About Barley
A traditional coarse grain with standout fiber among grains.
Health Benefits of Barley
Notable fiber content
100g of barley has about 9.9g fiber - very high among grains, far above rice (0.3g) and refined flour. Soluble fiber slows carb absorption, increases satiety and flattens the post-meal blood sugar impact.
A beta-glucan source
Like oats, barley contains beta-glucan, a soluble fiber linked to cardiovascular health. Barley tea is a traditional cooling beverage, and barley kernels can be boiled in porridge or added to brown-rice dishes.
