Why Wheatgrass enema?

Always remember its main producer, the sun! Without the sun, there would be no chlorophyll.
No chlorophyll, no phytonutrient sfor us to use for blood cleansing and repair!

The virtues of wheatgrass

Packed with chlorophyll, “all plants own blood and life force”, wheatgrass is able to increase our blood supply and transform it into a super oxygen-carrier, therefore, boosting our oxygen supply too. By doing so, it creates a well-oxygenated environment, which suppresses bacterial overgrowth (1).These microorganisms, if in too many numbers in our gut, could potentially wreck havoc with our digestion.

Wheatgrass has twice the amount of vitamin A as carrots and is higher in vitamin C than oranges. This amazing cereal grass contains an approximate 20% of protein level, which is about the same as many meats, but a different amino-acid/ protein profile being a vegetal source, making it a complete source of protein. Wheatgrass can pick up more than 90 minerals out of the estimated possible 102 found in rich soil! It is such a versatile grass as to also being super rich in digestive enzymes and anti-oxidants. It has the ability to cleanse our cells on such a deep level, that it is capable of inhibiting oxidative DNA damage (2).

It has an anti-inflammatory property and has the ability to strengthen all body tissues, including those of the heart and arteries. It can also reduce blood fat. And because wheatgrass might be a little more difficult to digest for some compare to barley grass, administering it via enema, would be an easier option to benefit from all of its wonderful virtues.


How does wheatgrass enema work?

Such a cooling and a fast body toxins remover, wheatgrass works with the liver by enhancing its antioxidant mechanism (3). By doing so, it will improve digestion and help one to regain energy.

The mucous membrane of the rectum/colon is extremely porous. It will readily absorbs administered wheatgrass with fast delivery to the target area via the bloodstream. This route will produce the same effect as orally ingested wheatgrass, however it acts a lot faster: so many times you will see the effect of an enema in minutes, due to the blood delivery via the portal veins and into the general circulation. Hence this route is excellent for delivery, as to cleanse and boost the liver's antioxidant mechanism.

The enema is administered at a temperature between 34 to 39 degre Celsius.
