retains its germ, bran & endosperm, it is higher in protein, potassium and
calcium than pearled barley. *The endosperm has
a substance which inhibits cholesterol
formation. (All barley is milled to some degree to remove its 2
inedible husks.) Try it plain, combined with another grain, or cooked with extra
water to make a breakfast porridge. Expands 4 times its dry size. Reduce
cooking time to 60 minutes if soaked overnight. Contains small amounts of
gluten. Health benefits: strengthen the spleen-pancrea,
regulates the stomach and fortifies the intestines, builds blood and yin fluids,
promote duresis and benefits the gall bladder and nerves.
