The secret is soluble fiber

Improve your heart health with soluble fiber

Cerabeta for cholesterol

A well-kept secret for lowering your cholesterol is to improve your fiber intake. Soluble fiber—often called the new protein—has been proven to reduce LDL (bad) levels in your blood stream. Specifically, beta-glucan soluble fiber from barley has proven to be one of the most effective fibers at naturally lowering cholesterol. Cerabeta barley beta-glucan is the all-natural soluble fiber powerhouse for cholesterol reduction. 

Improve your gut health with soluble fiber

Cerabeta for gut health

Soluble fiber dissolves in water and is fermentable (prebiotic) in your digestive system. It feeds the good bacteria (called gut flora) in your gut to help balance your gut microbiome (a small ecosystem in the digestive system). Specifically, beta-glucan soluble fiber from barley has been linked with numerous prebiotic benefits that improve the health of your microbiome and overall gut health. Cerabeta barley beta-glucan is the all-natural soluble fiber powerhouse for improving gut health.

Cerabeta for
weight management

Feel fuller longer with soluble fiber

Soluble fiber has beneficial effects on glycemic control. Cerabeta is a supplement rich in barley beta-glucan, a soluble fiber which helps improve postprandial glucose metabolism within two hours after a meal. It helps improve blood sugar levels after you eat, by preventing fluctuations in energy and focus caused by rapid absorption of glucose into the bloodstream. Cerabeta barley beta-glucan is the all-natural soluble fiber powerhouse for controlling blood sugar.

Cerabeta for prediabetes and type 2 diabetes

Take control of blood sugar with soluble fiber

An easy, budget-friendly way to naturally suppress appetite is through soluble fiber intake. Soluble fiber slows digestion and increases our satiation hormones (the feeling of being fuller longer) associated with weight loss. Specifically, beta-glucan soluble fiber from barley has proven to be one of the most effective fibers for naturally managing weight loss. Cerbera barley beta-glucan is the all-natural soluble fiber powerhouse for weight management.

Cholesterol facts:

Barley beta-glucan, the best beta-glucan

  • Beta-glucan is found in the cell walls of barley, oats, mushrooms, and fungi.

  • But the type of beta-glucan that’s effective at lowering cholesterol can only be found in barley and oats.

  • Barley provides the highest concentration of beta-glucan by volume.

Weight management and gut health facts:

The proactive and sustainable approach

  • The key bioactive compound found in Cerabeta is barley beta-glucan soluble fiber, which works through 2 main mechanisms.

  • Fermentability: In the large intestine, it acts as food for beneficial gut bacteria, promoting a healthy microbiome. This breakdown produces short-chain fatty acids that fuel colon cells and trigger the production of satiety hormones like glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1).

  • Viscosity: This slows down digestion, prevents rapid blood sugar spikes by delaying the conversion of starchy foods into glucose by the enzymes, and it acts like a barrier in the small intestine, allowing for a gradual release of glucose into the bloodstream.

  • These combined mechanisms make Cerabeta an excellent way to support weight management and a healthy gut.

Diabetes facts:

The viscous gel advantage

  • Cerabeta barley beta-glucan forms a viscous gel in the gastrointestinal tract. 

  • This gel slows down the digestion of carbohydrates, leading to a more gradual release of glucose into the bloodstream.

  • This mechanism helps prevent postprandial hyperglycemia, a common challenge for individuals with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.

What are statins and how do they relate to cholesterol?

When first diagnosed with high cholesterol, your physician will often offer an ultimatum: lower your cholesterol naturally over the next few months or they’ll prescribe statin medications. Statins are pharmaceutical drugs specifically designed to lower LDL cholesterol. While effective, they often result in severe side effects such as muscle pain, headaches, dizziness, liver damage, and much more. Most people seek to avoid taking statins as the negative side effects are so severe. Instead, they try to lower their cholesterol naturally by making changes to their diet, such as barley beta-glucan.

Can you explain in detail what GLP-1 is and how it relates to weight loss?

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a natural hormone secreted by L-cells in the gastrointestinal tract which signals you to feel full when you've eaten enough. GLP-1 helps maintain stable blood sugar levels by stimulating insulin secretion when blood sugar rises, slowing down stomach emptying, and signaling the liver to conserve its energy stores (glycogen).

GLP-1 is also produced in our brain after we eat, as a physiological regulator of appetite and caloric intake. Imagine GLP-1 as a tiny switch in your gut and brain that tells you "I'm full!". When GLP-1 levels rise, we feel satiated and less likely to overeat.

The presence of the GLP-1 satiating hormone usually lasts for only a few minutes in our blood depending on what we eat. This is partly because an enzyme (DPP-4) breaks down GLP-1 hormone as a natural process in our body, and our kidneys also help eliminate GLP-1 from the bloodstream.


Is there anything I can do to naturally produce the satiating hormone GLP-1 in my body?
Yes. Consuming protein and  soluble and fermentable fiber can be powerful tools for weight management because they work together to increase satiety.

Protein triggers the initial production of GLP-1 in the small intestine. Beta-glucan in barley, a soluble and fermentable fiber, enhances GLP-1 production once it reaches the colon, providing a sustained and prolonged release of this satiating hormone.

 This combination keeps you feeling fuller for longer, and at the same time nurtures your body and your microbiome, preventing muscle loss and gastrointestinal problems.

How does barley beta-glucan compare to psyllium husk?

Psyllium husk is a type of soluble fiber that comes from the Plantago ovata plant’s seeds and is primarily grown in Asia. Psyllium does naturally lower cholesterol but it’s not as effective as beta-glucan. 7g of psyllium husk is required daily to lower cholesterol compared to beta-glucan's 3g per day. Additionally, beta-glucan can lower cholesterol to a much greater extent. Psyllium can lower cholesterol levels by up to 7.4% whereas with beta-glucan you can expect to see a reduction of up to 24%.


Is Cerabeta recommended for low FODMAP diets? 

Yes, Cerabeta is suitable for low FODMAP diets. Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, and Polyols (FODMAP) are short chain carbohydrates. They can be poorly absorbed in the small intestine, leading to digestive symptoms in some individuals.

Low FODMAP diets have gained popularity over the years to provide benefits for people with digestive issues like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Low FODMAP diets work by reducing certain foods that contain specific carbohydrates that can cause irritation and problems in the gut.

Studies have shown that 76% of IBS patients that followed a low FODMAP diet have improved their symptoms.


I understand how Cerabeta can help people with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. But are there weight-management benefits as well?

Fiber can be your friend if you are living with diabetes or prediabetes. Along with helping to maintain your glucose metabolism, the fiber in Cerabeta can help with weight management, which also helps with diabetes. Studies have shown that a high dietary fiber intake has beneficial effects on metabolic control for type 2 diabetes.


Can Cerabeta help me avoid sugar spikes so I can feel fuller longer?

Soluble fibers like barley beta-glucan in Cerabeta, create a gel-like substance in the intestines. This lining slows the digestion of carbohydrates and sugar, resulting in a slower and more consistent absorption of sugar into your bloodstream. A slower, more consistent digestion of glucose will help you avoid the feeling of “sugar spikes” between meals, and will leave you feeling fuller for longer, which may help you eat less throughout the day to control your weight.


What about things like sleep, exercise and a balanced diet?

While incorporating Cerabeta barley beta-glucan into your diet is a great step, it's crucial to maintain a healthy lifestyle that includes a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and adequate sleep.

Is barley beta-glucan approved?

Barley beta-glucan has been extensively researched and approved by health agencies like Health Canada, the FDA and the EFSA. That is why we carefully crafted Cerabeta, the natural fiber health supplement.
