I believe everyone should have heard of green juice, which is a drink made from young leaves of barley. When barley grows to twenty or thirty centimeters, its tender leaves are rich in nutrition, and the green juice beverage made from it has many functions such as supplementing human nutrition. Of course, green juice is not only the tender leaves of barley, but also non-toxic vegetables rich in vitamins and minerals such as wild vegetables and mountain vegetables. Many people don't know when it is best to drink green juice. The following small series will introduce you.

It is best to drink on an empty stomach in the morning.

The efficacy of barley Julia juice is exaggerated, three rumors about barley Julia juice.

1, barley green juice is rich in vitamins and its nutritional value is comparable to that of milk.

It is said that barley green juice is the nutritional essence of barley seedlings, which is rich in chlorophyll, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, B vitamins, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, selenium and dietary fiber. Barley green juice is more nutritious than milk.

In fact, just because a food contains a variety of nutrients does not mean that it has high nutritional value. Nutritional value depends on the content of various nutrients and whether the types of nutrients are balanced.

According to a determination of barley green juice, the content of vitamin E is better, but the content of beta carotene is lower than that of spinach, and the content of vitamin C is also very low.

2. Barley green juice can adjust the pH of human body.

Nutrition does divide food into acidic food and alkaline food, but the acidity and alkalinity of human body can hardly be changed by any food. Blood is a buffer solution that circulates constantly, exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs. No matter whether acidic or alkaline substances are added to blood, the concentration of hydrogen ions in blood will not change, so the pH value of blood will remain between 7.35 and 7.45.

3. Barley green juice can reduce weight, improve and treat constipation.

First, the calories of barley green juice are not high, but whether you can lose weight mainly depends on whether the total energy intake and expenditure are balanced.

Secondly, the main way to improve and treat constipation is to increase the intake of crude fiber components, while the crude fiber content of highland barley juice is very small, which can not alleviate the symptoms of constipation at all, let alone treat constipation.
