Question 1

Does Orzo Pupo cause flatulence?

Accepted Answer

Orzo pupo has many benefits:
1) Rich in starch → starch is a carbohydrate that our body easily assimilates: it does not give us the typical invigorating boost of caffeine but rather a gradual dose of energy and wellbeing. It has a positive impact on the nervous system, promoting brain and intellectual activity, which is why it is loved by students and workers looking for something that gives them the right boost in the morning but that does not have negative repercussions on health how is regular coffee.
2) Caffeine free → those who suffer from stomach problems, anxiety or insomnia and need to avoid caffeine can replace classic coffee with barley coffee.
3) Packed with nutrients → potassium and phosphorus to help replenishing the fluids; vitamin B3 which is essential for the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and fats, acts as a support for blood circulation and improves skin health; beta glucan which is essential to slow down the assimilation of carbohydrates and, therefore, recommended especially for diabetics and all those who need to lower their blood sugar.
4) Fat and calorie free → it does not make you fat and it can also be drunk by those who have high cholesterol.  Barley has the power to inhibit the synthesis of LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol that is established in the liver), normalizing its concentrations and benefiting the liver and its functions. 
5) Rich in fibers → it is recommended for those suffering from intestinal disorders, thanks to its ability to stimulate intestinal motility, stretch its walls and prevent mucosal infections. This property is called laxative-relaxing and makes barley a powerful weapon against constipation, dyspepsia, disorders of the hive or simply for those suffering from lazy bowels.

Barley coffee is considered by many a perfect drink because all these benefits. As everything else you should not consume too much in day, a correct and healthy amount is up to 3 cups a day. Drinking too much barley coffee might cause flatulence as a side effect but this should only happen when consumed well above the recommended daily dose.
