What it is

Organic sprouted barley is whole barley grain that has been allowed to germinate (sprout) before being processed. Sprouting can change the grain's nutritional profile and make it easier to digest. It is often milled into flour for use in baked goods and cereals.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use sprouted barley flour as a whole grain ingredient in breads, cereals, and other baked goods. It contributes a nutty flavor and chewy texture, and is often chosen for its perceived nutritional benefits.

Health notes

Organic sprouted barley is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of fiber and nutrients. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated barley and its components, but have not set specific limits for sprouted barley itself. Research suggests whole grains like barley may contribute to heart health and digestive wellness as part of a balanced diet.

Allergen info

Barley contains gluten, a protein that can cause adverse reactions in people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Barley is not one of the 9 FDA major allergens.
