High Fiber Breakfast with Barley and Dried Dates

Less popular than other grains, barley contains two key elements that help a detox – fiber and selenium. Fiber, both soluble and insoluble, reduces the amount of time toxins spend in contact with your body. It feeds the good bacteria in your colon, improves digestion, and helps flush out toxins, cholesterol and oestrogens metabolized in the liver, preventing them from leaking back into the circulatory system. Dates also contain high amounts of fiber and potassium, necessary for eliminating excess sodium. Combine them with barley in a warming vegan breakfast that will help your body detox naturally.
