See book keywords and concepts |  Flavone glucosides are endogenously synthesized in barley. Klein et al. (1996) suggested the existence of a proton antiporter in barley for the uptake of radiolabeled flavone glucosides in vitro. Many other secondary metabolites, such as coumaric acid glucosides, have been suggested to be imported into isolated vacuoles in a proton-dependent manner (Martinoia et al, 2000). However, proton-dependent transporter genes that import flavonoids into the vacuole have not been isolated from these species.

See article keywords and concepts |  The second ingredient on the bag is whole ground barley. Why is this the second ingredient, and what is the advantage of it?
Newman: When you're making a dry food, you need something to create a biscuit-type quality, so you can end up with the dry kibble. barley is a great grain that is easily broken down by dogs and cats. It provides a really nice nutty flavor in the food, which the dogs seem to prefer. It provides good fiber, and we also have oatmeal in our foods. The combination of the barley and the oatmeal helps maintain a really clean digestive tract. |

Deoxynivalenol (DON) also known as vomitoxin, is a common contaminate of wheat, barley, rye, and corn. Pets who eat grains contaminated with vomitoxin can have symptoms that include refusal to eat, vomiting, and diarrhea.
In 1995, Nature's Recipe recalled $20 million worth of its dog food because inspectors found vomitoxin in "wheat screenings" used in the pet food. |

CONSTIPATION AND COLON CANCER: Two rat studies showed promising results in treating vastly different illnesses. In one, constipated rats were fed barley, which increased bowel movements. In another, rats with colon cancer were fed varying high-fiber diets. |

See book keywords and concepts |  The word tisane is derived from the Greek ptisan, "crushed barley," and originally meant barley water. Later, tisane came to denote a noncaffeinated herbal tea, rather than a caffeine-containing tea. Some consider a tisane to be a tea made from fresh rather than dried plant material. In more recent years, tisane has come to mean a tea prepared from unfermented leaves, instead of the fermented leaves of black tea. However you choose to define it, a tisane is, indeed, an herbal infusion enjoyed for its therapeutic effects. |

Even strawberries are not harmless anymore; they can now have "undisclosed genes" in them, so you will never know what else you are getting when you treat yourself to this delicious fruit. Cheese contains genetically engineered bacterial rennet. Many brands of apple juice contain the silkworm gene, and grapes can contain a virus gene. Trout, salmon, catfish, bass and even shrimp, are also genetically "enriched. |

THE KEY TO LOWER HOMOCYSTEINE LEVELS
Homocysteine is an amino acid in the blood that at high levels may be related to a higher risk of coronary heart disease and stroke. | | Researchers have also observed a 21 percent decrease in total and low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or "bad") cholesterol in people eating lots of soluble fiber, such as that found in barley and oats. Levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL, or "good") cholesterol either increased or did not change.
Decrease your risk of stroke. A recent Harvard study linked a diet heavy on whole grain foods with a decreased risk of stroke in women. Many studies have looked at whole grains in combination with other healthful food choices and the reduction of stroke. | | V2 c whole cooked barley: 135 calories, 6.8 g fiber, 8% Daily Value for vitamin E, 7% B?10% B3, 6% B6, 8% magnesium, 33% selenium

HOW CHOLESTEROL-LOWERING FOODS WORK TOGETHER
The Portfolio of four cholesterol-lowering foods has been tested in several different studies at the Clinical Nutrition and Risk Factor Modification Center at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto and the University of Toronto using people with hyperlipidemia (the scientific name for high cholesterol and high triglyceride levels). | | Foods considered to be prebiotic include whole grains (like barley and oatmeal), legumes, many vegetables and fruits (including onions, dark leafy greens, berries, and bananas), ground flaxseed, and foods containing inulin (including some yogurts and nondairy frozen desserts).
Yogurt with active cultures helps stimulate the immune system. A healthy immune system can reduce your risk of various diseases such as cancer, infection, gastrointestinal disorders, and asthma. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Hordenin results from the germination of barley and is related to the well-known stimulants ephedrine and mescaline. It also has a strong diuretic effect, which causes frequent urination, especially during the night. To process one glass of beer, the body's cells have to supply at least three glasses of water. Hence beer can cause severe dehydration such as is typically found among heavy beer drinkers. When the beer drinker's body signals dehydration, he may be tempted to drink even more beer, which increases dehydration further. |

A Note on the Digestibility of Legumes, Grains and Seeds
Due to the large quantity of enzyme inhibitors and antinutritional compounds—antigrowth factors— in legumes, grains and seeds, there is a limit to how many of them humans and animals can eat without suffering gas-related digestive problems. |

See article keywords and concepts |  Wright: Well, it's the only green product out there that's made with organic barley versus wheat grass and alfalfa and things like that. So it's less reactive and it's a milder detox than you get in all the other greens products. And for anyone who's tried Miracle Greens, we're known for our taste. That's another good thing about the barley; it's got a better taste and is not as grassy as the alfalfa or the wheat.
Mike: I can vouch for the good taste. It's very nice, a little bit fruity and a little bit green.
Wright: Yes. Usually you mix it with either water or apple juice and water. |
