Oatwell™ is an all-natural oat bran powder that is concentrated in oat beta-glucan. Oat beta-glucan is a soluble dietary fibre and the active component of oats which may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease by reducing blood cholesterol levels. The secret behind the beneficial properties of oats lies in its soluble dietary fibre – oat beta-glucan. High cholesterol is a risk factor in the development of coronary heart disease and it has now been scientifically proven that oats have a positive effect on our health as the oat beta-glucan content is proven to reduce cholesterol levels and thus reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. Cholesterol reduction is achieved with a daily intake of 3g bioactive oat beta-glucan .Oatwell™, which is especially high in oat beta-glucan, should thus be an important part of every food plan.
Recently launched in South Africa; GlucaChol-22™ with OatWell™ is available at Dis-Chem country wide www.atlife.co.za / www.friendoatwell.co.za / @Mi-Vitamin
