What is Barley Grass?

Barley Grass (Hordeum vulgare) is the leaf of the barley plant, as opposed to the grain.  It is capable of growing in a wide range of climatic conditions.  Barley Grass has greater nutritional value if harvested at a young age.

Barley Grass has been traditionally used for its alkalising and antioxidant properties.  It boasts a wide range of nutritional properties, providing chlorophyll, protein, minerals, vitamins, and enzymes.

Barley Grass comes from young barley plants that haven’t started making seeds.  During this stage of the plant’s life, it’s full of nutrients that help it grow larger leaves and seeds.  

Barley Grass is a popular ingredient at juice bars, where it’s added to juices and smoothies in a powder form.  It can also be turned into a bright green juice without other ingredients.  Either way, the nutritional benefits of Barley Grass are impressive.

When pure Barley Grass is harvested, the seed (or grain) is not present in the final product.  The Barley Grass leaves are young and green hence why it does not contain Gluten making this a great product for those trying to avoid gluten.

Use & Benefits:

Barley Grass offers a variety of health benefits because of the minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants it contains.  For example, it has a lot of magnesium, which is the fourth-most-common mineral in your body.  Magnesium is a key part of more than three hundred enzyme reactions, making it essential to your health.  Magnesium is particularly important for energy production and glucose control.

Antioxidant-Rich

Barley Grass is rich in vitamins A and C, which act as antioxidants.  These vitamins help fight off free radicals that can damage your body.  They help carry free radicals out of the body and lower your health risk.

Better Digestion

Barley Grass is a great source of dietary fibre.  The soluble and insoluble fibre that Barley Grass provides digestion help in two ways:  First, insoluble fibre feeds the “good bacteria” living in your gut, helping you digest food efficiently and keeping your intestines healthy.  Second, soluble dietary fibre helps your stomach absorb sugar more slowly, keeping your blood sugar and cholesterol levels lower.

Bone Health

Calcium is the main building block of bones, and having a good source of calcium in your diet is vital for bone health. The calcium found in Barley Grass can help prevent or reverse osteoporosis.  It can also help keep your teeth healthy, especially when combined with the phosphorus that’s also found in Barley Grass.
