As with other whole grains such as oats, barley is an excellent source of soluble and insoluble dietary fibre. Studies have shown that the insoluble fibre found in barley can be extremely effective in maintaining regular intestinal function, thus reducing the incidence of certain types of cancer such as colon cancer. Additionally, the soluble fibre found in barley can help lower blood cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease.
