What is Oat Bran?
Oat bran is the outer layer of an oat grain. The main structural difference is that oatmeal (typically rolled oats) is whole grain, whereas oat bran is merely oat bran. Both are good options for an enriched diet, however consuming more oat bran products rather than whole grain products is the way to go! Oat bran is a high-fiber food that contains 50% more protein and fiber than oatmeal. Furthermore, oat bran contains more antioxidants, B vitamins, and minerals than other oat products.
What is GardenScent WFN Oat Bran Powder (GS Oat Bran Powder)?
GS Oat Bran Powder is unlike any other oat product. It uses a patented process to break down the tough outer layer of oat cells, allowing oat beta-glucans to enter into the body and become easily digestible for optimal absorption.
Our oat bran powder contains high levels of oat beta-glucan. 1 heaping tablespoon (7.5g) of GS Oat Bran Powder has 750mg of Oat Beta-Glucan compared to 25g of oat.
Benefits of GS Oat Bran Powder and How It Works
Lowers blood cholesterol level naturally
Oat bran contains soluble fiber (beta-glucan), which lowers low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or “bad” cholesterol. Soluble fiber lowers overall cholesterol levels and the risk of heart disease by binding to cholesterol-producing fats, reducing cholesterol absorption, and carrying it out of the body through natural digestion.
Helps in blood glucose management
Beta-glucan can help with blood glucose management because it forms a gel in the intestine and stomach, increasing the viscosity of the intestine and stomach contents and causing food to be emptied more slowly. Thus, blood sugar spikes can be avoided, and blood sugar levels can rise gradually over a longer time period.
Aids in weight management
Oat bran enters the digestive tract after consumption, where its soluble fibre absorbs water and forms a gel-like substance, creating a feeling of fullness. This will help to maintain the feeling of fullness for a longer period of time, allowing you to control your calorie intake.
Helps maintain digestive health
Good bacteria aid the body’s resistance to pathogenic bacteria, yeast, and parasites. Beta-glucan functions as a prebiotic, supplying nutrients to good bacteria (probiotics) in the intestine for optimal growth and health.
Convenient and versatile
GS Oat Bran Powder can be added to beverages, juices, smoothies, and puddings, as well as baked goods and soups. It thickens beverages and smoothies, giving them a silky-smooth mouth feel. Suitable for people of all ages, especially diabetics, lactose intolerant individuals, the elderly, and those with swallowing difficulties.
Ingredient:
100% Oat Bran Powder, no fillers, binders or sweeteners added.
Suggestion of Use:
Simply mix 1–2 tablespoons of GS Oat Bran Powder into your favorite beverage or juice twice a day. You can adjust your intake of GS Oat Bran Powder to meet your specific needs. Some customers, particularly those who haven’t been eating enough fiber on a daily basis, may notice some tummy discomfort, gas, or bloating at first. This is because your stomach and digestive system are unable to process and deal with the abrupt increase in fiber load. If you have any of these symptoms, start with 1 tablespoon and gradually increase your regular consumption. This is to give your digestive system time to adjust to the increased fiber consumption.
