The Benefits of Barley
Barley grass is so packed with nutrients that it can supply complete nutritional support. Barley juice powder boosts good health by providing:
- Chlorophyll
- Antioxidant enzymes (particularly superoxide dismutase (SOD) and nitrogen reductase)
- Antioxidant bioflavonoids (particularly C-glycosylflavones, saponarin and lutonarin)
- Eight essential amino acids (making it a rich source of protein, with 15 times more protein than milk)
- Minerals (including iron, copper magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, and potassium)
- Vitamins (including folic acid, beta-Carotene, B1, B2, B6, B12, C, pantothenic acid, and lutein)
With so many nutrients, barley offers extensive health benefits. These are just 6 of many.
- It fills nutritional gaps. Barley grass is so packed with nutrients and minerals that consumers can rely on it to fill any nutritional gaps in their diets. Vegas and vegetarians, especially, may find it hard to get all the nutrition they need by eating only plant-based foods. But because barley grass is nutritionally complete, it’s a great dietary supplement.
- Boosts immunity. Vitamins B6, B12, and C; as well as iron, folic acid, and copper are all essential to maintaining hemoglobin levels and forming red blood cells. These nutrients and vitamins are found in abundance in barley grass. Barley grass have five times more iron than spinach, and iron improves blood volume and prevents fatigue and anemia. Vitamin C helps improve the body’s resistance to infection and disease. Further, barley grass proteins are easily absorbed polypeptides, and once in the blood, promotes cell metabolism and neutralizes free radicals.
- It can aid in weight loss. Being overweight or obese increases your risk of getting heart diseases, diabetes, cancer, and other health issues. Barley grass will not only help you lose weight, but also help prevent these problems. Being a rich source of insoluble fiber, barley grass makes you feel full for a long time, all while providing you with the essential vitamins and minerals that your body needs. Plus, since it also helps control blood sugar levels, you won’t have strong cravings between meals. By using barley grass – provided that you also engage in exercise and eat a healthy diet – you’ll be able to lose weight in a healthy manner.
- Improves bone health. Containing 11 times more calcium than milk, barley grass juice is a great source of this mineral, particularly for people who don’t eat dairy products. Its store of manganese can also improve normal bone production.
- Aids in managing the symptoms of some chronic diseases. Loaded with bioactive compounds like bioflavonoids and superoxide dismutase, barley grass scavenges free radicals in the body. This may play a crucial role in reducing inflammation in chronic diseases, such as gout, arthritis, and rheumatoid synovitis.
- Improves skin health and elasticity. Is your skin losing its luster and elasticity? Being a source of selenium, barley grass can significantly improve the overall health and elasticity of your skin. Barley grass benefits your skin’s elasticity, which prevents further harmful issues such as developing folds of loose skin. Moreover, it protects the skin from damage done by external factors, such as cold air, wind and harmful UV rays. Smog and exhaust fumes are some common factors that damage the skin, so if you live in a city, barley grass will help keep your skin youthful and healthy. Further, the other nutrients in barley grass, such as vitamin B, iron and chlorophyll also improve skin quality.
