With wheatgrass, organic agriculture, and holistic therapy as its cornerstones, Li presents her vision of the ideal healing institution, at once utopian and practical, as the foundation for developing an actual health and healing center.    Excerpt Chlorophyll constitutes 70% of the soulte in wheatgrass and has been extensively tested for its extraordinary healing powers. This green 'life blood' of the plant draws its energy from the light of the sun and has the ability to infuse our bloodstream with healing and regeneration. Light particles transfer energy during the process of photosynthesis. Sun-rays filter through the tissues of the plant and release their photons which are gradually absorbed and stored within the atoms of the plant. Drinking freshly expressed wheatgrass juice may be our link to this primary energy source - an infusion of sun-energy may be the reason for the light "sparkling" snesation so often reported by many individuals using wheatgrass.
