BarleyLife Xtra: Fruits and Veggies
Following is a quick rundown of those fruits and vegetables, along with some of their notable qualities.
1) Apple - Apples are a good source of vitamin C. It's one of the major reasons BarleyLife Xtra has over one-third of your daily requirements of Vitamin C. Apples are also a good source of antioxidants (cancer fighters) and have been linked to lower cholesterol levels.
2) Cherries - Cherries have a high ORAC score. They reduce inflammation and contain lots of vitamin C as well as melatonin, a chemical that helps people sleep better.
3) Broccoli - Broccoli contains vitamins A and C and is a good source of calcium. Like cherries, broccoli is known for its anti-inflammatory phytonutrients (plant medicines). It's also a good source of beta carotene, an antioxidant (cancer fighter).
4) Carrots - Consumers already know carrots are good for you. Carrots are famous for their promotion of eye health, due to the antioxidant lutein. However, carrots also have alpha and beta carotene, which contain even more antioxidants as well as a lot of vitamin A. One serving of BarleyLife Xtra has 28 percent of your daily need for vitamin A.
5) Cranberries - Cranberries are a good source of vitamin C and vitamin E. In addition, cranberries are second only to blueberries when it comes to the amount of antioxidants (cancer fighters).
