Nutrition and Health

Unlike many nutritional supplements, BarleyGreen is a whole food product. It is made from fresh barley grass, a food staple in most cultures throughout history. In fact, this green food is quite similar to wheat grass. An additional benefit of BarleyGreen is that it is certified organic, so you can trust its nutritional purity.

There is more good news. Although BarleyGreen is a powerful natural supplement, it does not interfere with daily multivitamins. The natural enzymes and phytochemicals in BarleyGreen, actually, can help your body assimilate multivitamins.

Nutritional Properties of BarleyGreen

BarleyGreen is not made from just any barley grass. The plant is harvested during its peak nutritional. When barley leaves are roughly one foot high, they are loaded with proteins, chlorophyll, vitamins and minerals. This guarantees you receive the maximum easily absorbed nutritional benefits.

So just what nutrients are found in BarleyGreen? Every serving supplies the following vitamins and minerals :

• potassium
• calcium
• magnesium
• iron
• copper
• phosphorus
• manganese
• zinc
• beta carotene
• Vitamin B1
• Vitamin B2
• Vitamin B6
• Vitamin C
• folic acid
• pantothenic acid

How does this nutritional supplement stack up against other foods? Comparatively, BarleyGreen outperforms many foods. It has 11 times the calcium of cow's milk, 5 times the iron of spinach, and 7 times the Vitamin C of oranges.

The benefits of BarleyGreen are not limited the amounts of critical nutrients either. Because it is nutritionally diverse, BarleyGreen supplies a range of vitally important nutrients that work synergistically. This means the nutrient combination compliment each other, and are more effective in your body.

Health Benefits of BarleyGreen

Clearly, BarleyGreen is a natural supplement powerhouse, but just how can it improve your health and nutrition? The antioxidants of this nutritional mixture actually nourish your immune system, for starters. A stronger immune system naturally increases resistance to disease. BarleyGreen also detoxifies your system, and helps reduce the effects of aging.

Further, BarleyGreen includes the nutritional benefits of kelp. Kelp has been proven to benefit brain and spinal cord function, as well as circulation. Kelp's iodine content may help normalize thyroid function.

BarleyGreen is also loaded with natural enzymes. These effect everything from regulating hormone production to digestion. Processing and cooking destroy enzymes, so most foods we consume lack active enzymes. BarleyGreen's enzymes, on the other hand, are protected by processing temperatures that never exceed body heat.

BarleyGreen, lastly, supplies a significant amount of chlorophyll, a natural detoxifier. Detoxifiers leach stored toxins into your body's fluid stores (blood, urine, perspiration, etc). Over time, poisons are flushed from your system, leaving you looking and feeling great!

Special Health Considerations

Since BarleyGreen is a natural, organic whole food product, it is suitable for just about any dietary need. It contains no caffeine, simple sugars or sweeteners, or gluten. BarleyGreen is safe for those with diabetes and food allergies, as a result. Because it supplies all the nutrients of a whole salad of dark green vegetables, it is also a healthful supplement for pregnant women.

It is also a helpful supplement to any weight loss program. BarleyGreen has only 20 calories, yet offers a wide range of beneficial nutrients. Although it is a nutritional supplement, BarleyGreen is not a meal replacement.

If acid reflux is an issue, BarleyGreen is still appropriate. It is mildly alkaline, in contrast to stomach acids, and can aid settling the stomach.

Adding BarleyGreen to Your Diet

BarleyGreen is available in both powder and tablet form, each with a 3 year shelf life. The only difference between the two is that the powder is instantly soluble, and assimilated by your body more rapidly.

BarleyGreen can be taken anytime, but to maximize absorption, either 20 minutes before a mean or 2 hours afterwards is best. Use either cold or room temperature liquids to take BarleyGreen to preserve its nutrient-rich properties.
