HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Barley Grass Juice by TerraVita
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: barley grass juice glycerite liquid extract. Barley grass is the young green shoots of the barley plant, concentrated and preserved in glycerin as a liquid.
The only other ingredient listed is the glycerin itself, which keeps the extract stable.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Barley grass has been rated likely effective for lowering cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) and for supporting heart health in coronary heart disease. The evidence supporting these uses comes from clinical study data on file.
If you're taking this for those purposes, the research backing is solid.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Barley is well tolerated when you eat it as a regular food — most people don't have trouble with it. The main caution is that barley contains gluten, so if you're gluten-sensitive or have celiac disease, you'll want to avoid this.
The most common side effects from oral barley products are mild digestive complaints like bloating, gas, and an unpleasant taste. Allergic reactions are possible in sensitive individuals and can range from minor itching to severe reactions like throat swelling or trouble breathing in rare cases.
For pregnancy and breastfeeding, the data on concentrated barley supplements (as opposed to barley as food) is limited, so talk with your doctor or midwife before using this product if you're pregnant or nursing.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
If you take triclabendazole (Egaten) for a parasitic infection, double-check with your pharmacist or doctor before starting this product — barley may reduce how well the medication works. Use the search tool on this page to check your exact medications.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is a solid choice if you're looking to support cholesterol and heart health — the evidence backs barley grass for those uses. Just watch out for the gluten content if that's a concern for you, and check with your pharmacist if you take triclabendazole.
If you're pregnant, nursing, or have a history of allergies to grains, run it past your doctor first.
