WHEATGRASS IN DIABETES


Wheatgrass in Naturopathy is hailed as ‘The Panacea on Earth’ by many famous Naturopaths and Dietitians around the world.Wheatgrass is high in dietary fiber and thus helps maintain blood sugar level.
DIETARY FIBRE:Although fiber is not a source of energy, its role in disease prevention is outstanding.   There are two types of fiber: 
1) Soluble fiber helps regulate blood sugar levels by delaying the absorption of carbohydrates and is particularly beneficial for diabetics. By increasing the excretion of cholesterol, it helps reduce blood cholesterol level, thus benefiting heart patients. It also reduces the formation of gall bladder stones. 
 2) Insoluble fiber provides bulk to the food and facilitates its movement in the intestine. It thus helps prevent constipation and reduces the possibility of toxins formation due to reduction in intestinal transit time.   
The reduction in quantity of fibrous foods from the modern mans diet is the major cause of many ailments. Supplementing its intake through Wheatgrass has shown good improvement in resolving digestion system problems (Diabetes) in particular.

Wheatgrass: Green Blood!

Wheatgrass juice is also known as GREEN BLOOD, do you wonder why?

We know that Wheatgrass contain large amounts of chlorophyll (the “blood” of plants), which is amazingly similar to hemoglobin, the molecule that carries oxygen in the blood.



Chlorophyll is soluble in fat particles, and since fat particles are absorbed directly in to the blood via the lymphatic system, there is evidence that chlorophyll can also be absorbed easily in this way. Essentially the “blood” of plants is easily absorbed into human blood, which transports nutrients efficiently to every cell of the body.

This explains why chlorophyll is so readily assimilated into our blood stream and our bodies are able to utilize its powerful properties. With the addition of Chlorophyll into our diet, we are consuming the very essence of life’s energy. Essentially the “blood” of plants is absorbed into human blood, which transports nutrients to every cell of the body.

Beating Cancer with Wheatgrass Juice!


Wheat grass is known as an alternative cancer therapy. 

Drinking of wheat grass juice helps your body to build red blood cells which carry oxygen to every cell. By increasing the oxygenation the body you can help offset smog and carbon monoxide and increase your endurance during physical exercise.  

The numerous ways wheatgrass deals with cancer is incredible. “If we look at oxygen as a bullet to kill cancer cells, then we should look at wheatgrass as a shotgun blast at treating cancer”. 
First of all it contains chlorophyll, which has almost the same molecular structure as haemoglobin. Chlorophyll increases haemoglobin production, meaning more oxygen gets to the cancer.
A Study at the University of California showed that wheatgrass contains an enzyme (P4D1) capable of repairing faulty DNA.  and Wheatgrass also contains- two CANCER fighting substances: 

(1). Abscises acid, a plant hormone along with Selenium, SOD, Laetrile (B-17) that stops the multiplication of cancer cells and destroys those already in existence
(2). Indole, which helps fight tumors.
The best part is that it has 'live enzymes'. Each enzyme performs a specific function within the body in conjunction with other enzymes and they control all the bodily functions.

 Alkalinity Chart Comparison of Fruits and Vegetables shows the high nutritive value of wheatgrass .
Wheatgrass is a complete food and feeds our bodies on the cellular level.  It contains a variety of vitamins, minerals, amino acids & enzymes.  Among the numerous active ingredients found in wheatgrass, enzymes stand out as the most important compound. They act as a “catalyst” in the body. It can be said that “if there is no enzyme, there is no life”. As we age, our body’s ability to synthesize enzymes reduces as well as the activity of enzymes diminish. Supplementing our body with enzymes enhances cellular activity on top of increasing the inherent enzyme reserves in our body. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is particularly important among various wheatgrass enzymes. It can effectively scavenge free radicals. Once the SOD reserve in the body drops, oxides induce pathological changes in cells and subsequently the cells lose their self-repair ability. SOD not only prevents various syndromes, it slows down the natural aging process.  SOD is an essential antioxidant in cell activation. In addition to scavenging free radicals and eliminating toxins, wheatgrass enzymes break down excessive fat and protein.
