unfriendly bacteria.
8. Chlorophyll is antibacterial and can be used inside and outside the body as a natural healer.
The United States Army exposed guinea pigs to lethal doses of
radiation. The guinea pigs fed chlorophyll-rich vegetables such as
cabbage and
broccoli had half the mortality rate as those fed a non-chlorophyll diet.
9. 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 115 minerals from the soil.
10. Liquid chlorophyll has the ability to get into the tissue, where it can actually refine and renew them.
11. The bland soothing effect of
chlorophyll (wheatgrass) ointments are very beneficial to the treatment
of various skin diseases involving the outer and underlying layers of
the skin, including: itching and burning of the rectum; ivy poisoning;
weeping and dry eczema and even in conditions caused by insect bites or
infection.
12. Doctors R. Redpath and J. C.
Davis found chlorophyll packs inserted into the sinuses had a drying
effect, clearing up congestion, and giving immediate relief. Congested
head colds were cleared up within 24 hours.
13. Liquid chlorophyll washes drug deposits from the body.
14. Chlorophyll
neutralizes toxins in the body.
15. Chlorophyll helps
purify the liver.
16. Chlorophyll improves
blood sugar problems.
17. In the American Journal of
Surgery (1940), Benjamin Gruskin, M.D. recommends chlorophyll for its
antiseptic benefits. The article suggests the following clinical uses
for chlorophyll: to clear up foul smelling odors, neutralize Strep
infections, heal wounds, hasten skin grafting, to cure chronic
sinusitis, overcome chronic inner ear inflammation and infection, reduce
varicose veins and heal leg ulcers, eliminate impetigo and other scabby
eruptions, heal rectal sores, successfully treat inflammation of the
uterine cervix, get rid of parasitic vaginal infections, reduce typhoid
fever, and cure advanced pyorrhea in many cases.
18. 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.”
19. Wheatgrass juice can dissolve
the scars that are formed in the lungs from breathing acid gasses. The
effect of carbon monoxide is minimized since chlorophyll increases
hemoglobin production.
20. Wheatgrass is high in oxygen
like all green plants that contain chlorophyll. This is beneficial
because the brain and all body tissues function at an optimal level in a
highly- oxygenated environment.
21. It is
a nutritionally complete food
which will sustain the growth and development of laboratory animals and
humans alike. Wheatgrass has what is called the grass-juice factor,
which has been shown to keep herbivorous animals alive practically
indefinitely.
22. Wheatgrass juice is a superior detoxification agent compared to carrot juice and other fruits and vegetables.
23. The starch of the wheat berry
is stored energy which when converted to simpler sugars is a quick
energy source. It is especially good for athletes because it is a juice
and is assimilated in 20 minutes or less, and uses very little of the
body’s energy to extract the nutrients…
24. Because
1 ounce of juice equals 2 pounds of produce nutritionally, it naturally shuts off the appestat in the brain.
25. Wheatgrass contains a full
spectrum of vitamins and minerals, including the thirteen essential
ones, combined with dozens of trace elements and enzymes.
26. Wheatgrass juice is
an effective healer because
it contains all minerals known to man, and vitamins A, B-complex, C, E, l and K. It is extremely
rich in protein, and contains 17 amino acids, the building blocks of protein.
27. Farmers in the Midwest who
have sterile cows and bulls put them on wheatgrass to restore fertility.
(The high magnesium content in chlorophyll builds enzymes that restore
the sex hormones.)
28. Wheatgrass juice cures acne and even help to remove scars after it has been ingested for seven to eight months.
The diet, of course, must be improved at the same time.
29. Wheatgrass juice acts as a detergent in the body and can be used as a body deodorant.
30. A small amount of wheatgrass juice in the human diet
helps prevent tooth decay.
31. Wheatgrass juice held in the mouth for 5 minutes will help eliminate toothaches. It pulls poisons from the gums.
32. Gargle wheatgrass juice for a
sore throat.
33. Drink wheatgrass juice for skin problems such as eczema or psoriasis.
34. Wheatgrass juice
helps to keep the hair from graying.
35. Pyorrhea of the mouth: lay
pulp of wheatgrass soaked in juice on diseased area in mouth or chew
wheatgrass, spitting out the pulp.
36. Wheatgrass juice improves the digestion.
37. 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.
38. Wheatgrass implants (enemas) are great for healing and
detoxifying
the colon walls. The implants also heal and cleanse the internal
organs. After an enema is evacuated, implant 4 ounces of wheatgrass
juice. Retain for 20 minutes.
39. Wheatgrass juice improves arthritis. Soak a cotton sock with 6 ounces and place on affected area, cover with plastic bag.
40. For minor eye irritation apply strained wheatgrass juice mixed with half pure water in an eye cup for 15 – 30 seconds.
41. Massage 6 ounces into the scalp and cover with shower cap for 15 minutes to help eliminate dandruff.
42. Wheatgrass juice can be used as a douche for many feminine complications.
43. Wheatgrass juice is great for constipation and keeping the bowels open because it is high in
magnesium.
44. Wheatgrass juice reduces high blood pressure and enhances the capillaries.
45. Wheatgrass juice can
remove heavy metals from the body.
46. Wheatgrass juice is great for
blood disorders of all kinds.
47. Another benefit of wheatgrass is you can grow it in just about a weeks, right in your own home.
48. Wheatgrass is
gluten-free because it’s cut before the grain forms.
49. Dr. Earp Thomas said, “Wheat
is the king of all grain foods”. He found that an ounce of wheatgrass in
a gallon of fluoridated water would turn the fluorine into harmless
calcium-phosphate-fluoride compound. Used in wash water it adds softness
to the face and hands. In the bath, it is most soothing. It stops
bleeding, eases itching, and helps sores and pimples to heal. Dr. Thomas
further discovered that fruits and vegetables contaminated by sprays
were thoroughly cleaned and the negative food transformed by wash water
with a wisp of wheatgrass placed in the water.
50. And finally – by taking
wheatgrass juice, one may feel an increase in strength and endurance,
renewed health and spirituality, and experience an overall sense of
well-being.
