Question1. What makes SANTE BARLEY different from other barley grass products?
Answer: Sante Barley is a natural concentrated whole food and its nutrients are in their natural, biologically active states. Many supplements, including multi-vitamin and mineral pills - contain synthetic ingredients. Most grass powders are processed by dehydrating the whole leaf without separating the pulp from the juice. The result is a product that contains a high concentration of insoluble fibre compared to soluble juice nutrients. The nutrients remaining in the powder may be trapped inside the insoluble fibre which the human body cannot breakdown because we lack the enzyme cellulase. Therefore, the amount of nutrition that is absorbed and utilized by consuming whole leaf fibre powders is less compared to the nutrients that we absorb from consuming SANTE BARLEY.
Question2. Is SANTE BARLEY Organic?
Answer: Yes - SANTE BARLEY is fully certified organic.
Not every farm that claims to be organic is organic.

BioGro is accredited by the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM) which represents the best in international organic standards.The BioGro certificate assures us that there are no unsafe levels of heavy metal, herbicide, and insecticide residues. New Zealand farms cannot be "certified organic" if unsafe residues are found. The farm must undergo residue testing as part of its certification.
