HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Barley Grass by Herbadiet

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
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: organic barley grass powder. Barley grass is the young leaf of the barley plant, used as a concentrated supplement.

There are no other inactive ingredients listed.

Does it work?

Strong evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Barley's overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports Barley for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Coronary heart disease (CHD) — rated "Likely Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Hypercholesterolemia — rated "Likely Effective" (Natural Medicines).

The data we hold shows barley grass is likely effective for high cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) and coronary heart disease (CHD). If you're taking it for either of those reasons, the evidence supports that approach.

For other uses, we don't have effectiveness ratings on file.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Barley

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Barley is generally well tolerated when eaten as food, but this product contains gluten — so if you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, it's not for you. The most common side effects from oral barley are bloating, flatulence, abdominal distension, and unpleasant taste.

Some people may have allergic reactions, ranging from mild (tingling or rash) to serious (angioedema, difficulty breathing, anaphylaxis) — especially if you're sensitive to cereal grains. There isn't enough safety data on concentrated barley supplements during pregnancy or breastfeeding to know either way.

If you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this to decide together whether it's right for you.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Barley.

  • For scale: 1 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

If you take triclabendazole (Egaten), a parasite medication, barley grass may reduce its effectiveness. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before combining them.

Animal research suggests that a diet supplemented with barley can reduce the bioavailability of triclabendazole when taken concomitantly. This effect has not been shown in humans.
