Our certified Organic Oat Bran is human food grade, and freshly milled for us on request.  Oat bran is exceptional in that it contains high levels of beta glucans.  Beta-glucan is a soluble dietary fibre present typically in oats.  The beta-glucan content in whole grain oats (such as our Certified Organic Oats) varies from 2% to 8% dry weight.  The beta-glucan content in our Certified Organic Oat Bran is usually between 6 to 10% of dry weight.

In humans, a lot of research has been carried out regarding the digestive properties of oat beta-glucans and it is known that consumption of beta-glucans from oats can contribute to the reduction of the blood glucose rise after a meal.  Studies show that oats have a lower glycemic index than other cereals in horses too.  Oat beta glucan is currently subject to a lot of research for its role in interacting with and boosting the immune system. If you feed Organic Oat Bran on a regular basis, remember to balance the calcium:phosphorus ration in the diet, by adding a teaspoon of limestone flour per 100g of oat bran fed.
