What is CardiOat® High Strength Oat Beta Glucan Powder?
Replacing OatWell® Original powder, CardiOat® is a high-strength oat beta-glucan powder containing over 70% oat beta-glucan, making it more concentrated and effective for supporting cholesterol-lowering and promoting overall heart health.
How does CardiOat® compare to OatWell® Original powder?
OatWell® Original powder contained 28% oat beta-glucan, while CardiOat® has more than double this concentration. This means you need a smaller daily amount to achieve the same cholesterol-lowering benefit. CardiOat® provides a 28-day supply, making it a better value and more convenient option than the previous OatWell® powder.
How much CardiOat® should I take daily?
For maximum cholesterol-lowering benefits, take one serving (4.5 grams) of CardiOat® powder daily. It can be sprinkled over porridge, cereal, or muesli, mixed into yoghurt, blended with milk or fruit juice, or used in baking, including bread, muffins, and pancakes. Its versatility makes it easy to incorporate CardiOat® into your everyday diet.
Are there any additional health benefits of CardiOat®?
Yes. CardiOat® contains less saturated fat than OatWell® Original, making it a healthier alternative while maintaining the same cholesterol-lowering properties. Regular use supports heart health, digestive wellbeing, and stable blood sugar levels.
What is cholesterol?
Cholesterol is a fat-like substance produced by the liver and obtained from the diet. It is essential for cell membranes, hormones, bile acids, and vitamin D, which is important for bone health. Excess cholesterol can lead to arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases, including angina, heart attacks, strokes, and circulation problems. LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein) is the “bad” cholesterol that can accumulate in the arteries, while HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) is the “good” cholesterol that helps remove excess. Triglycerides also contribute to cardiovascular risk. CardiOat® has been shown to lower LDL without affecting HDL, supporting overall heart health.
What is oat beta-glucan?

It helps lower cholesterol, supports digestive health, and contributes to stabilising blood sugar levels.
