• The high fiber content of oats helps maintain normal bowel function and is suitable for people with digestive problems and / or constipation.
• Oat beta-glucans have a hypocholesterolemic effect and reduce blood lipid levels. According to research, beta-glucans, when they pass through the digestive tract, break down and form a sticky substance that traps cholesterol in bile and facilitates its elimination through the intestine. This reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease associated with elevated lipids.
