beta-glucan

Barley contains beta-glucan, which may help reduce the risk of heart disease.

A review with special emphasis on cereals rich in beta-glucan.

This is because of the beta-glucan in the oats.

One of those fibers, beta-glucan, has shown cholesterol-lowering effects.

Effect of beta-glucan from oats and yeast on serum lipids.

Therapeutic intervention with complement and beta-glucan in cancer.

The hypocholesterolemic effects of beta-glucan in oatmeal and oat bran.

"Oat beta-glucan reduces the cholesterol level in the blood.

Beta-glucan is the soluble fiber that is clinically proven to reduce cholesterol.

Rice bran also contains a high level of dietary fibres (beta-glucan, pectin and gum).

Oats contain beta-glucan, a special type of fiber that has particularly powerful cholesterol-lowering effects, and may also boost immune-system function.

Beta-glucan from barley and its lipid-lowering capacity: a meta-analysis of randomized, controlled trials.

Eligible sources of soluble fiber providing beta-glucan include:

Oat beta-glucan is a soluble fibre.

Oat beta-glucan is comprised of mixed-linkage polysaccharides.

The lower heat may also degrade less of the beta-glucan in the oats, which gives oats their cholesterol-lowering properties.

In comparison, the indigestible polysaccharide cellulose is also a beta-glucan, but is not soluble.

A water-insoluble beta-glucan, RVS3-II, has been isolated from the fruit bodies.

These include beta-glucan (β-glucan) and acetylated α-glucan.

It also contains other compounds often found in fungal materials, including polysaccharides (such as beta-glucan), coumarin, mannitol, and alkaloids.

Oats have a filling fiber compound called beta-glucan which helps the body release CCK, a hunger-supressing hormone.

Sizofiran is a beta-glucan, also known as schizophyllan and abbreviated as SPG in many papers.

Yeast-derived beta-glucan significantly enhanced phagocytic activity in an experimental mouse model of sepsis induced by Candida albicans and midline laparotomy.

Oat beta-glucan increases bile acid excretion and a fiber-rich barley fraction increases cholesterol excretion in ileostomy subjects.

One beta-glucan found in shiitake mushroom (i.e., lentinan) has been used as an adjunctive therapy for cancer (primarily gastric cancer and colorectal cancer) in Japan.
