BARLEY GRASS PLUS

THE FACTS:

Barley Grass is a green grass - considered to be the most nutritional of the green grasses, a vegetation that can supply sole nutritional support to every individual. Before green grasses undergo the reproductive cycle that creates the grains, they are in the grass stage. These grasses contain approximately the same amount of vitamins and minerals as dark green vegetables. When grasses are harvested at a young age, they have a different chemical makeup from their adult counterparts.

Dr Yoshihide Hagiwara, after twenty years of intensive research said, "It is clear to me 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 favourable harvesting features, green barley stands out as the best among these".

COMPONENTS OF BARLEY GRASS

Enzymes, Vitamins and Minerals
It contains a multitude of the body's enzymes. Enzymes are the catalysts for the body's essential chemical reactions and are responsible for our digestive processes, for providing cellular energy, and for antioxidant effects. Despite their importance, most people do not get the enzymes they need. This is because heat destroys enzymes, and most of our foods, whether cooked at home or pre processed, are heated and the enzymes are destroyed. Through twenty years of research it has been found that there are many active enzymes in green barley.

Barley grass contains at least sixteen vitamins, twenty-three minerals, eighteen amino acids, natural chlorophyll and one of the most important aspects is that it contains live digestive enzymes.

Chlorophyll

Barley grass contains chlorophyll, which has been studied for its potential in stimulating tissue growth and red blood cells. Chlorophyll reduces absorption of three dietary carcinogens:

• Heterocyclic amines
  (found in cooked meats)
  
• Polycyclic hydrocarbons
  (found in smoked and barbecued foods)
  
• Aflatoxin
  (a mould on peanuts)

Chlorophyll combines with the carcinogens while they are still in the digestive tract, limiting their bioavailability. Chlorophyll has also been found to reduce faecal, urinary and body odour in older patients.

Alkalinity

Barley grass has a high alkalising effect, which helps reduce the acidity in our body fluids. Our cells cannot function adequately if the PH (which measures acidity and alkalinity) is not in a narrow range. Most processed food are acidic and when we consume too many of them, the acidity-alkalinity balance is upset. It has hypocholesteromic, anti-inflammatory and anti-ulcer properties. An antioxidant has been isolated and reported to have an equal or superior affect to that of Vitamin E.

ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS
Cold pressed and unrefined for maximum nutrition from organically grown flax seed.

OMEGA 6

Omega 6 is the only source of both Linolenic Acid and Gamma-Linolenic Acid. This essential oil helps your body to manufacture the beneficial prostaglandins. A fall in the level of Prostaglandin's will lead to:

- Increased blood clotting
- Elevated cholesterol levels in the blood
- Diabetic-like changes in insulin release
- Weakening of the immune system
- Susceptibility to depression
- Greater risk of inflammation
- Disruption in the transmittal of nerve impulses
- Deregulation of calcium ions in the blood
- Disruption of all types of cellular responses to stimuli

As a food supplement, Omega 6 appears to stimulate the production of T-Cells from the thymus as well as balance out the production of prostaglandin.

OMEGA 3

People victimised by Candidiasis cannot process essential fatty acids efficiently. It interferes with an enzymatic protein that is a vital processor of long-chain fatty acids which is important in:
- Maintaining membranes
- In conducting metabolism
- In producing local hormones called Prostaglandin's (Pgs).

Omega 3 Flax Oil is a rich source of essential fatty acids and is the most concentrated vegetable source of Omega 3 fatty acid found in nature.

This would provide 18% (EPA and Omega3) and 13% (EPO) of your Fatty acid needs daily.
