Introduction
Since 1995 I have used a wheatgrass extract that has successfully treated a broad spectrum of medical conditions and injuries, often when standard treatments had failed. For example, these patients suffering from various medical conditions, not only recovered, but suffered no adverse side effects.
The extract contains at least 20 ligands that appear to reconnect dysfunctional peripheral cellular receptors to the brain - and the brain responds - often instantaneously
These conditions (for which no restorative medical treatments exist) e.g. venous leg ulcers, second-degree burns, and leprosy ulcers - support my theory.
In Figure 1 for instance, the extract appears to have relieved the pain caused by a minor second-degree burn, thereby hastening healing. Note also that the blister has remained intact, (i.e. it hasn't burst), thereby preventing wound infection. Compare this minor burn with the severe radiation burns in Figure 2, which have also healed rapidly, with pain relieved
In Figure 2, the patient has suffered severe, deep radiation burns that normally would have taken several weeks or even months to heal. Instead, ligands in the wheatgrass extract appear to have re-connected damaged, dysfunctional cellular receptors to the patient's brain, which responds by trying to restore his severely damaged skin. Note absence of inflammation in the picture on the right - which is also pain-free. These burn wounds recovered in just two weeks after the accident. (View case.)

How does the extract work?
Apparently, at least 20 different ligands in the extract have re-connected dysfunctional cellular receptors to the brain (e.g. as seen in Fig. 2.),
In the following list of conditions, all cellular receptors have apparently been reactivated.

How wheatgrass extract apparently works
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) prevents most drugs (other than very small molecules) from influencing the brain directly. However, ligands that exist in wheatgrass extract appear to reactivate dysfunctional cellular receptors, enabling them to reconnect with the brain.
Ligands are molecules that activate cellular-receptor DNA to release neurotransmitters for sending sensory messages such as pain, pressure, taste, vision, touch etc., to the brain.
For instance, in Figure 4 "disabled" connections to the brain from lungs, intestines, liver, heart etc. may lead to broad dysfunctionality of associated organs.
Famous scientist proves wheatgrass extract influences gene expression
On 28th July, 2004, the late Professor Panayiotus (Panos) Ioannou, a famous scientist at the Murdoch Children's Research Institute in Melbourne, Australia, was amazed to see my therapeutical wheatgrass extract induce production of fetal hemoglobin in murine mice - apparently by influencing gene expression of cellular receptors signalling the brain - like an “on/off switch”. If carefully regulated, positive changes occurred, particularly of numerous biological processes. (See Figure 3. Wheatgrass inductions of clones.)
He reported: “Our measurements suggest a 3-5 fold increase in the production of fetal hemoglobin by the wheatgrass extract. This is a substantial increase and could certainly provide an explanation why some thalassaemic patients may derive significant benefit from it.”
"These results," he continued, "albeit in vitro, increased the possibility that the beneficial effects of freshly juiced wheatgrass noted by Marwaha, et al. [an Indian hematologist], may be due to the induction of gamma-globin chain synthesis, leading to greater fetal hemoglobin content in the red cell (i.e. IT INFLUENCES GENE EXPRESSION.")
He continued, "This hypothesis needs further study, but it holds the promise of some very exciting and simple therapeutic possibilities that may preclude the need for repeated blood transfusions.”
The Professor was correct, and he strongly supported my own theory that wheatgrass heals by reactivating dysfunctional cellular receptors throughout the body. (See Fig. 5.)
Panos, aged 54, tragically succumbed to cancer on 18 April, 2005. However, he left behind his discovery of the extraordinary biological functions provided by wheatgrass extract that has since assisted restoration of a broad spectrum of illnesses and injuries for many. (See, common and rare conditions and injuries respond to wheatgrass extract.)
Strangely, Panos' scientific colleagues ignored his "discovery", claiming that ethanol was the "magical" cause, even though I had collected a large volume of patients who rapidly responded positively to the extract - particularly after standard treatments had failed.
How does wheatgrass extract ease pain and heal so many medical conditions and injuries?
In Figure 5, we see how cell receptors signal pain from a pin prick in the skin to the brain via the neurotransmitter, Substance P. The "victim" instantly withdraws his/her hand, but if wheatgass extract is applied to the painful area, pain eases quickly because of the negative effect of Substance P preventing it from reaching the brain.
Note: Many "infertile" women have conceived after taking a small dose of wheatgrass extract daily, possibly by its 'normalisation' of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA).
More examples of wheatgrass extract healing
Effective closure of leprosy ulcers has defied "modern medicine" for many years. For example, all attempts at treating this patient's 8-year-old leprous ulcer, (Fig. 6.) failed completely. My wheatgrass extract then healed this patient's wound in five months. (View more cases.)
Next, in this psoriatic case (Fig. 8.) we see a different, but interesting response to the wheatgrass extract.
The patient's lesions have resisted many types of skin treatments, including 15 years of topical steroids that have severely thinned and damaged the skin's protective properties. After 2 months' treatment (twice monthly) with the wheatgrass extract, the lesions have darkened significantly, and enlarged, but this is not because the patient's skin has worsened. It seems the wheatgrass extract has "re-activated" cellular receptors around the affected areas by "notifying" the brain (via cellular receptors) that blood supply to the area is insufficient and slowing healing. The brain has then responded by restoring normal blood supply to affected areas. (The dark spots would likely be significantly larger, but it appears that this is because the skin has regained its normal blood circulation - thanks to the wheatgrass extract.)
I also think that the brown lesions would have faded in time as dysfunctional cellular receptors regained their functionality. On the right, it appears that the blood circulation to his dorsal skin has increased significantly, in which case, the darkened lesions would probably have disappeared had the treatment continued. It appears that after several years of darkened, degenerated skin lesions, we're actually seeing recovery.
In my many years' experience of using the wheatgrass extract therapeutically, for instance, healing topical steroid skin damage, (and many other conditions) treatment should be directed to re-connecting dysfunctional cellular receptors that have been destroyed or damaged by topical steroids, to the brain. This may take several months, but eventually the skin recovers.
Remember, "Less is best" when using wheatgrass extract
Using wheatgrass extract sparingly applies when treating all medical conditions and injuries - internally and externally. For example, in Figure 7, a supposedly "incurable" spider bite wound that defied all treatment for nine years, has healed completely, three months after commencement of wheatgrass extract application.
Also, the young woman in Figure 9 had suffered from psoriasis for three years, but topical steroids failed her. Then, once wheatgrass extract was applied once weekly, her skin recovered completely in four months. Compared with the patient in Figure 8, the remarkable response of this teenage girl's skin to wheatgrass extract is remarkable.
Last, but not least, most drug treatments for psoriasis (and eczema) such as topical steroids, should, in my view, be avoided. Although they may reduce inflammation, they do nothing to restore the skin's damaged structure and multiple dysfunctions. In fact, they do more damage and expose the skin to infection.
Wheatgrass extract removes psoriatic plaques, restoring skin almost to normal in 2 weeks
Just two weeks after wheatgrass extract was applied to the affected area, (Fig. 13.) there has been remarkable recovery of the patient's skin after two applications. The large areas of thick plaque have almost disappeared, revealing normal skin underneath. This suggests there has been a rapid "re-connection" (re-coupling) between the psoriatically damaged skin area and the brain which has then responded to help restore the patient's skin to normal. Also, in this case, the patient is young, which could also help expedite the healing process.
This case also suggests that psoriasis might develop due to dysfunction of cell receptors near the skin surface. This concept may also be the cause of other conditions such as skin disorders, hemorrhage, pain, itch etc. that often respond well to wheatgrass extract
