Very refreshing and great if you just want something quick. You can also add a spoonful of the powder to your juices to make them extra nutritious! We get our Organic Wheatgrass Powder from Harmonik Ireland http They also sell Barley Grass Powder www.harmonikireland.com We also shared about Body Brushing. Body brushing is great for helping to move the Lymph around the body and release the toxins, and so really compliments the Juice Feast. To use the body brush, you simply brush softly towards your heart. The body brush is also great for helping to remove cellulite. Matthew also shares a little bit of what he gets up to in his spare time. Bruce Lee moves! Wishing you health and blessings, Victoria Whitehead

www.superfoodhealthyliving.com www.superfoodhealthyliving.com Barley Barley’s claim to fame is, again, how nutrient dense it really is. Packed with fiber, selenium, tryptophan, copper, manganese, phosphorus – it’s one of the top 10 super foods alright. Barley’s also an intestinal powerhouse. When barley is eaten and is broken down in the stomach, the insoluble fiber in barley is actually fermented in butyric acid. That doesn’t mean much to me and you, but that’s the energy source for the cells in the large intestine. Your body actually turns the undigestible part of barley into food that it can use. Barley’s fiber alone helps the colon, helps prevent colon cancer, helps to lower cholesterol and clean the liver. (Can you start to see how this list of 10 super foods was put together?) In addition to fiber, barley is a good source of Niacin (a B Vitamin) which helps to prevent free radical damage and lowers cholesterol. Our recommendation: Find yourself a great barley soup recipe and eat it every time the school’s close down due to snow.
