Nutritional Comparison of AIM Barley Life™ and Barleygreen®

My wife, Romsey and I have just recently returned from AIM's International Convention in Hawaii and learned of an exciting new product that AIM is now making available called BarleyLife™. After years of research and improved technology, AIM now can offer a product with nearly twice the nutritional content as its predecessor, Barleygreen™ . As so many have received such wonderful results of improved health over the past two decades from taking Barleygreen™, this new improved version of barley powder offers even more promising results. Not only do we receive the increased nutrition with BarleyLife™ but also a better value. We get 25% more for the same price. A nearly 9 ounce jar of BarleyLife™ cost the same as a 7 ounce jar of Barleygreen™, just $31.50 per jar wholesale. We are especially excited about the increased numbers in the enzyme and antioxidant potential categories.

 

Benefits of AIM BarleyLife™

Research has found that green barley extract has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, immune system support, and cholesterol-lowering effects.
Anecdotal evidence indicates that AIM BarleyLife™ helps maintain whole body health and provides increased energy and stamina.

Why is AIM BarleyLife™ better?

  • AIM’s barley seed varieties provide the widest window of harvest.
  • AIM’s barley crops thrive in the clean, green, pristine lands of New Zealand and Canada in which the nutrients in the soil contribute to the nutrients in the plants and the juice.
  • AIM’s barley crops are staggered for a consistent processing campaign in which each field is harvested when the plants are bursting with nutrition.
  • AIM’s barley crops are harvested when they are at their nutritional peak, before they enter the reproductive cycle and use their nutrients to produce grain.
  • AIM’s barley crops are cut only once, allowing for optimum nutrient density.
  • AIM’s harvested barley leaves are juiced and chilled immediately, rendering the enzymes dormant and preserving their precious nutrients.
  • AIM’s barley juice is powdered using the most advanced and efficient methods for ensuring maximum freshness and nutrition.

*Determined by independent analysis. Figures vary with each crop.
 ** To ensure that AIM consistently meets label claims, label values are conservative. The measurements of these key markers on the labels are not the highest that AIM BarleyLifeä has achieved. The values hightlighted are the highest readings for these key markers as determined by an independent, third-party laboratory
.  

The key markers used to determine quality in AIM BarleyLifeä are chlorophyll, protein, SOD (superoxide dismutase), and peroxidase. Chlorophyll is a marker of freshness. The amount of chlorophyll in a product indicates how green and healthy the grass was that produced it. The amount of protein in a product reflects its level of enzymes and amino acids. Enzymes are markers of freshness and amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, which are the major constituents of every cell and body fluid.   SOD is an enzyme with powerful antioxidant abilities. Peroxidase is an enzyme that reduces peroxide into water when SOD breaks down superoxide. Peroxidase is also a strong indicator of the freshness of the product. Calcium is essential for bone development. Vitamin A is an important antioxidant known to protect cells
