Dr. Hagiwara, Green Foods^™ Founder

"It was not until I turned to the words of Hippocrates and Shin Huang-ti with deep conviction that I began to recover from my illness. I dedicated the next 10 years to the pursuit of health in the pure natural products of God's own earth. My efforts focused on the juice of the green leaves of plants, of which the essense of young Green Barley leaves proved to be the most nutritious." - Dr. Yoshihide Hagiwara

Yoshihide Hagiwara, M.D., a world-renowned scientist, inventor, and entrepreneur, graduated from Kumamoto University in Japan as a research pharmacologist. Early in his career, Dr. Hagiwara developed several highly successful drug formulas, becoming the owner of a leading Japanese pharmaceutical company.

As Dr. Hagiwara grew aware of the problems caused by the many chemicals used in modern medicine, he vowed to devote his life to a natural nutritional approach to health. After years of research on over 200 types of plants, including fruits, vegetables, grasses, and herbs, he found that "young barley grass is one of the most nutritionally balanced foods in nature."

In order to capture and protect the delicate nutrients and enzymes in freshly harvested young barley grass, he developed a unique extraction and spray-dry process that earned him Japan's prestigious Science and Technology Award.
