16 Liquid chlorophyll washes drug deposits from the body.
Your body does that on its own.
17 Chlorophyll neutralizes toxins in the body.
Your liver does that.
18 Chlorophyll helps purify the liver.
Watch for those words that allow them wiggle room. It "helps" purify the liver? How does it "help"? On its own, will it purify the liver? Probably not, or they wouldn't have avoided saying it. Chances are, it doesn't do anything for your liver.
19 Chlorophyll improves blood sugar problems.
Improves them how? Does it raise your blood sugar or lower it? I'm pretty sure it has to do one or the other and can't do both.
20 In the American Journal of Surgery (1940), Benjamin Gruskin, M.D. recommends chlorophyll for its antiseptic benefits. The article suggests the following clinical uses for chlorophyll: to clear up foul smelling odors, neutralize Strep infections, heal wounds, hasten skin grafting, cure chronic sinusitis, overcome chronic inner-ear inflammation and infection, reduce varicose veins and heal leg ulcers, eliminate impetigo and other scabby eruptions, heal rectal sores, successfully treat inflammation of the uterine cervix, get rid of parasitic vaginal infections, reduce typhoid fever, and cure advanced pyorrhea in many cases.
Wow, that's a big one. Let's see what we can find about it. Here is a Time Magazine article about this research in which we learn that:
Dr. Gruskin is not sure how chlorophyll works.
Maybe it's a good idea to ask why they're quoting an incomplete study from 1940. Surely a more complete, recent study proved the results more effectively.
Or maybe not.
Wait, parasitic vaginal infections?! Holy crap! Seriously, I don't know how you women live with those things, but you're doing a yeoman's work.

That sounds like a label from a bottle of 1890s cure everything juice.
Parasitic vaginal infections = active labor that goes on for about 3 hours. Oh, wait, that might be more than you really wanted to know about me. ;)
Q told me to read this blog for the humor - thank you so much!! I needed to laugh! It's amazing what people will believe, and it's always nice to read a well written commentary about the stupidity of others. I loved Q's response to the christian comment on one of your posts; the sad thing is that person probably doesn't even get the humor!
