Guest guest Posted July 18, 2003 Report Share Posted July 18, 2003 From the book: The How to Herb Book: (Let's Remedy The Situation) by: Velma J. Keith and Monteen Gordon Chlorophyll (or green drink) = is 1 teaspoon of organic liquid chlorophyll in a glass of water taken daily. Chlorophyll is the " blood of plant life. " It is the life force of plants and contains life giving nutrients that are easily assimilated by the human body. It's molecular structure is very similar to the molecular structure of the human red blood cell-hemoglobin. It has the same effect as iron and is a natural blood builder. Nutrition and Digestion -helps to control and regulate calcium levels in the blood. Studies show menstrual blood has 40% more calcium in it than normal blood. Chlorophyll helps control this monthly loss of calcium. -aids in blood sugar problems. -lubricates ileocecal valve to keep it functioning properly. -increases iron in milk on nursing mothers -excellent to use in a cleansing diet because its fluids clean the structure of the cell and its important minerals build new cell life. It has been called " liquid sunshine " because it absorbs energy from the sun. Cleansing & Healing of Chlorophyll -a great natural healer and cleanser for chronic conditions internally and externally. -stops growth and development of toxic bacteria. Disease causing bacteria find it difficult to live in the presence of chlorophyll. Counteracts toxins. -accelerates tissue cell activity and normal re-growth of cells which helps the body heal faster. -has been used in salves and ointments for external use. -used as a gargle for tonsils -inhibits the metabolic action of carcinogens (cancer causing elements.) Purifying Qualities of Chlorophyll -helps purify the liver and eliminate drug deposits, old toxic material, chemical spray on food, artificial flavoring, colors and other coal tar products that may become stored in it. -helps to get bile moving regularly. -acts as a detergent in the body. -has been used to remove toxic metal from children. Bowel -deodorizes the bowel and entire body: a natural antiseptic to the intestinal tract. -goes unchanged until it reaches the small intestine. -aids in rebuilding damaged bowel tissue and helps to eliminate mucus. -reduces acid which produces putrefaction in bowel. -helps to keep colon healthy because it destroys toxic and disease causing bacteria. -one teaspoon of concentrated chlorophyll (liquid form) to 1 cup of water equals a glass of green drink. Because the information on chlorophyll is so abundant, it is difficult to condense it. However, one thing is clear, chlorophyll is so valuable to the body that green drinks or chlorophyll should be part of a daily regime. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Personal notes: ~A Chlorophyll has also been used to increase the milk supply in nursing women. Following birth if a hemorrhage has occurred, you can take 3 teaspoons chlorophyll daily for 6 weeks and up to 3 tablespoons daily for 6 weeks following a severe hemorrhage. This will build up our hemoglobin (iron in the blood) quickly. It can also be taken during the last 6 weeks of pregnancy to build up your hemoglobin for birth. Also if you find you need to increase your hemoglobin right at the end of your pregnancy (having less than 6 weeks to your EDD) this is still a great option, as it works fast to build up your iron stores.
