A brain injury can cause seizure(s) because of the unusual amount of energy that is discharged across of the brain when the injury occurs and thereafter. When there is damage to the temporal lobe of the brain, there is a disruption of the supply of oxygen.
What is Barley? Barley (also called groats) is botanically known as Hordeum vulgare and is believed to originate in western Asia or Ethiopia. Dating back to the stone age, barley is still considered one of the top five cereal grains in the world. Only ten percent of barley is used as human food, while a full third is used for brewing malt beverages, including beer and whiskey. However, the majority of harvest barley is used for livestock feed.
In 2005 barley ranked fourth for cereal production (see Gramene Cereals). There are many types of barley, many different uses for it, and a long history of its importance to mankind. Cultivated barley is a member of the genus Hordeum. Cultivated barley is descended from wild barley (Hordeum spontaneum) (12, 13), which still grows wild in the Middle East (12).
