After my second operation, I was once again taken a step back in my daily activities. When your health is not 100% you realize that without good health the rest is secondary. All you want then is to get back to your old self. Your health is far from self-evident and everything depends on how you feel. Since I have been confronted with the facts, I have tried to be more conscious about my health. Biotona is a brand that helps me very well with this, here you can read more about the Biotona products that I use. Recently, another product has been added, Biotona Barley Grass: the ultimate source of health!

Biotona Barley Grass 100% raw juice powder

Biotona Barley Grass 100% raw juice powder is a very healthy addition to my daily portion of vegetables. The juice of young, green barley grass shoots – also known as barley grass – is one of the richest sources of plant nutrients available and therefore super healthy! Biotona Organic Barley Grass Juice Powder Raw is a healthy addition to your daily diet.

Healthy diet

For a healthy diet, it is recommended, among other things, to eat fresh vegetables every day: about 250 to 300 grams per day. Vegetables are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, fiber and other plant nutrients that the body needs to function properly. The soluble fiber in vegetables keeps cholesterol levels low and the insoluble fiber is good for digestion. The chlorophyll content of green vegetables has a blood purifying and cleansing effect. However, research shows that most people don’t get around to eating their daily portion of fresh vegetables. This is where Biotona Organic Barley Grass Juice Powder Raw can offer a solution.

Self-healing ability

What makes barley grass juice so special? The beneficial properties of the green juice were discovered in 1969 by the Japanese pharmacologist Y. Hagiwara. He was diagnosed with a serious illness, which prompted him to look for the ultimate crop to stimulate the body’s self-healing capacity. After examining about 200 plants, he concluded that the juice of young barley grass is by far the richest source of nutrients. His discovery not only healed him, it also got him a foothold in America where barley grass juice powder became one of the first popular superfoods. Barley grass juice contains high concentrations of minerals, enzymes and vitamins, it is also rich in proteins and contains large amounts of chlorophyll. In addition to good health, all these substances promote the removal of accumulated waste from the body.

Powder of the green juice

The young shoots of barley are grass-like plants with deep roots that absorb many nutrients from the soil. Biotona uses barley grass that is grown in Utah (USA) on the extremely rich soil of a dried-up volcanic lake. Just before the grain formation, the nutrient content in the shoots is at the highest level and the shoots are harvested and pressed. The unique (EverRaw®) process from harvest to the green juice and then the powder takes about two hours during which the juice is not heated beyond body temperature, so that all vitamins, minerals and enzymes from the grass are preserved.

Juice vs Powder

Biotona Organic Barley Grass Juice Powder Raw is made from the dried juice of young barley grass shoots. This contains by far the most phytonutrients compared to dried grass powder. That is why grass powders are much lower in price and quality. Biotona Organic Barley Grass Juice Powder Raw contains high amounts of enzymes, essential amino acids, vitamins (A, B, C and E) and minerals (iron, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium), which is only a small part of all the phytonutrients working together!

Recipes

A shake or smoothie with Biotona Organic Barley Grass Juice Powder Raw or with a Biotona Bio Barley Grass Juice Powder Raw shot is ideal for an energy boost. Do not drink your barley grass smoothie right before or after a meal so that the body can fully absorb all the healthy substances. You can also add the powder to cold dishes such as pesto and dips or even use it in the soup (do not boil it). Also a super healthy green chia pudding is possible.
