The words rye and ryegrass cause much confusion. Rye (Secale cereale) typically refers to the cereal or small grain plant. It produces grain with strong flavors and colors. Flour made from it is used to make rye bread.
Ryegrasses are very palatable, high-quality forage grasses. There are several types of ryegrass with varietal differences within each type. The biggest name confusion occurs between annual ryegrass and Italian ryegrass. Botanically, they refer to the same plants (Lolium multiflorum), but they have acquired different meanings in the forage world. These ryegrasses are not true annuals. Under mild winter conditions, especially with sufficient snow cover, annual or Italian ryegrass can survive like a perennial.
The pollen from ryegrass is used to make medicine. Chemicals found in ryegrass pollen decrease swelling caused by inflammation by interfering with certain chemicals. Ryegrass fiber might promote the growth and activity of healthy bacteria in the gut. This helps to promote immunity.
The extraction is obtained by microbial digestion of the pollen followed by extracting with water and an organic solvent. The total extract consists of a water-soluble and acetone-soluble fraction, the latter fraction contains sterols. Pollen extracts have been found to contain at least 21 amino acids, as well as enzymes, coenzymes, sterols, minerals, trace elements, and all known vitamins. Gas chromatography studies found the Cernitin GBX fraction to contain phytosterols and fatty acids, including alpha-linolenic acid.
