See book keywords and concepts |  Wheat sprouts and wheat grass are rich in chlorophyll, and the antimutagenic activity of wheat sprouts may be accounted for by the presence of this substance, which is known to have antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic activities (see Chlorophyll/Chlorophyllin). Other substances, including flavonoids, may also play a role in these possible activities. Barley grass extracts have been found to protect human fibroblasts against carcinogenic agents. Again, chlorophyll may, in part, account for this effect. | | The mechanism of the antimutagenic effect is unclear. wheat sprouts and wheat grass are rich in chlorophyll, and the antimutagenic activity of wheat sprouts may be accounted for by the presence of this substance, which is known to have antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic activities (see Chlorophyll/Chlorophyllin).

See book keywords and concepts |  An excellent form of wheat is cooked wheat sprouts. Fruit is best eaten in the morning or afternoon as a meal by itself. Milk is also ideally taken by itself, although other dairy such as yogurt or cheese combines well at a meal with citrus.
Cooked food is used almost exclusively in traditional monasteries and by nearly all recognized meditation masters. Even the ancient Essenes, who lived in hot, arid regions, lightly cooked their wheat sprouts with solar heat. |

I also saw a patient who enjoyed a temporary (1-year) but quite dramatic partial reversal of his graying hair using wheat grass juice.

Another method for making sprout milk is to juice the sprouts and add water or rejuvelac for the desired consistency. Sprouts are high in vitamins, minerals, and enzymes and support fast growth in babies and children in general. Use sprouts more often in the spring and summer and less in the fall and winter, and also less for children and infants who are weak, pale, and passive (deficient). | | In these conditions, even if wheat allergy exists, one may benefit from its hypoallergenic forms: fresh wheat germ, presoaked, cooked kamut or spelt berries, cooked wheat sprouts, and "Essene" sprouted-wheat bread. Rejuvelac wheat drink (page 573) promotes healthful intestinal flora.

See book keywords and concepts |  These wheat sprouts are genetically selected and grown in a way that produces a high concentration of antioxidant enzymes, such as superoxide dismutases, methionine reductases, glutathione peroxidases, and catalases.
The two main enzyme companies that produce these wheat sprout antioxidants are Bioguard and Biotech. According to Dr. Steven Levine and Parris Kidd, in their book Antioxidant Adaptation: Its Role in Free Radical Pathology, antioxidant enzymes are the first line of defense against free radical stress. | | Antioxidant enzymes from wheat sprouts not only protect against all types of radiation exposure, but protect against the dangerous level of air, water, and food pollution, which also increases our exposure to free radicals. Mental stress and severe viral infections can greatly increase the amount of free radicals in the system. As explained in detail in Spiritual Nutrition and The Rainbow Diet, free radicals are intimately connected with speeding up the aging process.
These live enzymes are specially formulated, organic, whole-food supplements which are designed to neutralize free radicals. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Even the ancient Essenes, who lived in hot, arid regions, lightly cooked their wheat sprouts with solar heat. Although more nutrients are available from raw food, it may be that fewer of these nutrients are absorbed compared with lightly cooked food. According to Chinese medicine, cooked food strengthens the digestive absorption and transport of nutrients. To the spiritual seeker this means that cooked food supplies better nutrition to the nervous system and hormonal/glandular centers. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Protection
Turmeric root, wheat sprouts, schisandra berries, amla fruit, beet root, and milk thistle seed are major sources of protective antioxidants for the liver cells, as are fruits that contain flavonoids, especially citrus fruits. These should be used to prevent development of inflammatory disease, or for damage protection as in the case of persons taking strong chemical drugs or undergoing chemotherapy.
Correcting Deficiency
The liver can become weakened and deficient. If this is not corrected, it can lead to liver atrophy and depletion of glycogen stores, even hepatitis. |

When administered to Chernobyl workers involved in the infamous nuclear accident, ginkgo leaf extract inhibited blood levels of radiation-induced chromosome-damaging factors by 83%.

I usually treat them with 3 900-mg tablets twice per day for periods of 3 to 6 weeks. I instruct patients to drink a large volume of water, as the poisons seem to be flushed out through the urine. | | Such herbs include bupleurum root, dandelion root, and wheat sprouts.
• In cases where the patient presents with a pale tongue and severe exhaustion, add nourishing herbs like dang gui root or cooked rehmannia root.
• It is imperative that CFS patients get plenty of daily rest and good sleep. Herbs like valerian root, kava root, or skullcap tincture can be useful if patients have difficulty sleeping.
• Studies indicate that short bursts of daily exercise (not for extended periods of time) can be of great benefit for CFS patients. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Especially in its sprouted form, rye is rich in vitamin E, phosphorus, magnesium, and silicon. Like wheat sprouts, rye sprouts sweeten as they lengthen because the natural starches turn to sugar. For salad purposes, use the rye sprout when it's the same size as the grain; allow it to lengthen up to one inch for a sweeter intestinal-cleansing sprout and for cooking. Rye can also be harvested as a grass and chewed for its juice.
The whole rye berry is a good grain, adding chewiness and nutritious value, to combine with rice (use about one part rye to two parts rice). |

Many herbal laxatives are definitely suspect as toxic to fetal activity. Such herbs as mandrake (American), senna, and aloe are to be avoided. Even cascara sagrada, buckthorn, or other rhamnus species are to be avoided, for although they are not directly toxic, they can be irritating. |

See book keywords and concepts |  One group of researchers has found that extracts from the roots and leaves of wheat sprouts selectively inhibit some of the adverse effects of some known cancer-causing substances—at least in laboratory studies. Chlorophyll, the pigment that gives plants their green color and is fundamental for the conversion of the sun's energy into carbohydrates, has been identified as one of the factors that inhibit the mutation-promoting effect of carcinogens requiring metabolic activation. There is some evidence chlorophyll may be an antioxidant. |

Other wheat species ('/.' compactum, dicoccon, monococcum, polonicum, spelta and turgidum) are occasionally cultivated as cereal plants in Europe, Asia and North Africa. Some of these are grown in North America (including T. polonicum (m.a.)), named "kamut" after the Egyptian word for wheat and falsely described, for commercial reasons, as the oldest kind of wheat).
