Molecular linkages can be of a (1,4) type, a (1,3) type and a (1,6) linkage. These are important because each linkage type creates a different molecular shape for the Beta glucan and may account for their function inside the body.
When looking at Beta glucan derived from oats, the research has focused almost exclusively on only two positive effects of this type of Beta glucan. Those two effects are that on cholesterol and blood sugar challenged individuals. More than one study has shown that feeding an individual or animal dietary Beta glucan from an oat source will lower the cholesterol by 9%. Other studies confirmed that only certain types of people will respond to dietary oat fiber and still others show that cooking the oat-derived Beta glucan markedly decreased the effectiveness of the soluble fiber. Cooking the oats may destroy some of the linkage bonds in the molecule.
Research on blood sugar challenged individuals showed lower insulin and blood sugar levels when a person ate oat-derived Beta glucan as compared to control subjects. The mechanism of action of this product against high blood sugar is unknown.
In addition, oat-derived Beta glucan seems to increase the amount of bile acids secreted in human test subjects. Bile acids come from the liver and gall bladder and contain a significant amount of cholesterol.
