Oat fiber supplement shows promise for digestion and blood sugar control
NCT ID NCT06739941
First seen Jun 26, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This completed study looked at how well healthy adults tolerate different doses of an oat fiber supplement called BG-OS. Sixty participants took either 5, 10, or 20 grams daily for several weeks. Researchers tracked digestive symptoms, blood sugar levels after eating white rice, and collected stool and blood samples. The goal was to see if the fiber is easy on the stomach and if it helps control blood sugar spikes.
