MINERALS AND VITAMINS. Barley beans are rich in carbohydrates and minerals – magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, calcium. After studying them, scientists found that they contain almost all the biologically active nutrients the human body needs.
SEVERAL BENEFITS. The water in which barley (barley and pearl barley) is soaked is rich in gordecin, a natural antibiotic that treats fungal skin diseases. This water also improves digestion, tones, stimulates milk production in breastfeeding women and has a positive effect on the liver.
FIBRE SOURCE. Barley is high in fibre. Fibre supports the digestive system and helps regulate intestinal functions. The human intestine does not digest fibre, so it picks up food residues and other unnecessary substances as they travel through the gut and carries them out of the body.
A SATISFYING DIET. Thanks to their high fibre and carbohydrate content, barley groats provide a feeling of fullness for longer periods of time. For this reason, this cereal is highly recommended for people who tend to gain weight, or for people who want to control their weight.
UNIVERSAL TASTE. Barley sticks have a mild, natural flavour, making them very versatile. You can use them to make sweet and savoury porridges and to flavour and enrich salads. Add barley groats to your soup to give it a creamy texture (great for beetroot soup).
