Benefits See the benefits of this product
Barley is a particularly rich source of fibre, molybdenum, manganese and selenium. It contains good amounts of copper, vitamin B1, chromium, phosphorus, magnesium and niacin. Barley’s high fibre content helps food move through your gut and promotes a good balance of gut bacteria, both of which play important roles in indigestion.
