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. (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) 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. VEGETARIANISM or close?
Vegetarianism, has many
social and moral implications. The food crises need not be. Written on an Egyptian
tomb in about the year 3000BC was "Man lives on one fourth the food he eats
and the doctors on the other three fourths". The body efficiency rate is 18%
to 22%. By that is meant that 18-22% of the food we eat is used to build the
body. The other 78-82% is used by the body to digest and transport food to the
vital body tissues. If we eat meat, which is difficult to digest, the efficiency
rate drops, plus we are not receiving the best form of protein. Hormones to
fatten animals, uric acid and excessive cholesterol (saturated fats) aren't
found in vegetable proteins. so the body efficiency rate drops even more. Perhaps
now it is 8-12%. If we eat junk foods devoid of most nutritional elements, our
body efficiency rate may enter into the negative factor, meaning that our bodies
are actually expending more energy to rid itself of the foreign elements than
it is taking in. The result is we eat more food of less nutritional value. Why
not reverse that the vegetarian way, but only if it feels right for you. While it does not mean that
we all must become vegetarians to become healthy, it does mean that reducing
meat intake and increasing intake of raw fruits, vegetables and wheatgrass,
will dramatically improve our health. Taking these in the form of juices, makes it much easier
for the body to assimilate them, in fact they enter the blood stream within 15
minutes, while solid food is subject to the ability of the digestive juices to
break down the food and extract the nutrients, which also takes hours and
requires energy from the body to do so. THE GREEN JUICE'S PRAYER Our green juice, which art in wheatgrass, and other
leafy greens, Hallowed be thy name. Aaaah-men
