Oat Fiber

Our Oat Fiber is 100% Gluten Free. Each batch is tested and found to be without harmful Glyphosate residue.

Oat fiber is NOT the same as oat FLOUR. It is not ground oats. It is made from the fibrous husks of the oat; not the grain. Put another way, oat fiber comes from oats which are generally classified as a grain, yes, but oat fiber is made from the outside husk or hull of the oat which is pure insoluble fiber.

  • Insoluble fibers like oat fiber do not dissolve in water in the body and therefore are not broken down in the digestive tract.  This is why oat fiber does not contribute any nutritive benefits when eaten. This is why oat fiber has zero calories! What this means is that although oat fiber technically has 3 grams of carbohydrate in the form of fiber per teaspoon, those fibrous carbohydrates pass undigested through your body and are passed as waste; just like all other insoluble fiber in lots of other foods. Because of this many people subtract the fiber grams out from the carb count to show NET carbs in the Macro count.
  • Oat fiber’s macros per teaspoon are 0 calories, 0 g fat, 3 g carbs, 3 g fiber, 0 g protein
  • Because oat fiber is pure insoluble fiber, it adds bulk to waste in the digestive system, which helps prevent constipation and keeps things moving. Be sure to drink extra water when consuming.

Glucomannan 

Healthy, gut friendly thickening agent derived from Konjac Root. It is known in Asia as Natures Broom for the intestines. It is a soluble fiber and is known for its ability to absorb water and form a gel-like substance in the digestive tract. This property can help promote feelings of fullness, support weight management, and aid in digestive health.

We prefer to use this natural, zero carb, gut friendly thickener instead of its starchy counterparts in the commercial food space, such as cornstarch, potato starch, wheat flour, rice, tapioca etc.
