Cataract Success Story with Wheatgrass

Jay (Boston) on 02/01/2026
5 out of 5 stars

Wheatgrass vs. cataracts - here are the details.

First I found and read the article below.

It was a canine study, but humans and dogs have many similarities. https://greenmedinfo.com/blog/wheatgrass-rapidly-reverses-cataracts-animal-model-closer-look-regenerative-bioch (The 2005 Italian study is linked below.) So I looked for the wheatgrass product with the best reviews, and I took (4) scoops a day, every day. After 4 months, I got an eye exam - success. On a scale from 1-10, an 8 and a 5 became a 2 and a 2. Opthalmologist said that the cataracts now had no real density. The wheatgrass taste is not bad, I just put it in a little water with a little pink salt. I like to take it between or before meals. Wheatgrass has many benefits. Even the gut bacteria benefit. So I still take the stuff, no plans to stop -A 2005 Italian study of 20kg canines found rapid and dramatic reduction of cataracts with oral consumption of wheatgrass powder: 25-40% reduction in a month.

Hi Peter,

The product I selected and faithfully use is Amazing Grass Organic Wheatgrass Powder in the 1.76 lb. size. I think that taking 4 scoops a day is important to succeed with cataracts. Watch also for gut health improvement, and remarkably, a return toward the hair color of youth. Both occurred in my case. Superfoods can provide multiple simultaneous benefits.

This is on Amazon for about $24. Sounds like a great investment.

Hi Jay,

Is there a scoop provided with the product? If not, how big of a scoop are you referring to? What is the length of time an individual needs to continue this remedy, forever or just until things clear up? How quickly did your sisuation improve? Are there any know side affects to the wheatgrass powder?

I just got my wheatgrass today per Jay's recommendation, and there is a scoop included. I had to dig for it though.

I also got thymus extract to go with it, as the dog study gave it to them as well.

Hi Jay,

In how many weeks did your original hair colour return?

Also, when you took the wheat grass powder before meals, how many minutes before a meal did you take it?

Like 30 minutes before first bite of the meal or right before/immediately the first bite of the meal?

Did you have vision problems before the wheat grass powder supplementation, like near or Farsightedness? If you did, did this improve after 4 months of wheat grass powder ingestion?

Thank you

Hi Daniel,

It's hard to know when the hair follicles shifted melanin production as it's a gradual process, and my subjective/random recognition took a while to happen. I'd look for that color revival certainly within 12 months. With short hair, faster notice. About 15 minutes before a meal roughly - it's the empty stomach that makes for more efficient absorption I believe. So between meals on an empty stomach should be fine, probably even better. The big vision improvement is a sharpness now, a new clarity.

Hi Abby,

Vera is right, scoop is provided with the product. Now as for how long it's necessary to continue, I'm unable to say. Wheatgrass offers so many other benefits I now see it as a part of my diet. Maybe a reduced maintenance dose in time, not sure. This product is field grown under the sun, not in indoor trays. Gut bacteria certainly seem to love it. Maybe it sweeps sticky debris from cells elsewhere in a similar fashion. It definitely can restore natural hair color. It's a wise use of money, I feel to consume superfoods, as this clearly is. I couldn't peg a particular time that cataracts began to fade, but within 4 months absolutely major improvement had undeniably taken place. The body takes time, but given what it needs, great repairs happen.

Hi Ruralady,

I so agree. Back in the day I lived on a farm Ann Wigmore of Hippocrates Health institute owned, and wheatgrass juice was recognized as very powerful and effective by people who used it very day. One scoop of this powder is the equivalent of 10 shots of tray grown wheatgrass. Not patentable, thus little known. Money is well spent on this to avoid eye surgery, and probably much more.

Jay,

Thank you so much for your post about Wheatgrass and Cataracts.

I received my wheatgrass today. I am excited to start.

Do you take all (4) scoops at the same time or space them over the day?

I'm going to start with (1) scoop for a couple of days and work up to (4) just to get my body acclimated to it.
