| Does the color look similar
to barleygrass juice or the grass itself? The bright green is the
active chlorophyll. A darker color results when the product starts
oxidizing just like an apple start turning brown when you cut it in
half. Laboratory methods used for measuring the levels of chlorophyll
do not typically distinguish between fresh (active) and denatured
(inactive) chlorophyll. |
Barleygreen is bright
vibrant green similar to the fresh barleygrass in the fields.

company have processing barleygrass juice into powder? Many companies
claim to have a new better process yet they've been doing it less than a
year. |
Dr. Hagiwara's company have
been doing it over 20 years. Every day they're still learning and
refining their processes. Barleygreen has been the industry leader for
over 20 years because they understand how to drying the barleygrass
juice into powder without damaging the delicate valuable nutrients. |

| How does it taste? Some
barley powder have an unpleasant bitter taste. Usually the bitter taste
results from inexperience in processing. The product is being burned
during an inadequately controlled spray-drying process. Unfortunately,
burned green powder is known to contain several types of carcinogens. |

experience that bitter taste. When the company first started, they did
experience similiar problems.

| Does the company reference
Dr. Hagiwara's research in promoting their product? All the research
studies were using Barleygreen powder or juice. Most barley powders are
very different from Barleygreen and have NO relation with Dr. Hagiwara's
process. It's false and misleading for companies to reference Dr.
Hagiwara's research and claim their product will produce the same
benefit and more. |
Barleygreen is the only
product that was used in Dr. Hagiwara's scientific research. |
