Barley, or yava according to Ayurveda, is one of the oldest cereal grains on earth, considered to be very rich in nutrition. It serves mainly to promote health with its rich minerals, vitamins, and fiber (beta-glucan), much more than a simple food item, a supplement supporting metabolic health, weight loss, and digestive health.

Weight Management: On account of its high contractions of fiber and protein, it offers a sense of fullness, more of which apparently instigates less-from eating.
