Abstract

Wistar rats (ten per group) were fed either an oat-free control diet or a dietary fibre-rich test diet containing 500 g oat-based products/kg for 6 weeks. The oat-based products, containing 4-128 g/kg resistant starch, 30-92 g/kg beta-glucan and 122-304 g/kg total dietary fibre, were oat flour extrudate, flour/Novelose (commercial resistant starch) extrudate (80:20 w/w), oat bran, bran/Novelose extrudate (80:20 w/w) and autoclaved oat flour. Serum total cholesterol decreased in the groups fed flour, flour/Novelose and bran/Novelose (P<0.05). In most of the test groups, count numbers of bifidobacteria were higher (P<0.001) and of coliforms were lower (P<0.05). The mass of the caecum walls and contents was greater in groups fed Novelose- and bran-containing diets (P<0.005). In all the test groups, pH values were lower in the intestinal contents (P<0.001), and caecal concentrations of acetate (P<0.001), propionate (P<0.05), butyrate (P<0.005) and total SCFA (P<0.001) were higher. The lowest concentrations of steroids were found in rats fed the autoclaved flour. In the other test groups, more bile acids appeared in the caecal (P<0.001) and colonic contents (P<0.005), as well as in the faeces, at week 6 (P<0.001). The highest bile acid excretion was found after feeding bran-containing diets. In the intestinal contents of all the test groups, more primary bile acids (P<0.001) appeared than in the control group. The excretion of steroids increased within the experimental period. Using extrusion technology, dietary fibre-rich oat-based products, which have beneficial physiological effects in rats, can be produced. Oat flour and bran are excellent sources for the preparation of directly edible oat products. Their nutritional properties can be further improved by the addition of resistant starch.

Abstract

Several regulatory bodies have approved a health claim on the cholesterol-lowering effects of oat β-glucan at levels of 3·0 g/d. The present study aimed to test whether 1·5 g/d β-glucan provided as ready-to-eat oat flakes was as effective in lowering cholesterol as 3·0 g/d from oats porridge. A 6-week randomised controlled trial was conducted in eighty-seven mildly hypercholesterolaemic ( ≥ 5 mmol/l and < 7·5 mmol/l) men and women assigned to one of three diet arms (25 % energy (E%) protein; 45 E% carbohydrate; 30 E% fat, at energy requirements for weight maintenance): (1) minimal β-glucan (control); (2) low-dose oat β-glucan (1·5 g β-glucan; oats low - OL) or (3) higher dose oat β-glucan (3·0 g β-glucan; oats high - OH). Changes in total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) from baseline were assessed using a linear mixed model and repeated-measures ANOVA, adjusted for weight change. Total cholesterol reduced significantly in all groups ( - 7·8 (sd 13·8) %, - 7·2 (sd 12·4) % and - 5·5 (sd 9·3) % in the OH, OL and control groups), as did LDL-C ( - 8·4 (sd 18·5) %, - 8·5 (sd 18·5) % and - 5·5 (sd 12·4) % in the OH, OL and control groups), but between-group differences were not significant. In responders only (n 60), β-glucan groups had higher reductions in LDL-C ( - 18·3 (sd 11·1) % and - 18·1 (sd 9·2) % in the OH and OL groups) compared with controls ( - 11·7 (sd 7·9) %; P = 0·044). Intakes of oat β-glucan were as effective at doses of 1·5 g/d compared with 3 g/d when provided in different food formats that delivered similar amounts of soluble β-glucan.

This really helps me understand why I can put on more muscle lean bulking than going on the mcy Ds diet. It's no were near as gratifying to bulk with clean foods (for my pallet) but the cleaner my bulk the more strength/ mass I seem to put on. I always wondered If it was placebo, or I just didn't have the fat gain from a regular bulk so I appeared bigger.

Oats is a daily staple for a bulk or cut. Often I use a coffee grinder to grind them fine for shakes. I am also a fan of oat meal and cinnamon (cinnamon has the added GDA benefit)

I also notice a difference in energy depending on the carb source I use. This is very interesting! Thank you.

Coffee grinder gets to be a real pain after a while. If only there were some kind of blend that could just be scooped into shakes.

If only there was. I get home from costco with my big box of oats and spend 45-60 mins grinding them into powder and put them in a large ziplock bag with a .5cup measuring cup for a scooper. I use 1-3 scoops depending on my macro needs...

Also there is the texture. Most of the oats settle to the bottom when I put them in shakes. I enjoy the grittiness but it's not for everyone.

I very much dislike the grittiness but it certainly helps when cutting down for me.

Very interesting!

I started using oats in my shakes regularly and even postworkout about 2-3 years ago and haven't looked back.

I also will add a bit of EVOO sometimes when I want extra calories. That is my home made weight gainer. It tastes like a liquid cookie to me!

Would prefer EVCO

I like where your heads at.

You guys will like what i'm working on then.

You have my interest.

Matt any more information ab-oat this?

Seems like a good match for slinsane!

[dsade]

Other than it should be available within 2 weeks?

Yes, this is a perfect preworkout or postworkout, combined with SlinSane (sale perhaps??). It will be a good all-around carb source.

[phantom]

wasnt there something about plcar and polyphenols in this too? and for real-2 weeks!?

There is, Muscle Feast sells oat powder and I can buy oat flour in the grocery store by me. The oat powder I hear is the shiznit and I want to get some for those times I need a slow carb with a shake. Just google Muscle Feast, you will find it DSade.

PLCAR and Polyphenols...yes, those are definitely some of the Basyx.

Its starting to sound like a daily supp, built more around improving physical performance not keeping vits in check lol, so interdasted
