Ann Wigmore revived the interest in wheat grass in the 60’s by treating herself when her doctors told her she would not live. After an automobile accident that shattered both her legs, Ann was advised to amputate her legs in order to cut out the disease. She refused and gangrene set in. She did not give up and set out on a “peasant’s diet”, which consisted of wheat grass, vegetables, and grains that ultimately restored her health. Ann dedicated her life to administering wheat grass to the sick and created the Hippocrates Health Institute which to this day carries out her work.

Dr. Ann Wigmore learned as child the art of natural healing from her grandmother. Following the war her family left Europe and emigrated to the United States. After years of struggles with colitis, headaches, arthritis, a host of other health challenges, and namely the accident, the young Ann Wigmore returned to her native teachings and began a regimen of live foods using primarily sprouts and wheatgrass juice to rejuvenate initially her pets and then herself. She experienced an incredible rejuvenation on a diet of living foods. Her hair returned from an almost full graying condition to its natural color. Her vitality soared. So began a live-food crusade which led to the founding of the Hippocrates Institute in Boston in 1963 which successfully treated tens of thousands of patients over a period of several decades.

Dr. Ann Wigmore might be more aptly titled a healer, instead of a doctor, because she healed people and will be remembered forever for the legacy she left humankind. Though Ann died tragically and suddenly in a fire in a fire while writing her book at the age of 83, in 1993, her live-food crusade continues on, unabated.

In Ann’s own words:

"Reconnect with nature and your body will take care of the rest. This is the beauty of self-healing."

"Through the American eating habits I developed cancer of the colon, arthritis, hernia, migraine headaches, blood poisoning, depression and gray hair by the time I was fifty…. I knew the only thing to do was turn back to nature…. So gradually I developed the Living Foods Lifestyle and returned to nature. It took me about three years to regain my health. Today I have improved the Living Food Lifestyle which means being able to regain health in only several months rather than several years... “


”Because of wheatgrass implants, my brain has improved and stress has been eliminated. I have tremendous brain force now. My writing is improving each year. When the body is healthy, the brain is healthy too because the brain is the same as any other part of the body.”

Ann healed her own body from various illnesses including colon cancer while in her fifties, using Raw Living Foods.

For thirteen years Dr. Ann visited Creative Health every summer blessing us with her natural healing truths. Dr. Ann died at the age of 83 in a fire. A video taken of her three months before her death shows a woman in her eighties moving about like a young woman--limber, energetic, and intellectually sharp. Her doctors were amazed. At the age of 83, she was as fit as a 30 year old. It’s sad that she died for she would have been “living” proof of the power in Nature (wheatgrass and sprouts), of the simple diet of raw foods in its natural state.

Through years of research Dr. Ann Wigmore discovered that all the enzymes, vitamins and minerals that the body needs are found within the foods we eat -- IF these foods are prepared in such a way as to maintain or unlock their life-giving nutrients.

Wheatgrass contains all vitamins necessary for the normal function of the human body such as riboflavin, vitamin C, B complex, and all of the 100 elements which the balanced earth contains; turning the body from an acidic state into an alkaline state.

By cooking and killing your foods, you cook and kill your bodies.


Living foods for our Living temple: (our sacred bodies)

Understand the full meaning of the Tree of Life*

Wheat grass is considered to be a complete food, meaning it has life sustaining properties. It is a source of beta-carotene and the B vitamins, plus vitamins C, E, H and K. It also contains close to ninety different minerals and nineteen amino acids. Wheat grass caters to blood purification, liver detoxification, and colon cleansing. It is also an excellent source of superoxide dismutase (SOD), which is a powerful antioxidant and anti-aging enzyme.

A 1978 study by Yoshihide Hagiwara, M.D., suggests that wheat grass has the ability to inactivate mutagenic substances found in agricultural chemicals, fertilizers, and food additives. In other words, wheat grass may combat the damaging effects of chemicals, fertilizers, and food additives that are ever increasing their visibility in our food and drinking water. As it is now, most foods contain one type or another form of food additives. Fertilizers have been showing up around the world in drinking water. One recent study in California, USA even showed evidence of rocket fuel in cows’ milk.


It must also be said that wheat grass is high in chlorophyll, which is the closest to the molecular structure of human blood on the planet as you can get. The body converts chlorophyll into fresh blood, thus leaving the body more rejuvenated. Due to its concentrated form of chlorophyll, wheat grass has also been known to have favorable effects on treating chronic pancreatitis.

In addition, chlorophyll combats bacteria inside the body and supports healing, rebuilds the bloodstream, removes drug deposits from the body, neutralizes toxins in the body, purifies the liver, improves blood sugar problems, and can cure chronic sinusitis with long term use.

Wheat grass has been known to help prevent tooth decay, skin problems such as eczema and psoriasis. It is also claimed to reduce hair from graying, improves digestion, reduces high blood pressure as it enhances the capillaries, and can remove heavy metals from the body.

Living food is provided by nature, organically grown in its original, uncooked state. Live foods provide the body with the life-giving, easy-to-digest nourishment needed to strengthen the immune system. Seeds, grains, nuts, fruits and vegetables in their natural, uncooked state are the living food used to rebuild health - physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Wheat grass juice is an excellent source of chlorophyll. Wheat grass juice is also high in iron, oxygen, and enzymes and is one of the richest sources of vitamins A, B, and C.

Studies of wheatgrass by Dr. Chiu Nan Lai of the University of Texas System Cancer Center showed it to be a potent inhibitor of several carcinogens. Applying low levels of the extract to mutagens diminished activity in them by up to 99%. Recent medical research has found that cancer goes into remission when the body is alkaline. The raw living foods diet helps to make the body alkaline (easily tested with litmus paper).

More research has examined the healing properties of chlorophyll in general and seems to be related to the fact that the chlorophyll molecule is nearly identical to that of hemoglobin, whose single atom of iron replaces one atom of magnesium.

Distinguished medical specialists have reported hundreds of cases in which chlorophyll has cured deep infections, stimulated healing, removed necrotic debris from open wounds, and accelerated connective tissue and epidermal proliferation.

Here are some beautiful scriptures that were founded in the archives of the Vatican by Edmond Bordeaux Szekely (whose father worked for the Vatican). But unfortunately the Chruch Fathers LEFT OUT most of the needed messages for mankind, out of the bible. Jesus, a powerful healer (as I had always known because I dreamt of him this way when I was a child) was a deep believer in the power of Mother Earth.



“…And then many sick and maimed came to Jesus, asking him. "if you know all things, tell us, why do we suffer with these grievous plagues? Why are we not whole like other men? Master, heal us, that we too may be made strong, and need abide no longer in our misery. We know that you have it in your power to heal all manner of disease. Free us from Satan and from all his great afflictions. Master, have compassion on us."

“And Jesus answered- "Happy are you that you hunger for the truth, for I will satisfy you with the bread of wisdom. Happy are you, that you knock, for I will open to you the door of life. Happy are you, that you would cast off the power of Satan, for I will lead you into the kingdom of our Mother's angels, where the power of Satan cannot enter."

“And they asked him in amazement: "Who is our Mother and which her angels? And where is her kingdom?"

"Your Mother is in you, and you in her. She bore you she gives you life. it was she who gave to you your body, and to her shall you one day give it back again. Happy are you when you come to know her and her kingdom; if you receive your Mother's angels and if you do her laws. I tell you truly, he who does these things shall never see disease. For the power of our Mother is above all. And it destroys Satan and his kingdom, and has rule over all your bodies and all living things.

"The blood which runs in us is born of the blood of our Earthly Mother. Her blood falls from the clouds; leaps from the womb of the earth; babbles in the brooks of the mountains; flows wide in the rivers of the plains; sleeps in the lakes; rages mightily in tempestuous seas.

"The air which we breathe is born of the breath of our Earthly Mother. Her breath is azure in the heights of t heavens; soughs in the tops of the mountains; whispers the leaves of the forest; billows over the cornfields; slumbers in the deep valleys, burns hot in the desert.

"The hardness of our bones is born of the bones of our Earthly Mother, of the rocks and of the stones. They stand naked to the heavens on the tops of mountains; are as giants that lie sleeping on the sides of the mountains, as idols set in the desert, and are hidden in the deepness of the earth.

"The tenderness of our flesh is born of the flesh of our Earthly Mother; whose flesh waxes yellow and red in the fruits of the trees, and nurtures us in the furrows of the fields.

"Our bowels are born of the bowels of our Earthly Mother, and are hid from our eyes, like the invisible depths of the earth.

"The light of our eyes, the hearing of our ears, both are born of the colors and the sounds of our Earthly Mother; which enclose us about, as the waves of the sea a fish, as the eddying air a bird.

"I tell you in very truth, Man is the Son of the Earthly Mother, and from her did the Son of Man receive his whole body, even as the body of the newborn babe is born of the womb of his mother. I tell you truly, you are one with the Earthly Mother; she is in you, and you in her. Of her were you born, in her do you live, and to her shall you return again. Keep, therefore, her laws, for none can live long, neither be happy, but he who honors his Earthly Mother and does her laws. For your breath is her breath; your blood her blood; your bone her bone; your flesh her flesh; your bowels her bowels; your eyes and your ears are her eyes and her ears.

"I tell you truly, should you fail to keep but one only of all these laws, should you harm but one only of all your body's members, you shall be utterly lost in your grievous sickness, and there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. I tell you, unless you follow the laws of your Mother, you can in no wise escape death. And he who clings to the laws of his Mother, to him shall his Mother cling also. She shall heal all his plagues, and he shall never become sick. She gives him long life, and protects him from all afflictions; from fire, from water, from the bite of venomous serpents. For your Mother bore you, keeps life within you. She has given you her body, and none but she heals you. Happy is he who loves his Mother and lies quietly in her bosom. For your Mother loves you, even when you turn away from her. And how much more shall she love you, if you turn to her again? I tell you truly, very great is her love, greater than the greatest of mountains, deeper than the deepest seas. And those who love their Mother, she never deserts them. As the hen protects her chickens, as the lioness her cubs, as the mother her newborn babe, so does the Earthly Mother protect the Son of Man from all danger and from all evils.


"...many unclean and sick followed Jesus' words, and sought the banks of the murmuring streams. They put off their shoes and their clothing, they fasted, and they gave up their bodies to the angels of air, water, and sunshine. And the Earthly Mother's angels embraced them, possessing their bodies both inwards and outwards. And all of them saw all evils, sins and uncleanesses depart in haste from them. ... And the breath of some became as stinking as that which is loosed from the bowels, and some had an issue of spittle, and evil smelling and unclean vomit rose from their inward parts. All these uncleanesses flowed by their mouths. In some, by the nose; in others, by the eyes and ears. And many did have a noisome and abominable sweat come from all their body, over all their skin. And on many limbs great hot boils broke forth, from which came out uncleannesses with an evil smell, and urine flowed abundantly from their body; and in many their urine was all but dried up and became thick as the honey of bees; that of others was almost red or black, and almost as hard as the sand of rivers. And many belched stinking gases from their bowels, like the breath of devils. And their stench became so great that none could bear it." (Quote from the Essene Gospel of Peace).
