all products suggest the beta glucan needed per day..right?
*
All products are required by law to have at least 3g of beta-glucan per serving if they want to display a labelling that the product helps lower cholesterol.
However, the average product contains around 3.6g per serving, with some at 3.2 to 3.8.

Any amount above 3g is already sufficient, but in this case, it won't hurt for a little more.

Kordel's oat 35, last for 26.5 days, RM59.9= RM2.2/day
live well oatley 20's (3 boxes last for 30days, buy 2 free 1=60 sackets,2 per day),RM69.90=RM2.33/day
Bio Life Barley BG 25 for 34 days,RM49=RM1.44
Bio grow BG 22, last for 26.5 days,RM58.90=RM2.2/day

Biolife seems the cheapest/most economic among all

Biogrow BG22 is the first of its kind in the market la... i drink on and off and feel healthier. Not convinced to change to other brands at the moment as I'm happy with the results.

Difference of 80 cents a day is not much... coz once got high cholesterol and need further treatment will really burn a hole in the pocket with the medical fees.. u choose.

I have started taking bio grow BG22 for about 2 weeks now. Main purpose is to hope to lower my cholesterol. It's too soon to say whether it works but one thing is for sure, it's certainly making me eat more healthily because of it.

The oats are easily soluble, even when mix with cold drinks like milk, and it tastes just fine. After some time, i realize that the oats drink will turn into a thicker layer of mould and i guess it'll stay that way in our stomach. As a result, i tend to eat less thereafter. Like some consumers have mentioned earlier, i do experience more frequent toilet passing motion after taking Bio Grow, about 2-3 times a day. Initially it was more like a semi-diarrhea but after few days is back to normal. I believe it has a detox element, which is excellent.

Amazingly i realize I felt leaner and have trimmed bits of my stubborn belly fat, which is an unexpected bonus! I think both the detox and eating healthy contribute to this unexpected result, which is great.

Bottom line, i will measure my cholesterol again after 2-3 months and hopefully has a positive outcome.

By the way, i bought it at a Pharmacy at Taman Megah, PJ (near Fatty Crab) and costs only RM55. I believe you can get this discounted price at many pharmacies now.

well written.. exactly how I experienced it too. smile.gif

Assuming these 3 products are of about the same weight:
1. Kordel oat 35
2. Bio grow bg22
3. Bio life Barley 25

With Kordel and Bio Grow you need 2 scoops (assuming the scoop size is the same for all 3 products) to get the daily requirement of 3 grams of beta glucan whereas you only need 1 scoop of Barley 25 to give you the 3 grams of beta glucans. If Kordels and BioGrow lasts you 26.5 days how did you arrive at the figure of 34 days for Barley 25? Shouldn't it be 2 X 26.5 = 53 days?

Just looking at the claims on their products it seems Barley 25 has twice the potency of the competition as well as being the most cost effective which makes it the best choice.

Hi,

Would like to update my cholesterol status after consuming 2months continuously... I'm glad that it works! My cholesterol (ESP bad cholesterol) has gone down significantly.

Absolutely love it, & the taste too! The only minor setback is the higher daily frequency of visiting the loo....:-(

awesome.. knew it will work!

yea visiting the toilet is troublesome but in the long run it's better than getting stroke or heart disease etc.

u can reduce the amount once the bad cholesterol has went back to normal. Another thing is also to watch out the diet avoid too oily/fatty foods.

and do yearly checkup for cholesterol (best to do a comprehensive blood test).. always keep it in check.

I buy the German rolled oats at a cake supply shop for less than RM5/kg. I cook oatmeal for my evening meal to allow for a bowel movement in the morning. Don't ask me about my cholesterol readings because I've never had it checked.
