Barley Nutritional Facts

'A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates, a land of oil olives and honey.' - Deuteronomy 8:8

Barley has been known to give strength for thousands of years. Barley, in a proper diet, can help to improve potency, vigor and strength. Once upon a time, Roman gladiators ate barley before their fights. Barley was said to give the fighters a temporary boost of energy before the match. Even today in the middle east, Barley is known to lower the risk of heart disease. Perhaps Barley is so helpful because of the beta glucans within Barley, which makes it an excellent medicine for the heart.


Beta glucans are a soluble fiber. The fiber helps arteries by removing LDL chelesterol, which can block the arteries. A diet that includes Barley, three times a day has been known to lower blood chelesterol by 15% in medical studies.
