BURNS: Wheatgrass extract rapidly heals deep, second-degree burns

2nd-degree-burn

Case No. 1. This patient accidentally burned herself on a hot stove top. The original burn (at left) is quite deep, inflamed and open, making it prone to infection - a common complication of burns. After one week's daily treatment with wheatgrass extract, the wound has completely healed with new skin covering the area. This is unusual for burn wounds as they  often become infected and slow the healing process.

2nd degree burn wrist

Case No. 2. 

The second-degree burn on the wrist of this patient in India healed completely after 27 daily treatments with wheatgrass extract. The superficial scarring also healed quickly and completely.

To my knowledge, there is no pharmaceutical or other application that can so rapidly recover such wounds. Silver sulfadiazine is generally applied, but unlike wheatgrass extract, it does little if anything to relieve pain, prevent infection or accelerate healing.

In the early stage, the extract should be applied lightly over cleansed wounds on alternate days, then gradually reduce dosage until the wound is re-covered with new skin.
