Barley Life and the company that makes it

  • AIM is by far the biggest distributor of Green Barley Juice in the world !

  • AIM Africa and USA are debt free & only operate ‘in the black’

  • AIM’s patent-pending manufacturing process for BarleyLife® is a world first

  • AIM Company has been in operation for 20 years

  • AIM’s Barley product is grown, tested, packaged and otherwise controlled by AIM at every stage of development.

  • The Barley grass is grown in New Zealand and Canada, both considered to be among the most clean, green and pristine environments in the world. These two production locations are important because they have rich soil, pure water and no surrounding smokestack industries.

  • After two decades of marketing green barley powder, the company owners set out to improve the product by growing their own crops and got involved in the harvesting and processing of BarleyLife®

  • In the fall of 2001, after two years of research and development to grow and harvest their own Barley Grass. AIM did several test plots where they harvested and juiced their first harvests of organic Barley Grass - the results were stupendous! Preliminary analyses showed that the new product had all the constituents of other barley products, but in substantially higher amounts.

  • From there on carefully selected crop rotations, field preparation and cross drill seeding have become key factors in BarleyLife®'s overall quality helping to ensure that BarleyLife®'s soil retains optimal pH levels and trace elements that contribute substantially to the nutritional profile of the juice itself.

  • Every Phase of researching and developing BarleyLife® was influenced by a single, but all-encompassing concept—Life. There’s life in the soil, in the seed, in the barley leaves, in the concentrated juice and in the powder.

  • BarleyLife® is the best whole food answer to today’s quick-paced, nutritionally deficient lifestyle.

  • BarleyLife® is a superior green barley powder due not only to ambitious research but also to a scientific approach to crop management.

  • The seed variety AIM uses was chosen only after thorough investigation and field trials that showed that it would give the widest window of harvest, best juice yield and highest nutritional content

  • Planting must be staggered for a consistent processing campaign, this wider window provides the ability to harvest each field at precisely the optimal stage when each plant is bursting with nutrition.

  • Research has revealed that the antioxidant level within the barley leaves is higher during certain times of day, which factors in to determining when to harvest the plants.

  • Quality control plays a big role in scientific crop management and AIM's Commitment to Excellence. The soil in which the barley is grown is tested for mineral content before planting and after harvesting. The water used on the plants is also tested to make sure that it is not contaminated. The barley leaves are also tested before they are juiced to guarantee that they are free of chemical contamination.

  • Scientific crop management also requires the harvested plants to be juiced and chilled immediately, thus rendering the enzymes dormant and preserving precious nutrients. The juice is put through a cold filtration process and spray-dried. The minimal amount of heat used and the rapid drying process ensures that nutrients remain intact. These nutrients are then released and made available when the powder is reconstituted and consumed.

  • The results people are experiencing are absolutely tremendous. Extend your life—drink BarleyLife®.
