BARLEY WATER: DRINK OF THE ANCIENTS

BARLEY WATER IS SAID TO BE; The Drink of the Gods
BACK TO SIMPLE CHEAP BASICS FOR IMPROVING HEALTH: This is an old recipe from ancient times (a bit modernize with its sugar.) A ninety-year-old man who had never had the flue or been sick in his life gave this recipe to me. He called his drink "Food for the Gods". Check: Google images: "barley water" for more recipes
Barley Water
Boil 3/4 cup organically grown barley (not from GMO plant) in 1 quart of water 7-10 minutes, seep and strain.
Save barley for other cooking (like in oatmeal, or soups)
3/4 cup of barley water (about)
1 Tb. apple cider vinegar
1 Tb. molasses (iron)
1 Tb. raw honey Or, agave nectar).
Stir and drink warm every day.
Note: leave out the sweeteners if a diabetic and add Stevia an herb.
*You can use the barley, formed like oatmeal, or cracked and soaked over night, or whole. Buy it from the health food store. (The GMO barley's been alternated and have no anti fungal values) If grains can't kill parasites in our body they are not good for nothing. All strong plants have properties coded in them to kill their parasite or their natural enemy's, that would normally afflict and destroy the plant. Weaker plants are weeded out and die, as they should in nature. Healthy plants in turn pass their anti fungal properties on to us as we digest the plants killing our fungi's too.
*Use raw UN filtered vinegar
Scripture:…”And again, hot drinks are not for the body or belly…” Don’t drink hot, because too hot and too cold foods or drinks kills natural flora in the stomach and bowels. You’ll need to replenish that flora living continually on yogurts and other fermented type foods. Keeping a balance in the bowels in making up for what’s been lost. What happens to yogurt when you freeze or heat it? The natural pro biotic is then lost. So it is when you cook cheeses and sauerkraut.
Here's scriptures that may help with the understanding of grains regarding this drink.
Scripture quote:…”All grain is good for the food of man; as also the fruit of the vine; that which yielded fruit, whether in the ground or above the ground...”
"Nevertheless, wheat for man, and corn for the ox, and oats for the horse, and rye for the fowls and swine, and for all beasts of the field, and Barley for all useful animals, and for mild drinks, as also other grains... the scriptures continue...quote
..."And all who remember to keep and do these sayings, walking in obedience to the commandments, shall receive health in their navel and marrow to their bones..."
...And shall find wisdom and great treasures of knowledge, even hidden treasures"...
...And shall run and not be weary, and shall walk and not faint..."
...And I, the Lord, give unto them a promise, that the destroying angel shall pass by them, as the children of Israel, and not slay them. Amen." Unquote
You can roast whole barley till dark brown, cool; grind it in a coffee grinder the consistency desired for a substitute coffee. Many health food stores sell sub. coffee's with barley in it. It's actually a nice drink. Add real no hormone cream and sweetener.
