Barley Grass
For Longevity And Well Being

Barley grass is one of the essential superfoods in my Four Step Natural Cure Plan

Free radicals are compounds that are unstable because they contain an unbalanced number of electrons. They regain their balance by stealing electrons from surrounding compounds thereby unbalancing the “donor” compounds so they too become free radicals.

This sets in motion a chain reaction that can cause serious damage to the body, including degenerative diseases such as cancer, and premature aging.

These chain reactions are stopped by the presence of antioxidants, “extra-stable” compounds that can give up their electrons without becoming free radicals themselves. Antioxidants protect us from free radical damage and help maintain our health and well-being.

There is no escape from the presence of free radicals. They occur naturally as a result of metabolism and abound in environmental pollution. Under ideal conditions, there are enough antioxidants in our food to counter their effects. But we are not now living under ideal conditions.

Our environment is polluted with hundreds of toxic substances that can each start free radical chain reactions inside our cells.

That’s why anti-oxidants are so critically important to our health and quality of life.

Even though we have limited control over the environment we live in, we have a lot of control over what we eat and drink – and we can do ourselves a power of good by eating and drinking plenty of antioxidants.

However, few people consume the five or more servings of fresh vegetables and fruit daily that we know are essential to protect against almost every modern disease. It’s one of the reasons we become sick. We need the nutrients and phyto-chemicals that are available to us only in greens to quench free radicals so we can stay healthy.

Barley grass contains an extremely potent anti-oxidant called superoxide dismutase or “SOD”. In addition to protecting against free radical damage, SOD helps the body to absorb vitamins and minerals while acting as an anti-inflammatory that keeps cells healthy.

Super Kamut Barley juice had a surprising curative effect in mice injected with cancer, probably due to SOD. In fact, the life spans of mammal species varies in direct proportion to the amount of SOD in their cells. If you wish to live a long, healthy, high quality life, you might do yourself a favor by being sure to include SOD in your diet.

Barley grass contains more than 900 other enzymes besides SOD, many of which are powerful antioxidants. It also contains 11 times more calcium than cows' milk, nearly 5 times more iron than spinach, and 7 times more vitamin C than oranges.

Like the other superfoods, this grass supports our life force in ways that are already known to science, and in ways that are still being discovered. Its vitamins, minerals, proteins, enzymes, anti-oxidants, phyto-chemicals and fiber are present in ideal proportions. They are easy to absorb. They nourish us.

I recommend that my patients take all of these superfoods every day. They are an essential part of my natural cure plan. I formulated them in my Super-Kamut product to make it easy to get all you need of these superfoods in one combined single scoop.

If you want to boost the amount of barley grass that you take even further, Green Magma is a good product to consider. It is a food. You cannot "overdose" on it. You'll find it in most health food stores.
