How does Biogrow® Oat BG22® work? Studies have shown that high viscosity produced from oat beta-glucan with high molecular weight is the key determinant for its cholesterol-lowering and blood glucose-regulating effects in the human bodies*.

Lowering Cholesterol Level
- Oat beta-glucan is a type of soluble fiber that produces a cholesterol-lowering effect due to its high viscosity.
- It dissolves inside the digestive tract where it forms a thick gel in the small intestine. The viscous ‘net’ traps cholesterol and cholesterol-related particles (bile acids) and prevents them from being absorbed into the blood stream. They are then passed, harmlessly out of the body.
- This results in a reduction in circulating - LDL /bad - cholesterol levels.
