It’s time to stop:
Just say no to yo-yo diets
Searching for an effective way to manage your weight to improve your health can at times seem like an exercise in futility. Sure, the latest fabulous fad diets and the newest quick-fix solutions all look promising, but often times the end result is the same: disappointment. If you’re looking for a simple, natural weight management solution, remember these important words: Cerabeta Barley Beta-Glucan.
Soluble fiber slows digestion and increases satiation
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. Cerabeta barley beta-glucan is the all-natural soluble fiber powerhouse.
Cerabeta: The proactive and sustainable approach to weight management and gut health
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 starches 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.
How can Cerabeta barley beta-glucan help my weight management journey?
Boosting GLP-1 release
Boosts the release of GLP-1 satiating hormones in the intestine triggered by the presence of short chain fatty acids (SCFA).
Stimulating
your brain
Stimulates the release of GLP-1 satiating hormones in your brain to help you feel satiated.
Regulating
blood sugar
Cerabeta helps regulate blood sugar absorption by creating a physical barrier in the intestine.
Producing short
chain fatty acids
Nurtures and serves as an energy source to the microbiome in the large intestine through fermentation and production of SCFA, ensuring adequate digestion and preventing constipation.
Cerabeta helps increase satiety by increasing viscosity in the stomach and slowing down digestion and absorption of glucose.

It's easy to add Cerabeta barley beta-glucan into your diet
Did you know?
Cerabeta is a single-ingredient barley beta-glucan fiber supplement, that makes it easy to add 3 grams of beta-glucan into your daily diet.
While you could try and eat whole grain barley or oats every day, an easier way to introduce beta-glucan into your diet is by taking a supplement.
Cerabeta barley beta-glucan is one of the best soluble fibers for helping to manage weight loss because of how effective it is and how simple it is to introduce into your diet.
Cerabeta has a neutral taste and mixes easily in liquids and food, making it a great option to ensure you get enough beta-glucan every day.
Cerabeta is perfect for smoothies, yogurt, baking, sauces and more.

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.
Is there a natural barley beta-glucan supplement to help me curb cravings and increase satiety without consuming lots of carbohydrates from barley or oats?
Yes. Cerabeta soluble barley beta-glucan has been carefully developed to give you all the health benefits to increase satiety to manage weight, without unnecessary intake of excess carbohydrates.
By taking Cerabeta you’ll consume 8 times less barley starch (which would be converted into sugar by the digestive enzymes). This means less calories.
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.
What are Ozempic and Wegovy?
Ozempic and Wegovy are the man-made versions of the satiety hormone GLP-1. Both are prescription medications invented in Denmark that have become popular for weight loss.
Ozempic was initially approved in Canada and the United States as a treatment for type 2 diabetes, but its prescription off-label is now in high demand among people wanting to lose weight.
Wegovy is a higher dosage version of Ozempic that was specifically approved by the FDA for chronic weight management.
While these medications can be helpful for weight management in certain cases of obesity when used alongside lifestyle changes, their long-term effectiveness hinges on weekly injections. This ongoing commitment may not be suitable for everyone's weight loss goals.
Do Ozempic and Wegovy contain a semaglutide?
Yes, their active ingredient is called semaglutide, a man-made version of your natural satiety hormone GLP-1. However, the difference is that this semaglutide does not last in your body for minutes, but for about a week.
How do Ozempic and Wegovy work?
Ozempic and Wegovy work by mimicking a natural hormone in your body called GLP-1, which tells you to feel full when you've eaten enough. Imagine your body has a "fullness signal" (GLP-1) that fades in minutes because clean-up crews (DPP-4 enzyme) and helpers (kidneys) naturally remove it.
Semaglutide in Ozempic and Wegovy is different. It has a special "shield" that protects it from being removed from your body, allowing it to last much longer (around a week) in your blood at a higher concentration than the natural GLP-1.
Helpful tips for weight loss success
Start slowly:
Increase fiber intake gradually to allow your body to adapt. Increasing fiber intake too quickly can cause bloating and gas.
Keep to a routine:
Take your supplements regularly to ensure maximum results.
Increase water intake:
When increasing fiber intake, always be sure to increase water intake as well. This helps to prevent constipation, promote regular bowel movements, and can help increase satiety as well.
Eat more high fiber foods:
Foods high in fiber tend to be lower in calorie density, so they provide fewer calories per gram. By choosing high-fiber foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes, you can reduce your overall calorie intake while still feeling full and satisfied.
