What is Beta-Glucan?Oats are generally considered more healthy and nutritious than the other main cereals, well-known for the benefits of digestion and eaten for hundreds of years by both animals and humans. Today many health-oriented people have their oat porridge every morning as breakfast. One of the more clinical breakthroughs was the discovery of oat beta glucan cholesterol-lowering properties, especially for the metabolic syndrome. The latest research demonstrates that oats and oat beta glucan can be recommended as part of a healthy diet to reduce the risk of CVD. Oats are a naturally rich source of beta-glucan. The effect of oat beta-glucan on both serum cholesterol and blood glucose reduction is proven. Internationally recognized associations, such as the European Society of Cardiology and the US National Cholesterol Education Program, support the role of oat beta-glucan, and specifically its viscosity in lowering blood cholesterol levels. It has been established that the consumption of at least 3g per day of oat beta-glucan can achieve a reduction in LDL cholesterol of up to 10% and reduce the risk of CVD by as much as 20%.

Probiotic Oats?Probiotics are live bacteria that are good for your health, especially your digestive system. We usually think of bacteria as something that causes diseases. But your body is full of bacteria, both good and bad. Probiotics are often called "good" or "helpful" bacteria because they help keep your gut healthy. Every cup of BetaOats is full of millions of good bacteria to provide you with your daily dose of healthy probiotics.
