Barley can cause an upset stomach due to the fiber in the barley.

Also some people have trouble digesting barley which can also be a cause of an upset stomach from eating the barley.

Barley can upset your stomach if you eat too much of it or have digestive issues.

Barley is a cereal grain. People often eat the grain as food.

Some people also use the grain to make medicine.

Barley is most commonly used for heart disease and high cholesterol.

In manufacturing, barley is used as a food grain, natural sweetener, and as an ingredient for brewing beer and making alcoholic beverages.

The fastest way to settle an upset stomach are to drink some 7Up, clear liquids, water, tea, juice etc.

Eat foods such as bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast and eat some chicken noodle soup or sip on some warm broth.

Eat plain or bland foods that are less likely to irritate your stomach.

Rest up.

Use an over-the-counter (OTC) anti-vomiting or anti-diarrhea medication.

Apple Cider Vinegar can help with a stomach virus and help settle your stomach as well.

Apple cider vinegar should be consumed 1 tablespoon at a time.

A good breakfast for when you have a stomach virus is a banana, applesauce and toast breakfast.

These foods are bland and gentle on the stomach which is why they are recommended as foods when you have the stomach flu or an upset stomach.
