20 Nov

Written By Sophie Cartwright

The Grains & Legumes Nutrition Council’s Whole Grain Week is here! We’re bringing you Karlu Chu, The Healthy Grain CEO to take us on the journey of BARLEYMAX® and show us why this whole grain really is a superfood.

We cover:

About Karlu Chu, CEO
BARLEYMAX® cultivated by CSIRO
What is BARLEYMAX®?
BARLEYMAX® growers
Use of BARLEYMAX® in food products
The scientific evidence of BARLEYMAX® and gut health
Elevate Food Co
Collaboration in the journey of BARLEYMAX®
Global Health Trends

One-liners you don’t want to miss:

“BARLEYMAX® is a whole grain which has more than 30% fibre and 16% plant protein and also 4 types of prebiotics including fructans, arabinoxylans, beta-glucans and also resistant starch.”

“We are bringing to the consumers here a more complete set of products which are 100% BARLEYMAX®. So consumers can get their BARLEYMAX® in bread, in cereals or as a snack or salad topper.”
