What are its health benefits
The rich green goodness of young barleygrass leaf has long been recognised for its unique nutritional benefits. Research over the past 55 years has confirmed the value of cereal leaf as a complete food, available in a natural synergistic form that makes it an ideal dietary supplement for health and energy.
The 100% Australian Organic BARLEYGRASS is made entirely from leaf harvested when the barley plant is still at its grass-like growth stage, prior to stem elongation and subsequent seed head formation. At this stage the plants nutritional value reaches a peak for important dietary components such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids, chlorophyll and carotenes.
A strict harvesting schedule, fast, hygienic handling of the crop, a specially developed low temperature drying process and innovative milling technology ensures that the Australian Organic BARLEYGRASS retains the goodness and quality of the young fresh leaf.
Australian Organic BARLEYGRASS contains whole, young barleygrass leaf. It is NOT juiced and it has NO additives. Juicing eliminates the natural plant fibre and requires chemical additives to prevent deterioration and facilitate the drying process.
Australian Organic BARLEYGRASS has a unique smooth flavour. Rich in chlorophyll known for its ability to aid digestion and has a deodorising effect on the body.
A good source of vitamin E, an anti-oxidant to provide protection for cells against free radical damage, it is particularly important in protecting fats, cell membranes, DNA and enzymes against damage endured by today’s hectic lifestyles. Containing over 90 minerals vital for life, it is high in calcium for healthy bones and teeth, and rich in magnesium, potassium, manganese and phosphorus for a healthy heart, muscles, nervous system and blood vessels. Iron is also essential to combat fatigue and infection. Barleygrass leaf powder has a greater percentage of protein than eggs.
