Beta Glucans are polysaccharides of D-glucose monomers linked by β-glycosidic bonds. Beta Glucans are a diverse group of molecules that can vary with respect to molecular mass, solubility, viscosity, and three-dimensional configuration. They occur most commonly as cellulose in plants, the bran of cereal grains, the cell wall of baker's yeast, certain fungi, mushrooms and bacteria. Some forms of beta glucans are useful in human nutrition as texturing agents and as soluble fiber supplements, but can be problematic in the process of brewing.

Oat is a rich source of the water-soluble fibre (1,3/1,4) Beta Glucan, and its effects on health have been extensively studied the last 30 years. Oat Extract 70% Beta Glucan are the dietary fiber being recognized by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to be able to reduce a disease risk. Oat Extract 70% Beta Glucan can be highly concentrated in different types of oat brans.
