About Babyfood, cereal, barley, dry
Dry infant barley cereal is a smooth, finely ground barley powder, prepared like the other single-grain infant cereals by stirring it into breast milk, formula or water. It is mild and slightly nutty, and is often chosen as an early grain to introduce alongside or after rice and oatmeal.
As a dry powder it provides about 365 calories per 100 grams, with around 11 grams of protein and 8 grams of fiber. As with all infant cereals, the headline nutrient is iron — it is fortified to roughly 47 milligrams per 100 grams — supplied specifically to help babies maintain healthy iron levels once their birth stores begin to fall.
The dry cereal is reconstituted to a thin or thick consistency depending on the baby's stage, and can be blended with fruit purées for flavor. Single grains such as barley are usually offered one at a time so that any reaction is easy to spot. Always follow a pediatrician's guidance on introducing solids; this is general information only.
