This
Parents’ Day
, show your love and care to your parents by giving them the invaluable gifts of heart health and empowerment with
“scientifically tested & proven” oat beta-glucan or oat bran products.
It is already of public knowledge that by taking 3g of beta-glucan from oat bran can help reduce cholesterol in a natural way. Many health experts have confirmed the positive association between lowered blood cholesterol levels and reduced risk of developing heart disease. Every 1% reduction in blood cholesterol level is shown to reduce 2% of heart disease risk.
Due to high public awareness on the cholesterol-lowering benefit of oat beta-glucan, there are now so many similar oat bran products emerging in the consumer market. How to choose the best among them? As a smart consumer, it is imperative to check the product label for more information. Most importantly, the cholesterol-lowering efficacy of the product must be substantiated with scientific evidence. The criteria listed below will guide you through your shopping process:
1. Choose products which are
fully
made of oat bran powder and without other non-oat ingredients.
2. Check the
oat beta-glucan content
at the nutrition information on the product packaging. In the Malaysian context, the maximum amount of oat beta-glucan allowed in food products is only
20 g per 100 g
or
20%
.
3. Check the
carbohydrate content
at the nutrition information on the product packaging. High amount of carbohydrates (simple sugars & starch) do not favour individuals with elevated blood sugar level and/or overweight problem.
4. Good
solubility
and
gel-forming ability
of the oat bran powder in water. Oat beta-glucan with high molecular weight (> 2000 kDa) is shown to have greater gel-forming ability in water.
5. Cholesterol-lowering effect of the oat bran powder is
clinically-tested
and
documented.
