Considered to be the first cereal grain cultivated by humans, the uses of barley date back to 7000 BC. Our Barley Grass is organically grown on the fertile plains by the European farmers. Barley Grass is harvested whilst the plant is still young at its nutritional peak. It is then processed at one of the largest, highly innovative, and most efficient dehydration plants in Europe. The final processing step involves milling barely grass into a fine powder form. It takes 5kg of fresh leaves to produce 1kg of powder.

Statements
ALLERGEN STATEMENT
We hereby certify that Barley grass powder does not contain any substances causing allergies or intolerances as ingredients. However, there is a remote possibility of cross contamination by gluten (please see explanation below). The list of allergens which are likely to cause adverse reactions in susceptible individuals is provided in Annex II of Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011. Please note that this statement is based on the information provided by the manufacturer of the product.
While wheatgrass and barley grass in their pure forms are considered gluten-free, it matters how they're harvested and how products containing them are produced. Gluten is contained in the seed of the wheat and barley grasses. Therefore, if a farmer allows some of the grasses to begin producing seeds prior to harvest, then that particular crop will contain gluten or have gluten exposure. While our grass powders are from quality, respected sources, and we do not believe they are harvested with any seeds, we recommend that anyone with celiac's disease or gluten-free diet issues avoid any product containing wheat or barley grass that's not specifically tested to be gluten-free.
