Oat bran since 1997, it has been recognized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for proven properties of reducing the level of harmful cholesterol in people with high harmful cholesterol values.
In people with normal cholesterol levels, the reduction in the above values is less significant.
Also useful in people with diabetes as it counteracts high blood glucose levels.
Some studies have found an ability to strengthen the immune system by Betaglucans contained in oatbran.
More recent studies have shown the antioxidant capacity of this cereal (1).
