EQUINE (horse) WOUNDS heal rapidly after application of wheatgrass extract

Case No. 1. Healing of large horse wound by wheatgrass extract

This horse suffered a large full thickness wound when it ran into a wire fence. However, it can be seen there was significant healing in just 7 weeks after wheatgrass extract applied to the wound just twice weekly. (Note the absence of infection at any stage.)

Note that at 7 weeks, the animal's hair has completely recovered over the injured area with no sign of scarring which is unusual.

This large open wound heals rapidly after application of wheatgrass extract. Note the absence of infection by flies etc. because wheatgrass "seals" the wound surface which prevents wound infection.  Also, note the complete recovery of hair to the wound edge as it reduces in size.

Note also, the significant healing of the wound with no infection visible at 3 weeks and hair regrowth with wound shrinkage at 7 weeks.  By 13 weeks, the wound has completely healed as seen in these 2 photographs.

Case No. 2. Healing of multiple infected horse wounds with wheatgrass extract

I received the following message from the owner of a horse “hospital” in Mexico:

”Today we rescued a 5 month old colt who had been attacked by dogs a few days ago. He had large infected wounds on both sides of his face and on his left front leg. The injury on the leg was so swollen that he couldn’t bend the knee joint. Anything white you see in the photos is a maggot or worm. When the wounds were sprayed post debridement with ether and iodine, thin white worms were crawling out of everywhere! He’s getting penicillin, an oral paste for inflammation and pain, and daily wound cleaning with hydrogen peroxide and iodine. The wound is packed daily with an antibiotic ointment.”

Rather amazed at how difficult it seemed to heal horse wounds, I sent them wheatgrass extract spray. I instructed them to apply the spray once daily and not use dressings. View how effectively, and rapidly, wheatgrass did a great healing job:

Day 21. Wound is one quarter original size. Surface clean and dry.
large full thickness wound on horse's jaw healed completely in 7 weeks
Day 49. Wound completely healed. Scarring minimal.

Inside left front leg

DAY 1. Maggot infested wound. Pre-wheatgrass.

2 WEEKS. Wound completely debrided and filled with healthy, revitalised tissue.

4 WEEKS. Wound markedly contracted. New hair growth covers what would normally be scar tissue.
large horse leg wound almost completely healed by wheatgrass extract
9 WEEKS. Wound almost healed. Hair regrown. Minimal scarring.

It is important to note that wheatgrass also heals human wounds e.g. burns, injuries, and effectively prevents infection and antibiotics are rarely required.
