Barley tea and babies

Roasted Barley Tea is a remedy for cold and flu for breaking up congestion, phlegm and other symptoms of the nasty seasonal bug. It is also useful for those suffering from bronchitis and asthma.

Barley-based teas are used as treatment for hemorrhoids, inflammatory arthritis and are believed to help reduce toxicity and side-effects of radiation and chemotherapy. Herbalists use barley concoctions to treat gravel stones and flush out kidneys and for centuries

Old World doctors have recommended this plain barley water as a first food for babies and for bedridden patients whose stomachs cannot handle solid foods.

Personally I drink it every day, as a substitute for water, feels good and during pregnancy I drank
Up to 3-4 l per day, now I believe about 2 l. My son is teething and he likes dipping his tongue into barley
Tea, it sooths him so well- it is a magic drink!!!!
