Astounding success in the reversal of chronic degenerative diseases has been experienced through the application of a mainly 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 the high chlorophyll extract of seven day old wheat grass, juiced, 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. 
These two molecules are strikingly similar with the main difference being the central atom which is magnesium in the case of chlorophyll and iron in the case of heme. (see structures) The chlorophyll causes the green in natures plants and heme causes the red in our blood.

Thus we can see that within the context of this optimal and easily assimilated and utilized 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, crystallized 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 tumors.  Imagine the astonished rejoicings of persons labeled "terminal" who watch visible tumors 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) Chlorophyll 5,000 mg, Choline 4,000 mg, Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) 2,000 mg, Vitamin A (carotene) 360 mg, Vitamin E 120 mg, Vitamin F 120 mg, Vitamin K 120 mg, Niacin (B group vit) 120 mg, Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) 24 mg, Vitamin B1 (thiamine 12 mg, Pantothenic acid (B group vit) Vitamin B6 4 mg, It may seem that wheat grass contains relatively small amounts of the B vitamins, but in actuality the amounts compare favorably 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.

Dr. Norman Walker, a centenarian health researcher, had been living primarily on fruit and vegetables for over 60 years. He felt his longevity was due in large part of the liquid oxygen, enzymes and chlorophyll contained in fresh juices.

Chlorophyll is the "blood" of the plant. It is the protein in plant life that gives it its distinctive green or purple color. When compared to a molecule of hemoglobin, the oxygen carrier in human blood, chlorophyll is almost identical.

One of chlorophyll’s more important functions is to increase efficiency of oxygen utilization in the blood. Tests have shown that a high fat, high protein diet will reduce the oxygen supply in our blood. We then develop symptoms of low energy, sluggish digestion, and metabolism.
Unable to digest, assimilate and eliminate thoroughly, putrefaction occurs. A build up of acidic toxins, with a weakened immune system and reduced blood oxygen level, the body becomes ripe for cancer.
In his book, The Cause And Prevention Of Cancer, Dr. Otto Warburg, winner of a Nobel prize for physiology and medicine (1931) concluded that oxygen deprivation was a major cause of cancer and and that with a steady blood supply of oxygen to all the cells, cancer could be prevented indefinitely. His theory is supported today.

But without first eliminating causes of oxygen deprivation (such as smoking, high fat and high protein cooked foods, alcohol, drugs, poor breathing, and sedentary habits) any attempt to oxygenate the blood will fail, so we must put renewed oxygen into the blood stream to effect regeneration.
Breathing exercises, walking and diet are the safest ways to do this.
As for diet, all fresh raw vegetables, fruits, sprouts and greens, especially wheatgrass, have oxygen contained in the liquid.
When we eat, or drink or juice and drink these foods, our blood supply of oxygen increases. (see explanation)

By taking a percentage of green foods and juices every day, especially wheatgrass, you can add vital nutrients such as minerals, enzymes, vitamins, oxygen, and protein to your blood. Wheatgrass is baby wheat, it can be grown at home and is fast becoming a highly effective way of eliminating internal waste from the body. This cleansing allows the proper absorption of nutritious foods.

Pollution and processed and cooked foods have destroyed many of our digestive enzymes, which now can be supplemented by juicing, while at the same time providing concentrated selenium, which helps eliminate toxic heavy metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium and arsenic.

Most wheat allergies are due to the gluten found in the wheat berry, but wheatgrass is cut before the plant forms a grain (berry) and therefore has no gluten.
It’s an excellent addition to the diet of a person with allergies or blood sugar problems..

Healthier blood can lead only to a healthier, more vital body, better able to with stand stress without injury. (see juicers)
