"Beta Glucan" rang a bell. I did a Google Advanced Search and found that Red Badger posted an article last July 24 about Beta Glucan that says it helps regulate blood sugar and aids weight loss.

One Type of Fiber Could Have Weight Loss Benefits Similar to Ozempic.

Research on the gut microbiome has triggered a 'revolution' in nutritional science, and in the last few years, dietary fiber has become the "new protein" – added to foods in abundance to feed our gut and boost our health.

A recent study on mice, however, suggests not all fiber supplements are equally beneficial.

A form that is readily found in oats and barley, called beta-glucan, can control blood sugar and assist in weight loss among mice fed a high-fat diet.

Researchers at the University of Arizona (UA) and the University of Vienna say it is the only type of fiber supplement they tested that decreased a mouse's fat content and body weight within 18 weeks.
