Description

Its nutritional value consists mainly of glycosides, proteins, polysaccharides, vitamin B1,and choline. Fiber content of over 80% compared to less than 15% for oat bran and 10% for wheat bran.
The husk is composed mostly of a fiber called hemicellulose which is a complex carbohydrate found in whole grains, fruits and vegetables.
Hemicellulose is undigestible, however, it is partially broken down in the colon and feeds the friendly intestinal flora.
