HEART HEALTH
Sustagrain is a tool for heart-health formulation needs; in fact, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved a heart-health label claim for soluble fiber from barley foods. Soluble fiber from foods such as Sustagrain, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease, a disease associated with many factors. A serving of Sustagrain supplies 6 grams of the recommended 3 grams or more B-glucan soluble fiber from barley necessary per day to have this effect.
BETTER DIGESTIVE HEALTH, IMPROVED GLYCEMIC INDEX
Sustagrain has among the lowest GI of commercially available grains, and its benefits extend beyond the heart. Soluble and insoluble fiber, when part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, are key for maintaining digestive health, and increased satiety.
FUNCTIONALITY TO FIT YOUR FORMULATION
From bread to breakfast bars, muffins, snacks, rice mixes and more, wherever whole grains and high-fiber are needed, Sustagrain is the superior choice. Sustagrain’s other functional benefits include high water absorption, which can increase end- product moistness and slower staling in baked goods. Sustagrain also pairs well with high protein products, delivering additional value to today’s health conscious consumer.
