got coerce into taking this by my mum and fiancee.

Link to product: http://biogrow.com.my/Oat-Bran-Powder-Oat-...l-products.html

Is this good?

Side effects so far for me: diarrhea like symptoms when I visit the loo. But not really diarrhea just that faeces seems watery than usual. (sorry for the gross-ness no other better way to put it )

Mum says is normal, eat this oat will clean your inside fats/oil. Means after taking this powder best to avoid oily foods? I'm confuse. (will definitely have the above symptoms after taking oily/fatty foods - usually on the next morning/noon)

Dont like taking a product seems like a laxative/detox. I don't really know what's the side effect of this and starting to doubt it.

But looking at its ingredients (made from 100% oats) I'm just scratching my head thinking how could any of it go wrong?? It would be way better than taking Herbalife (which I did in the past) since its ingredients in F1 is questionable.

Any thoughts, especially from users of this product?

I've tried it for a month

Hmm....never have any bad comment bout it but I think it is good as with few spoons of it, you will get your daily gluton supply.

One thing bad is the price of it.

But i never experience diarrhea like symptoms like yours.

I used to mix it with warm black coffee. Without sugar and creamer.

How often did you visit the loo? Mind me asking? Is it easier when u *ahem* do it (defecate)?

Yesterday I visited the loo 2 times (in the day) - wasn't really diarrhea just that lots of water to it.

I'm avoiding really oily foods to see if it improves (last few days had abit of siuyok and KFC guess that's why yesterday I went through quite bad)

I'm an above average guy in terms of BMI.. overweight actually.. wonders if that adds to the side effects of it... cleaning my inside of all that bad fatty stuffs? (reminds me of detox - used to do that like once a month)

I would mix it with Milo (use warm water like half cup, then mix the rest with lukewarm water, then +1 spoon of BG22). Tastes good. Drinking it raw is really tough - hate the taste of it, leaves a bad mark on the tongue.

Thanks for your feedback! Hope to hear more...

Hmm....well, all the while I don't have the problem when I going big in the toilet. So, no I didn't see any different before and after I take the Oat.

But then my experience can't give much information because I just tried for 1 month. Maybe I should try it for longer period to actually see the result or different. But one thing is that I feel it's a good product.

Honestly I've recommanded to people but most of them gave me some kind of look, and told me those are bullshit. The conventional Quarker Oats is the best.

I mean if you are on strict diet and being watching your calories intake closely, this oat is good for you. IMHO

k i'll continue it for a month or 2 to see how my body takes it.. maybe needs some time to adjust.

btw, you quitting smoking? I was once a ex smoker too (not that heavy 1 pack a week light cigs)

i tried quitting 4-5 times too but all failed, finally succeed with the help of ecigs, this brand (didnt dare try cheap brands one scare not effective and side effects to health):

and also helped from my fiancee cos she really wanna see me quit... hope this will encourage you not to give up quitting! all the best!!

you are going to the loo more often because if its high soluble fiber content.

i dropped about 4kg, with no change in diet, happily whacking siuyuk and KFC

Anyone interested of getting it at lower price?

selling price at RM72.90 for 480g. i can get cheaper price.

kindly pm me if you are interested.

Lol, same happen to be. I am bulking, then i took this product. Damn, one day 2-3 times like diarrhea. Straight stop after i finish this.

Can't la, evryday 2-3 times. Badly affected my daily routine.

Hi. Still have stock oat bg22? How much is it.

saw one selling for 58.80

approved by KKM and FDA, nothing to worry about

it's just oats anyway, already known to be healthy food

Check the list of ingredients on the label. What did it list?

It is written that KKM and FDA allow using those health claims on oat products, but did not state in that poster image that the product itself wss individually reviewed and approved by them.

ah, missed that. thanks for the clarification. well, either way, i dont think oat would do any harm.

Yes, the oat itself usually won't.
That is why I asked him the other ingredients, as oatmeal products usually contains only oats without any additives, ie check Quaker Oatmeal ingredients on the labeling.

what's the difference between this BG22 and other oat bran products out there, such as Pristine Premium Oat Bran (http://www.pristinecereals.com/pristine_oats.html)? In terms of beta glucan/soluble fibre, i think both products are quite comparable, even though price wise, Pristine is sooo much cheaper

I have the same experience also diarrhea 3 times per day

Could let me know where did you get it from or whom?
