Product Description

Barley has dozens of uses, from making beer to making bread. However, there’s more to this plant than just the grain — it’s also a nutritious vegetable. 

Barley grass, sometimes called barley greens, comes from young barley plants that haven’t started making seeds. During this stage of the plant’s life, it’s full of nutrients that help it grow larger leaves and seeds.

Barley grass is rich in a variety of important nutrients.

Dried barley grass, in particular, is a great source of fiber, boasting nearly 3 grams per tablespoon (10 grams).

Plus, each serving of barley grass contains a good amount of vitamin A, a fat-soluble vitamin that regulates immune function, cell growth, and vision.(1)

It’s also high in vitamin C, which plays a central role in everything from skin health to wound healing to oral health.(1)

It provides vitamin K as well, an essential micronutrient that’s needed for blood clotting, bone formation, heart health, and more.(1)

Lastly, it’s rich in polyphenols and flavonoids. These compounds act as antioxidants to reduce oxidative stress and protect against chronic disease.(1)

Although more research is needed, some human and animal studies suggest that barley grass may promote weight loss, improve blood sugar levels, and support heart health.(2)

Enjoy barley grass powder by adding to your favorite and a variety of juices, smoothies, and shakes.

Barley grass is rich in amino acids, which are important building blocks for proteins in the body. The nine essential amino acids barley grass provides helps the body repair muscles, blood vessels, and even bone marrow.

Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Magnesium, Calcium, Phosphorus and Antioxidants

The essential amino acids in barley grass are complete, making it one of the most nutrient-dense foods in the world.
