The nourishing properties of barley grass

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - Numerous studies have proven that organic barley grass is the potent super food containing important vitamins, proteins and minerals that are essential for the human diet.

It has seven times more vitamin C than oranges, five times more iron than spinach and 10 times more calcium than milk. Young barley grass also has more than twice oxygen radical observance capacity (ORAC) or antioxidant value found in 200 grams each of prunes, raisins, kale, raw spinach and grapes combined. 

ORAC measures the ability of a plant to neutralize harmful free radicals that are the culprit in lifestyle and age-related diseases.

With these components, it’s not surprising that barley used by many as an excellent counter-measure against heart diseases, cancer and diabetes, while some use it to combat anemia, asthma, dysmenorrhea, goiter, migraine, osteoarthritis and other common illnesses.

In today’s lightning-quick lifestyles and chemical and preservative-based food, barley grass serves as the body’s balancing force against stress, fatigue and dreadful diseases. This trend is long foretold by the country’s top distributor of the finest barley powder from New Zealand: Santé International Inc.

“Health is wealth indeed. Thus, through our products, we want to help our consumers maintain their everyday strength, while they perform their roles for the long run,” says Jesus Joey Marcelo, chief executive officer of Santé International Inc.

Today’s barley authority offers five products that underwent a meticulous and patented manufacturing process – Santé Barley Pure New Zealand, Santé Pure Barley, Santé Choco Barley, Santé Barley Fusion, and Santé C’est Bon. But Marcelo discloses that the company will soon introduce new and exciting barley-based products that will surely benefit many.

To ensure product credibility and reliability, Santé uses only barley grass certified by BioGro New Zealand’s leading organic certifier. This assures users that Santé barley grass does not contain unsafe levels of heavy metal, herbicide and insecticide residues.

Santé products also contain no pork, lard or other elements of impurities defined under Islamic law so they are halal-certified.
