Chet: Thanks for the info on maltodextrin. Two people who have purchased
Barley Green from us say it makes them sick. I just ordered some without the
kelp and hope that works. Have you had any experience with people getting sick
on the B.G.?

 Maltodextrin is a natural, complex carbohydrate. It is not a
 simple sugar (dextrose, fructose, sucrose, table sugar, corn
 syrup, etc.) and does not behave like a simple sugar. It can be
 derived from potato or corn starch, and its starch component
 frees glucose across the human intestinal barrier in a
 time-release fashion over several hours. No steep rise or fall
 of blood sugar results. Maltodextrin is used to help stabilize
 and protect Barleygreen. When the maltodextrin is sprayed on to
 Barleygreen, it forms a protective shield around the fragile
 nutrients. This shield is "broken" when you add a liquid and
 drink the product.
