PRODUCT DESCRIPTION :
Barley, Hordeum vulgare, is an edible annual grass in the family Poaceae grown as a cereal grain crop. It is a tall grass with a hairy stem which stands erect and produces spikelets at the head. The stem is made up of nodes and internodes. ... 
Barley plants are freely tillering and typically possesses 1–6 stems.
 
Barley (Hordeum vulgare), a member of the grass family, is a major cereal grain grown in temperate climates globally. It was one of the first cultivated grains.
Barley has been used as animal fodder, as a source of fermentable material for beer and certain distilled beverages, and as a component of various health foods. It is used in soups and stews, and in barley bread of various cultures.
 
Barley grains are commonly made into malt in a traditional and ancient method of preparation.In 2017, barley was ranked fourth among grains in quantity produced (149 million tonnes) behind maize, rice and wheat.
 
CULTIVATION IN SPAIN ANDALUSIA :
Cultivated in fertile Andalucian lands, sun-drenched and surrounded by water, there is no better place in Europe to grow barley and provide all the nutrients and health benefits. Especially keep cool to keep you the best sweet taste in your palate of flavors and mouth.
 
HISTORICAL ORIGIN :
Barley is a kind of whole grain which was first grown about 10,000 years back in Ethiopia as well as in some parts of Southeast Asia. It absolutely was utilized by our historical forefathers not just for food as well as for making alcoholic drinks, but in addition for therapeutic reasons. Consuming barley has various advantages.
 
History. The exact origin of barley is debatable, possibly originating in Egypt, Ethiopia, the Near East or Tibet (3). However, we are fairly certain that barley was among the earliest cultivated grains, around the same time as domestication of wheat.
 
Remains of barley (Hordeum vulgare) grains found at archaeological sites in the Fertile Crescent indicate that about 10,000 years ago the crop was domesticated there from its wild relative Hordeum spontaneum. 
The domestication history of barley is revisited based on the assumptions that DNA markers effectively measure genetic distances and that wild populations are genetically different and they have not undergone significant change since domestication.
The monophyletic nature of barley domestication is demonstrated based on allelic frequencies at 400 AFLP polymorphic loci studied in 317 wild and 57 cultivated lines.
The wild populations from Israel-Jordan are molecularly more similar than are any others to the cultivated gene pool. The results provided support for the hypothesis that the Israel-Jordan area is the region in which barley was brought into culture.
Moreover, the diagnostic allele I of the homeobox gene BKn-3, rarely but almost exclusively found in Israel H. spontaneum, is pervasive in western landraces and modern cultivated varieties.
In landraces from the Himalayas and India, the BKn-3 allele IIIa prevails, indicating that an allelic substitution has taken place during the migration of barley from the Near East to South Asia. Thus, the Himalayas can be considered a region of domesticated barley diversification.
 
However, the centre of origin of barley has not been fully resolved. H. spontaneum, the wild ancestor of cultivated barley, has been discovered in several geographically distinct locations other than the Fertile Crescent, such as Morocco, Algeria, Libya, Egypt, Crete, Ethiopia, and Tibet, leading to the proposal of a multicentric origin for this crop.
 
HEALTH BENEFITS :
Barley is a cereal grain created from the annual grass Hordeum vulgare. Barley is among the mostly grown grains on earth. It features a nutty taste, a texture much like pasta and is also probably the most nourishing cereal grain.Consuming barley has various advantages.
 
Rich in Many Beneficial Nutrients. ...
Reduces Hunger and May Help You Lose Weight. ...
Insoluble and Soluble Fiber Content Improves Digestion. ...
May Prevent Gallstones and Reduce Your Risk of Gallbladder Surgery. ...
Beta-Glucans May Help Lower Cholesterol. ...
May Reduce Heart Disease Risk.
 
Helps Develop and Repair Body Tissue
Barley is additionally full of phosphorus that helps with cell regeneration.
Supports Immune System
The vitamin C content in barley is almost two times than that of oranges.Iron increases the blood volume and also helps prevent anemia as well as exhaustion. 
Controls Blood Cholesterol Levels
Barley’s insoluble fiber yields propionic acid that can help keep the blood levels of cholesterol low.
Manages Diabetes
Barley grain has all of the important minerals and vitamins, especially beta-glucan soluble fiber, which decelerates glucose absorption.
Prevents Heart Disease & Cancer
One of these simple new lignans is known as enterolactone, which will help us to avoid breast and other hormonal cancers in addition to coronary or heart disease.
Selenium in Barley Improves Skin Elasticity
Probably the most essential uses of barley for skin is maintenance of skin elasticity. The high amount of Selenium present in Barley is a crucial ingredient that works well for conserving the elasticity of the skin that stops premature aging of the skin and safeguards the skin from the damaging effects of free-radicals and oxidative stress.
Barley is Protective against Childhood Asthma
Increased usage of whole grains including barley decreases the likelihood of childhood asthma simply by nearly 50%.
The powerful antioxidants, especially vitamin C and E present in barley works well for normalizing breathing and lower the prevalence of wheezing. The possibilities of asthma along with bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) is also reduced with high consumption of barley.
Improves Immunity
In turn, barley helps your immunity.
Additionally, barley has lots of vitamin C, that also helps your defense mechanisms. Barley enables you to feel full, satisfied, and relaxed.
Healthy Teeth
Barley is full of phosphorus, calcium, and Vitamin C. They are wonderful contributors to healthy teeth and bones.
Reduces Symptoms of Arthritis
Barley has Copper, which might also be helpful in decreasing the the signs of rheumatoid arthritis. Copper disarms free-radicals, therefore helping cell regeneration. Copper is important in cross-linking collagen and elastin, making bones and joints flexible.
