Yes , this pharmacy just opened a few months back and I find the prices reasonable. Near the OUG market, situated in the row of shops behind Public Bank.
Cosway also sells barley BG (beta glucan), claims to be more effective than OBG and much cheaper. Haven't tried it yet. On offer this month.

I bought is for RM 56 per can at a pharmacy in Bangsar.

Caring had a booth at Empire Shopping Gallery in Subang Jaya. A middle aged lady had her blood tested and bought 3 tins for RM 170. Her cholesterol was about average. Evidently she has been taking Biogrow OBG for a few months and has stopped taking her medications. Last week at Midvalley at the Caring booth, I also bought 3 tins for the same price but this time Caring was giving free comprehensive blood test at Pantai Hospital. Seems quite a good deal which also included liver test. Costs about RM 50. Although my office pays for my blood test, I felt it was quite neccessary for me to buy the stuff because my cholesterol was too high (my cholesterol ratio is 4.49 mmol/L)
I too had loose bowels and stomach cramps. I googled and found that I should have gradually increase the amount I take every morning. The lady at the booth just told me that it is normal to have diarrhea and something about cleansing the body, which is sure nonsense.

looking at all the comments about diarrhea, I think I've nothing to complaint about sad.gif . I go to do "biz" abt 3-4times, and most of the times usually not a pretty sight laugh.gif. have been using for half year di, when tested at 3mths, no change in blood cholesterol level, still high. So went back to pharmacy, and they mentioned that I should take like 4 scoops a day doh.gif How lah? Now the loo is like a frequent fixture in my roster...don't know how long can this go on. I think i'll go for another blood test after I finish with this can, and see how. If still no change, I'll drop it. Just the loo part that is a major hindrance to continue...

I think you may be mildly allergic to gluten in the oats. Google it up or see this url - http://drcrableobgyn.com/health-library/he...OCHWID=hw192213. I struggled through 1 tin for more than 1 month. The worse was when I took 1 spoonful of Oats BG with a big bowl of barley (high gluten) . At noon I took 1 piece of papaya (always a problem for me) and 4 kiwi fruits. By later afternoon I was bloated with gas, abdominal pain and having diarrhea.
No wonder some people seem to sail through the day with nary a problem.

I'm still trying to experimenting with the Oats BG and trying to eliminate all other gluten foods except rice. I also allow myself amaranth, arrowroot, buckwheat, corn, flax, millet, potatoes, quinoa, sorghum, fermented non GMO soybeans, tapioca, or teff.
Maybe you can try to spread out your oats intake to 3-4 times a day.

I think you will have to adjust your intake of Oats BG and stay clear of high fibre food. Don't stop your Oats BG. Just be patient about getting the results. At the same time reduce your red meats and fried food (high transfat) & get plenty of exercise.

There is no short cut. Otherwise it is statins which has bad side effects. According to http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles...on-statins.aspx, :"these drugs can actually increase your risk of heart disease because they deplete your body of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), which can lead to heart failure. Statins lower your CoQ10 levels by blocking the pathway involved in cholesterol production -- the same pathway by which Q10 is produced" So how? Cannot win lah unless you stuff yourself with the expensive CoQ10.
