    I try to eat a lot of broccoli and other vegetables, but it isn't always easy to get them fresh. Your recommendation on the Brassica tea was wonderful. I get the benefits of green tea & broccoli and it tastes great! Thank you.

    I don't think veggie prevents cancer. When I was first diagnosed with b cancer I couldn't believe that was happening to me. I always ate well, fresh vegetables at all times, no junk, ocasional alcohol, no cigarrettes, and I still HAD this thing. I am so glad it is over, and i am healthy now.

    Healing from Cancer. 12 years ago I was diagnosed with invasive stage 111 breast cancer that had spread massively from my breast to my lymph system, and was given only 6 months to live. I’m happy to say that today here I am alive and well to tell the story and inspire you that we really can get over anything in life and come out wiser, stronger human beings. As part of my healing strategy I eat vast amounts of vegetables, sprouts and the juice of wheat grass. it was a life changing journey and we really can turn the compost in to gold. There are treasures in there as strange as that seems, and its up to each one of us to find it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeJk20r5MlM I send you the utube details because I know how important it was for me when I was sick to see someone today well over cancer. and here in this non professional utube I am reading to an audience in Calfornia. I hope this inspires you to know that we really can get over anything in life and come out wiser deeper human beings. As for wheatgrass here are some of its wonderful healing properties. Wheatgrass juice is 70% chlorophyll. An ounce of Wheatgrass is equivalent to two and a half pounds of vegetables. Wheatgrass has 23 times the minerals and vitamins of vegetables. Wheatgrass helps keep hair from graying. Liquid chlorophyll neutralizes toxins and washes drug deposits from the body. Chlorophyll improves all blood sugar problems, helps purify the liver and enhance the capillaries. Chlorophyll is anti-bacterial and can be used inside and outside the body as a healer. It only takes ten minutes to digest Wheatgrass juice, which helps remove heavy meals. Science has proven that chlorophyll builds enzymes that restore the sex hormones. Wheatgrass has been found to have over 100 elements needed by man and woman. If grown in organic soil, it absorbs 92 of the known 102 minerals from the soil. Liquid chlorophyll gets into the tissues, to refines and regenerates them. Wheatgrass juice is high in enzymes and acts as a detergent in the body, which helps deodorize. It can also dissolve the scars that are formed in the lungs from breathing acid gasses. The effect of carbon monoxide is minimized since chlorophyll increases hemoglobin production. Wheatgrass juice contains calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, sodium and potassium. The Nutrition Chef® suggests that you have 4 ounces per week. For optimal health take Wheatgrass in the form of live juice. First time users should dilute fresh juice or water with Wheatgrass or consume liquids immediately after. I included the use of wheatgrass every morning and afternoon in my daily healing schedule and still drink it once a day. Be well and happy, with love Suzanna.
