Is Dr Wheatgrass supporting medical research?
Yes. Very much so. Scientists at the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute in Melbourne recently discovered that the wheatgrass extract used in Dr Wheatgrass Supershots contains an as yet unidentified biologically active substance that strongly enhances the production of foetal haemoglobin in human clone cells(More information). This could lead to the reduction in blood transfusion requirements in thalassaemic patients, which would be a substantial medical breakthrough. Dr Wheatgrass is proud to be playing a part in this research and to be donating a percentage of all sales of our Supershots to this important cause.
What is thalassaemia?
Thalassaemia is an inherited condition that results in the production of abnormal hemoglobin, the molecules in the red blood cells that carry oxygen around the body. These patients require lifelong, usually monthly, blood transfusions and drugs to remove iron from the body. There are millions of sufferers worldwide.
