About Wheatgrass

Dr. Chris Reynolds, an Australian medical practitioner, is the only doctor we are aware of anywhere who, when he first stumbled on the healing effects of wheatgrass, had the vision to develop the wheatgrass products available on this website. It is possible that he leads the world in this area. His clinical experience, scientific knowledge and understanding of how wheatgrass and other cereals can have such beneficial effects.

Please view Dr. Chris’ website where he presents a comprehensive coverage of what wheatgrass can do for healing and for staying healthy.

A large body of medical and scientific research relating to the therapeutic benefits of wheatgrass and other cereal grasses has accumulated since the early 1930’s. (View journal abstracts)

If you search under “Chlorophyll” or “Chlorophyllin” you will find numerous studies and reports. However, as our Medical Director says, “Chlorophyll has little or no biological effect in humans.”

Science has yet to understand that fact by continuing its belief that chlorophyll is the most important element for the healing process –  because it’s green, which is untrue.

I haven’t used the pulp or fresh wheatgrass juice on patients so I can’t give an informed response. I have however heard and read of a number of reports of healing using the juice. For instance in the United States in the 1930’s, wheat and other cereal grass extracts were used for the effective treatment of sinusitis. This was in the pre-antibiotic days when sinus infections frequently spread to the brain often causing fatal meningitis.

In one study of 2,000 patients, the pulp extracted from juicing cereal grasses was inserted into the patients’ sinus cavities and all of them recovered.

Yes.

Wheat allergies are usually due to gluten which comes from the actual wheat seed. Our wheatgrass extract is produced from young, vital wheatgrass sprouts before the new wheat seed is formed. Dr Wheatgrass Supershots are therefore gluten-free.

Please note: If you are concerned about wheat allergies, we recommend you consult your doctor/allergist or nutritional consultant before adding anything new to your diet, including Dr Wheatgrass Supershots.

No, not at all.

Much of wheatgrass marketing attributes the health-giving properties of wheatgrass juice to its nutritional content and chlorophyll. However, my view differs considerably.

In 1995, I discovered that chlorophyll most likely has little or no biological activity in humans. You can read more about this on my Wheatgrass Healing website.
