• The product is described as GLUTEN and GMO FREE

• It contains "no yeast" and be "gluten free"

Important Considerations

Barley grass vs Barley grain:

Potential for contamination:

• Cross-contamination can occur during harvesting or processing if the grass comes in contact with barley seeds

Certification:

• The company claims the barley is certified organic by NSAA (National Association for Sustainable Agriculture)

Caution for Celiac and Gluten-Sensitive Individuals

While the product is marketed as gluten-free, individuals with celiac disease or severe gluten sensitivity should exercise caution:

• Consult with a healthcare professional before consuming

• Consider products that are explicitly certified gluten-free by recognized organizations.

• Be aware that even trace amounts of gluten can cause reactions in highly sensitive individuals

In conclusion, while Amazing Pure Organic Barley powder is marketed as gluten-free, those with gluten-related disorders should approach it with caution and verify its gluten-free status through third-party certifications or by contacting the manufacturer directly for detailed information.
