The "Xtra" is that it has natural fruit and vegetable juices that will appeal to even your most finicky young eater.
In this "Xtra" formula, The AIM Companies has combined our well-known green barley with the natural powders of apple, cherry, raspberry, cranberry, strawberry, pineapple, lemon, lime, orange, broccoli, tomato, carrot, grape, kale and acerola cherry, to provide the natural flavorings that will appeal to children.
In particular, the acerola cherry flavor stands out and gives the sweet taste that kids will really like. The natural sweetener, stevia, is used to give BarleyLife Xtra its naturally sweet appeal - without the use of refined sugars or artificial sweeteners.
