Extraordinary fiber content
Fiber levels found in barley are extraordinarily high thanks to having the fiber nutrients present throughout the whole grain unlike most other grains in which fibers are only concentrated in the outer bran layer only. This rich fiber content makes barley recommended for regularity, lower cholesterol and for intestinal protection.

Barley a mine of nutrients
Barley is also very rich in nutrients such as molybdenum, magnesium, selenium, copper, Vitamin B1, chromium, phosphorus and niacin. This makes it especially beneficial for a wide array of illnesses such as Arthritis, cardiovascular risks, cholesterol and it also helps in the development and repair of body tissue.[1]

Barley the healthy grain
Vitamins C & E present in green barley are important antioxidants for human health.[2] Barley also has a high content of ferulic acid which can improve strength and increase lean muscle mass and acts as a strong membrane antioxidant.

Barley the choice of diabetic patients
Barley contains essential vitamins and minerals as well as being an excellent source of dietary fibre, particularly beta-gluten soluble fibre which makes it an excellent choice for those who are suffering from type 2 Diabetes or pre-diabetes.
