Barley groats are made from hulled and chopped barley grains, so it is one of the low-processed products, hence the most valuable. It contains natural complex carbohydrates (starch), which is slowly broken down into glucose in the body, providing us with energy for longer. It contains a lot of fiber, which lowers the level of cholesterol in the blood, prevents constipation, and by swelling in the stomach, it makes us saturated longer. In addition, it contains valuable plant proteins and many minerals (iron, magnesium, copper, potassium and phosphorus) and vitamins (mainly from group B). Among other groats, it is distinguished by a high content of niacin, i.e. vitamin PP, which has a great impact on the condition of the skin. Barley groats are the basis of a successful barley soup. It can also be used as a main course with meat or vegetables, and as an ingredient in casseroles and stuffing.
