Some research has even indicated that the risk of cancer can be reduced by fifty per cent, by ensuring adequate amounts of green foods in the diet. Researchers have found that wheat grass contains natural antiseptics and antibiotics, that seem to stimulate healing by promoting cell regeneration evidence.

Obesity

Wheatgrass suppresses appetite. A glass of high quality wheatgrass juice can replace a meal. It provides quick energy boost, a sense of well-being and stamina. The fiber in wheatgrass has a bulking effect which gives a feeling of fullness. People taking wheatgrass feel full for a long time, enabling them to lessen the frequency of eating and lessen their food intake.

Another reason why wheatgrass can suppress the appetite is that the appetite center in the brain shuts down once the body has managed to ingest all its nutrient requirements.

Wheatgrass contains more than 100 types of enzymes that speed up metabolism and help burn fats. It is important to note that as we grow older, these enzymes decline in quantity and strength which weakens the body's ability to handle fats, proteins and excess calories.

Wheatgrass prevents acidity in the body by providing alkaline minerals and chlorophyll. When there is too much acid in the system, the body pushes the acids to fat cells. The more acid there is in fat cells, the harder it is to burn and the harder it is for you to lose weight.

Anaemia

Years ago, wheatgrass has been given to patients with iron deficiencies and proved to be effective in restoring the blood to normal.
Chlorophyll in wheatgrass rebuilds the bloodstream. More recent research indicates that some porphyrins (ringed structures in chlorophyll) stimulate the formation of the protein portion of the hemoglobin molecule. This explains the effect of chlorophyll in blood production.

Other than chlorophyll, iron, niacin (B3), cyanocobalamin (B12), folic acid, copper, potassium and protein in wheatgrass, are all involved in healthy red blood cell production, making wheatgrass an excellent remedy for anemia and other blood disorders.

High Blood Pressure

Wheatgrass is rich in magnesium since this is the core mineral found in every chlorophyll molecule. Magnesium has a relaxing and dilating effect on the blood vessels. It can relax constricted blood vessels and make them larger so that blood can flow freely and pressure on the walls of the blood vessels will be lessened.

The antioxidants in wheatgrass prevent oxidation of cholesterol in the blood, or when the cholesterol sticks to the walls of the blood vessels. Antioxidants prevent cholesterol plaque formation or atherosclerosis.

The fiber in wheatgrass also prevents absorption of cholesterol from the food, thus regulating cholesterol level in the blood.

Diabetes

When taken before a meal, fiber in wheatgrass regulates the absorption of sugar and cholesterol from the food. This prevents the sudden rise of blood sugar level, which is commonly experienced by diabetic patients after a meal. Wheatgrass contains a high level of magnesium, a mineral that’s the main element in chlorophyll. Magnesium supplementation has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity. According to studies, magnesium repletion may play a role in delaying type 2 diabetes onset and in potentially warding off its devastating complications like cardiovascular disease, retinopathy, nephropathy. More, other nutrients in wheatgrass support the energy level and overall health of diabetics.

Fight Cancer with Go Green Wheatgrass

The enzymes P4D1 and Abscissic Acid (ABA), both found in wheatgrass, strip cancer cells' protective covering so that our body's immune system can attack and easily destroy them. According to some studies, abscissic acid is a formidable anti-cancer agent that, even in small amounts, it's deadly against any form of cancer. Numerous health problems were proven to be alleviated by simply consuming wheatgrass. Other enzymes and amino acids also found in wheatgrass help with digestion, lower blood pressure, break down cancer cells, aid the liver and improve the immune system.

Cancer cells cannot thrive in an alkaline and well-oxygenated environment. As such, wheatgrass is a powerful food for cancer patients since it helps provide an alkaline environment to the cells while chlorophyll oxygenates the body.

Antioxidants, e.g. SOD, Vitamins C, E, bioflavonoids, carotenoids and other phytochemicals and enzymes, are also abundant in wheatgrass. These prevent cell damage and mutation that may lead to cancer or hasten spread of cancer cells in the body. In fact, enzymes and amino acids in wheatgrass have been shown to deactivate the carcinogenic benzopyrene found in charcoal broiled meat and smoke fish.

Wheatgrass also contains B17 (laetrile), which is effective in fighting some cancers and is commonly used by alternative doctors nowadays.
