Description: Although mankind has used Barley grain for millennia, only in the early Twentieth Century did we discover the exceptional nutritional richness of its young, leafy growth (cotyledons). Abundant in chlorophyll, protein, vitamins and minerals, it is a superb, broad-spectrum food to support a healthy diet. A signature component of barley is the green pigment chlorophyll, which allows plants to convert light into energy via photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is high in Magnesium. Barley grass is rich in protein, which has 18 of the 22 amino acids - including all of the eight essential amino acids that the body can't make for itself. Barley grass is thus an excellent source of protein for vegans, who often lack it in their diets. The vitamin content of Barley grass is also significant. It provides 30 times more Vitamin B1 than cows' milk, plus Vitamin B2, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B9, Vitamin B12 and antioxidant Vitamin C. Barley grass is a natural source of minerals. As well as the Magnesium in its chlorophyll, it contains Calcium, Copper, Iron, Manganese, Phosphorus, and Potassium. These are all essential to our diets, and can be lacking in modern, processed foods.

Review: An excellent product, delivered in a timely fashion and packaged appropriately. Just a quick note, many people wonder why the prices fluctuate so greatly between different brands. This is because you get a variety from China and another from New Zealand and the one from the latter country is of a far superior quality so you are getting what you are paying for. Even though Barely grass is nutritious, the farming methods etc.. between the two make the New Zealand variety a better product. So always be sure to check where it comes from. This, along with their wheatgrass, has become the mainstay of my breakfasts in the morning (added to smoothies). Especially for my wife, who suffers from IBS and Gastro paresis, this form of highly nutritious plant foods in an easily digestible form has been invaluable as getting nutrition to digest and absorb is difficult in such cases. She also has some breathing and blood difficulties, and as has been discovered by science, Chlorophyll has become known as "green blood" due to it's striking similarity to our haemoglobin and it's ability to carry oxygen, and this has helped her immensely. The taste of course is not everyone's cup of tea, but this mixes in great with smoothies and things of the sort and the flavour is easily mitigated or disguised.

Review: This is a very interesting product full of hyper nutrients and enzymes. I have a long term digestive disorder and I am hoping the health benefits of this product will help. Do feel quite energized after taking 1/2 to 1 tsp per day.
