Barley grass contains one of the most balanced nutrient profile of all green plants - with an abundance of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, phyto-nutrients, amino acids, proteins, active enzymes, chlorophyll and a unique, powerful antioxidant: glycosylisovitexin.

High in nutrients cofactors, Barley Grass is considered a 'super food' and is said to be 'one of the most nutritionally balanced foods in nature'.

Uri International's BARLEY PURE contains 100% pure, highly concentrated barley grass juice powder in a sufficient quantity allowing you to experience the true benefits from Barley Grass.

BARLEY PURE provides the active compounds that our bodies use to help maintain optimal health.

Recommended Use: 1 Tbsp, 1-2 times daily in water or juice.

Ingredients:
A - Vitamin (Beta Carotene), Barley Grass (Organic), C - Vitamin (Ascobic Acid), Calcium, Carbohydrates, Chlorophyll, Iron, Magnesium, Potassium, Protein, Sodium

Barley Grass (Organic):
The health benefits of barley grass include increased energy levels, enhanced digestion and immunity, anti-inflammatory actions, antioxidant protection, and neutralization of pesticides and other toxins. Barley Grass contains more dietary fiber than bran and is a rich source of beta carotene, chlorophyll, iron, enzymes, vitamin C (seven times more than oranges) Vitamin B-12 (important for brain function), and 19 essential amino acids. It aids the body in DNA repair, helps improve stamina, and clarity of thought.

C - Vitamin (Ascobic Acid):
Vitamin C (as ascorbic acid) plays an important role in the maintenance of the connective tissue in skin, ligaments and bone. Vitamin C helps with the formation of collagen which acts as the glue in binding together the cells of connective tissue. Collagen is a protein component.

Calcium:
Calcium is the principle mineral in bones and teeth. Calcium is also necessary for normal blood clotting. Calcium is necessary for strong bones and teeth and is also critical for many enzyme reactions, cardiovascular health and nerve and muscle function.
A healthy diet and sufficient uptake of calcium may reduce the risk of osteoporosis later in life, espcially for teen and young adult women. Magnesium works with calcium to promote cardiovascular health.

Carbohydrates:
The primary function of carbohydrates is to provide energy for the body, especially the brain and the nervous system. The body breaks down starches and sugars into a substance called glucose, which is used for energy by the body

Chlorophyll:
Chlorophyll is an excellent blood detoxifer. Their molecules resemble hemoglobin, vitamin B-12, and glucose tolerance factor and can help the body synthesize these essential molecules.

Iron:
Iron is a mineral that combines with protein and copper to produce hemoglobin. It strengthens the immune system and is important for wound healing. Vitamin C plays a key role in the absorption of iron.
Iron is essential for health; it is present in every living cell of the human body. The body needs iron for energy metabolism, red blood cell development and healthy teeth, skin, nails and bones. Iron is especially important for the health of pregnant women and those of childbearing age. The body only absorbs about 10% of the iron in food.

Magnesium:
Magnesium is needed for muscle contraction, normal nerve transmissions, enzyme action, bone mineralization, healthy blood vessels and balanced blood pressure. It is important for the absorption and metabolism of carbohydrates, Vitamins B and C. It is also critical for proper cell function.

Potassium:
Potassium is an important electrolyte needed for the transmission of nerve impulses. It also maintains cell integrity and is needed for the contraction of muscles (including the heart).

Protein:
Protein is essential for building body tissue. Protein is used during periods of growth and development as well as to maintain and repair tissue. High quality protein is always important but particularly during periods of rapid growth and illness.

Sodium:
Sodium plays a major role in the maintenance of blood volume and blood pressure. It is also needed for nerve transmission and muscle contraction.
