B-glucan is soluble fibre so like pectin and gums ...so nice and smooth with no scratching :) In a beaker it looks a bit like runny wallpaper...
A long time ago (1980’s/early 90’s) I did work on b-glucan research and it’s cholesterol lowering properties. It’s this part of oats that is the...
No worries it’s just a bit of fun and a best fit answer :). I would answer the first option from what you describe (IBS being GI related and...

Another update on my memory saga. I saw the lady from primary mental health today (she is a mental health nurse not a psychiatrist) She...
