Sensational Development
Swedish barley loweres the cholestrol.

     

An important step in the battle against heart and cardiac disease is now to be public. The Swedish company, NutriTech Int AB, organic product Aktivated Barley is without any doubt a strong contender in the battle to a major global health problem. The results from a clinical test conducted at The Center for Clinical tests on Food Stuff at Uppsala University.  The levels of the bad LDL-cholestrol was significantly lower with the testing group. Amazingly the HDL-cholstrol was not affected, which re-enforces the good effects. Besides the already stated the level of the triglycerides significantly was reduced.

  • This is very interesting and important results. At the tests no changes were done to the group’s diet or lifestyle. The statistically secured lowering of the blood fatty levels are just due to the moderate consumption of Aktivated Barley which is the main ingredient in the products of the getAktiv range. Most likely Aktivated Barley will give even better results if you would increase the dosage and if you would consume it as a meal replacement, says doctor Magnus Nylander, one of Swedens leading experts in nutrition and with great experience within the science of the diet for athletes as well as for ”normal” people.

  • The clinical trial was performed during March to June in order to investigate the Aktivated Barley’s effect on the LDL-cholestroel, HDL-cholestrol as well as the triglyceride levels on totally 41 men and women. The study was performed at Uppsala University by Johan Olsson and Birgitta Sundberg.

  • This is really a major breakthrough for NutriTech and our getAktiv range of products. All the things that we have been convinced off, is without any doubt true and proven. With these new developments the getAktiv range and Aktivated Barley is a new and very interesting possibility in the battle against heart and cardiac diseases says Ruzdi Ekenheim, CEO at NutriTech Int AB.

NutriTech natural and organic food supplement Aktiv (based on Aktivated Barley) is being produced from barley grown at the clean fields of Sweden. With the help of the patented process a natural energy booster is created the unique properties. And not only has that, the results from the above mentioned clinical study proved that the properties in the Aktivated Barley has the potential to influence the world health. One major contribution to the strength of the Aktivated Barley is that the molecule weight of the beta-glucans has been kept intact, which very few within the industry has been able to prove as of today.

The products based upon Aktivated Barley and in the retail range, getAktiv, are the only of their kind on a global market. Most of the known nutrition’s are included and the already low GI will be even better for the human body due to the great numbers of active beta-glucans, which lowers the cholesterol and stabilizes the blood sugar. Barley as human foodstuff has a history of more then 6.000 years, even the Roman legions built their endurance on barley porridge. NutriTech Int AB has now even more enhanced the possibilities of the barley.
