Barley Grass

Botanical name: Hordeum Vulgare

Barley kernels produce a broad blade grass with a light green colour. It is reported to be a great free radical scavenger which may help to reduce pain and inflammation. It is extremely nutritious in the form of raw juice, however a special juicer is required for this. The juice has a very potent flavour, so adding fruit or vegetable juice will make it more enjoyable.

The appeal of Barley grass is that it is a richer in individual vitamins and enzymes than many other known super-foods.

Barley grass has been claimed to offer more protein than a sirloin steak, five times the amount of iron as broccoli, seven times more vitamin C than orange juice and 11 times more calcium than milk. The real benefit and power of Barley grass is the combination of all these nutrients and enzymes in one food.
