November 22, 2018 - barley was evaluated based on its ability to inhibit alpha-amylase and alpha-glucosidase activities in vitro. This was expressed as IC50, which is the concentration needed to inhibit 50 percent of enzymatic activity. In addition to this, the researchers determined whether churning would have an effect on enzyme inhibition activity using the following setups: 1) no churning, 2) churning for 20 minutes, 3) churning for 30 minutes. Results showed that barley effectively ...

Hexacosanol in barley sprouts regulates AMPK activation and inhibits SREBP-2

In their study, the researchers investigated the hypocholesterolemic activity of hexacosanol on hepatocytes (liver cells) and mice with high-fat diet-induced obesity. They hypothesized that hexacosanol, a policosanol derived from barley sprout, could decrease cellular and plasma cholesterol levels. Policosanols are bioactive components of plants that are known for their cholesterol-lowering ...

EPA approves chlormequat chloride pesticide for wheat, barley and oat crops, putting human and mammalian reproduction at risk

https://www.naturalnews.com/2023-05-12-epa-approves-chlormequat-for-wheat-barley-oats.html

May 12, 2023 - barley, oat, and triticale production in the US, but this will come at a cost for both ecology and human health.

Dr. Phil Landrigan, a professor of public health and epidemiologist at Boston College, called out the EPA for failing to execute their "legal duty to protect infants and children against the toxic effects of pesticides." Landrigan said the EPA “appears not to have taken that responsibility seriously.” Chlormequat residues will now multiply in the food supply ...

Barley goes from ancient grain to whole grain: New “buck naked” hull-free variety has higher nutrition for uses in food, feed, brew

https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-01-29-barley-new-buck-naked-hull-free-variety-has-higher-nutrition.html

January 29, 2018 -

The difference between Buck and most barley grains is the presence of a cover called a hull, which is the outer layer of the grain. Unlike other barley grains, Buck's hull doesn't hang on to the grain, and instead simply falls off during harvest. This is what causes its naked look and helps it preserve not only all of the nutrient-rich bran but also the status of being a whole grain.

In a typical harvest, food manufacturers will grind off the hull from ...

STUDY: Farming sector of Ukraine, the “breadbasket of Europe,” won’t recover for at least 20 years

https://www.naturalnews.com/2023-06-21-farming-ukraine-breadbasket-wont-recover-20-years.html

June 21, 2023 - barley and corn exports; and 50 percent of sunflower oil exports. These figures have since dropped precipitously.

Keep in mind that the report came out prior to the destruction of the Kakhovka dam in Southern Ukraine near Kherson, an event that further destroyed Ukrainian agriculture in one of the most farming-intensive regions of the country. The loss of all that water will effectively turn the land into deserts.

"The destruction of the [Kakhovka dam] will ...
