There's a big holistic cancer treatment center in Florida that recommends wheat grass juice to be drunk and given as enemas. They apparently have a high success rate of remission and even cures. I can't stand the taste of it so have not used it. Try looking up Ann Wigmore on the internet. She apparently cured herself of cancer by drinking wheatgrass juice.

Hi OnTheMend,
I am drinking wheat grass as much as possible so when you posted this question I became really concerned because my cancer is hormone receptive. I asked my research doctor ( I am in a diet study for ovarian cancer ) and she did much research and luckily the conclusion she came to is no. Wheat grass contains a ton of good isoflavones but luckily there is a difference between isoflavones and phytoestrogens. I understood the difference when she explained it but I'm sorry I can't remember it enough to explain it to you now. I am relieved at this answer and thank you for posing this question.

I am using Wheatgrass. Colon cancer runs in my family. Mainly I am taking it for the antioxidant properties. But, it does have a lot of other vitamins and nutrients. It's not easy for me to eat raw vegetables, but I do it sometimes. It's a good way to get a serving of veggies and I don't mind Wheatgrass juice.
