BGLifeª Barley is not your ordinary barley. It is special because it has an extraordinarily high concentration of the soluble fiber beta-glucan. Research has shown soluble fiber is naturally effective in helping to manage risk factors associated with diabetes and heart disease.

WHAT DOES BETA-GLUCAN DO? It coats your system! Unlike starches, sugars and proteins, beta-glucan is not digested by intestinal enzymes. Instead, it transforms into a water soluble, non-digestible gel that coats the intestine.

This gel traps carbohydrates and dietary fat, regulating the rate of digestion and nutrient absorption. It also attracts some fats and cholesterol, helping flush them from the body.

BENEFITS OF BETA-GLUCAN Supports Healthy Blood Sugar: beta-glucan slows glucose absorption, thereby lowering the Glycemic Index.

Is Proven to Reduce Cholesterol: The FDA concluded that barley foods supplying 3 grams of beta-glucan per day may lower cholesterol by 5%.

Promotes Healthy Blood Pressure: high levels of sodium in the diet are associated with hypertension. BGLife is naturally very low in sodium. Diets low in sodium have been shown to lower blood pressure.
