BARLEYGREEN: WHY IT IS THE BEST

The cereal grasses--barley, wheat, oats, and rye-- have been a source of human nutrition for centuries. Great civilizations from the past depended on one or more of these grasses as a major part of their diets. These green grasses are in a class by themselves, offering a plant source that can support the nutritional needs of an animal from its birth to old age.

Until recently, however, we received nutrition from these plants in the form of grains. Before the plants undergo the reproductive cycle that creates the grains, they are in the grass stage, and these grasses contain about the same minerals and vitamins as dark green vegetables. When they are harvested at a young age, these grasses have a different chemical makeup than their adult counterparts. For example, wheat grass has 32 g of protein per 100 g, while wheat flour has only 13. Wheat grass has about 23,000 International Units of vitamin A per 100 g, while wheat flour has none. We can see then, that the young grasses—the young leaves offer us great nutrition.

One of the first products to take advantage of the nutrition in grasses is Barleygreen. Developed by Dr. Yoshihide Hagiwara from barley grass after a long search to find the best nutritional plant, Barleygreen captures the wide spectrum of nutrients found in the barley plant. These include many vitamins and minerals, plus live enzymes, alkalizing substances, chlorophyll, and amino acids. As Dr. Hagiwara has said, "It was clear to me, then, that the leaves of the cereal grasses provide the nearest thing this planet offers to the perfect food. For reasons of palatability, higher nutrient content, and favorable harvesting features, green barley stands out as the best among them." Since its introduction, thousands of people have discovered the power of this nutrition. Today, Barleygreen remains the best-selling green juice drink in the world."

Barleygreen offers a convenient and economical way to supplement the fruits and vegetables so often missing from our diets. Barleygreen is the only green juice product in the world backed by decades of product development, plus more than 25 years of university research into its effectiveness. Because of this research and the unique, patented process used to create Barleygreen, it has long been the industry leader, used by more people than all the other green juice products combined.

By simply mixing a teaspoon of Barleygreen in a glass of water or in your favorite juice, you can conveniently enjoy a nutritious "salad in a glass."
