Product Description

Oat beta-glucan is a soluble fiber that is found in the cell wall of whole oats. It is comprised of long chains of glucose and is a polysaccharide. This fiber is not digested. It binds toxins and cholesterol in the digestive tract and helps them to be excreted. This compound has been shown to help lower the levels of cholesterol in the blood. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) allows some food labels to claim that they may reduce the risk of heart disease, if certain conditions are met. To do this, one serving of a food must contain 3g of whole oat fiber, and be eaten daily in combination with an overall diet low in cholesterol, saturated fat, and fat. Whole oats include rolled oats, oat bran, and oat flour. The mechanism by which oat beta-glucan is thought to lower cholesterol involves the secretion of bile from the gall bladder into the digestive tract. Bile contains toxins and cholesterol. If there is soluble fiber, such as oat beta-glucan, in the digestive tract, it can bind these compounds and excrete them in bowel movements. Otherwise, they may be reabsorbed by the liver and end up circulating in the blood. High levels of cholesterol can contribute to coronary artery disease.
There are other health benefits claimed for oat beta-glucan. For instance, there is some research that it can improve the immune system. This is the case for a number of beta-glucans. Also, it has been thought to improve blood sugar levels, which can help diabetics. It is also supposed to reduce hypertension.
