Erna Marie, visiting from Germany, with frustration pulled loaf after loaf off the grocery shelf. Throwing every loaf back, she exclamed "What is this? This is not leibenschmittel." I asked her, "What is leibenschmittel?" She replied, "Leiben means LIFE, schmittel means SUBSTANCE. Leiben schmittel means lifesubstance. It is our word for food. THERE IS NO FOOD IN THIS STORE."

Most of Earth’s population is malnourished.

Devitalized foods fill out grocery shelves. Mass scale farming has reduced our food suppy to a nutritionally pathgetic and toxic state. “Civilized” nations are fattening on empty calories, hoping that man made chemical vitamins can replace the complex living compounds that our bodies were designed to use.

The replacement plan is not working. We hear it more and more every day. Nearly every ailment that we suffer is brought on by, aggravated by, or unable to heal due to diet lacking in amino acids, minerals, enzymes or other complex compounds. Our bodies need an unfathomable array of natural building blocks. The body will manufacture everything it needs, given a wide variety of these natural and living substances. “Helping hands” nations send tons of grain and flour products (starch) to the under nourished who really need the proteins, vitamins and enzymes that can be had from the wheatgrass that is easily grown from the same pennies worth of grain.

We have the information to create this nutrition. In the miracle of wheatgrass, the starches in the seed are converted to a full array of protein building aminos, energizing sugars, a couldron of enzymes and a full array of other nutrients and vitamins. The tiny seed is quickly converted to a laboratory, factory, warehouse and power plant of cleansing and wide spectrum nutrition.

In the 1940’s and early 50’s scientific nutritional research was just beginning. Of course, increased profits from livestock was the motive, but the implications for humans from the studies on the young cereal grasses were astounding. Dried wheatgrass became the first vitamin (vita: living, min: amino) food. The future looked bright for an under fed and malnourished humanity. Then along came “better living through chemistry” and a well meaning but misled industry gave us “Geritol” and “One A Day” pills to deliver us from the pesky chores of good food production.

The test of time has brought us full circle back to the unavoidable need for nature’s pure organic supply…… but it’s getting harder and harder to find and afford.

The world is in a crisis. Food content is pathetic, social strife threatens supplies and we are urged to stockpile for emergencies.

Wheatgrasss is cheap and easy to grow. In good times and bad, from a bucket of grain in the closet, in 10 to 14 days, wheatgrass is the ultimate indoor homegrown superfood. Sixteen ounces of wheat will grow up to 20+ ounces of power packed wheatgrass juice. That’s a remarkable 20 doses (10 double doses) of pure living energy building blocks for under $1.
