Styles At Life shares a recipe for making barley water and tells us that it can help to maintain glucose levels for diabetics and has other health benefits as well as helping to flush calcium deposits from the kidneys to helps prevent kidney stones and to detox the kidneys. From what I can see even cooking it in soups helps some what. It seems to help flush my kidneys whenever I eat it. It is really good in soup and stews. It has a sort of chewy texture. I also like to toast it a little bit in an iron skillet and then cook and eat it like oatmeal. Toasting it gives it a nutty flavor.
