Barley Balance® Barley Beta-glucan BB100 is a water-soluble dietary fiber naturally occurring in the cell walls of barley. Barley beta-glucan is comprised of linear chains of D-glucose monomers linked by β-(1-3) and β-(1-4) bonds. This natural structure, along with the high molecular weight and solubility, allow barley beta-glucan to produce diverse bioactive effects in the body. Barley Balance contains a minimum beta-glucan concentration of 23% and is made from the highest quality, non-GMO Canadian barley grains. Unlike oat beta-glucan, no chemical processing of any kind is used in our patented extraction method. This results in product that maintains the best bio-active properties of the natural grain, making it suitable for clean label applications.
