i recall that she experimented with a lot of plants, including bamboo,
i
think.  and wheatgrass did the best.  i don't believe her methods were
very
rigorous, though.

it does give me pause that ann wigmore had her haircolor turn ungray
after
she adopted her wheatgrass diet.  on the other hand - i hate to speak
ill of
the dead, but - someone i know from the wheatgrass world says her mind
was
pretty gone before she died in a house fire.

i've been musing over fragments of information about eating grass &
leaves
lately, wondering if there isn't some kind of connecting thread.

1.  an obscure article ~20 years ago about feeding "leaf protein" to
the
starving in africa.  they were juicing tree leaves, and having good
success
with turning around the health of the starving with it.
2. greeks, romans, and persian soldiers all travelled with watercress
for
its anti-scurvy properties

3. the story in the bible about the insane Nebuchadnezzar eating grass
like
a cow, then having his understanding returned to him (Daniel 4:33)
4. starving russians during WWII being reduced to eating leaves,
surviving
starvation

i've wondered about how to experiment with leaf juice without doing
the
potentially destructive testing of feeding it to myself.

i have a bachelor's in zoology from the university of washington, but
sort
of choke on the whole experimenting on rats thing.
