Proven heart health 💖 in everyday foods
As global health consciousness rises to an all-time high, heart health specifically is important for individuals of all ages, regardless of (non-) existing heart conditions. This because consumers are aware of the link between a healthy heart and a longer life expectancy. An improved physical health and maintaining a healthy diet allows people to be – and remain – more active, which automatically leads to a better quality of life and overall well-being!
Enter Oraftiยฎ ฮฒ-Fit, made from barley, to support consumers on their nutritious journey. Oraftiยฎ ฮฒ-Fit is rich in beta-glucans, which are soluble viscous fibres that thicken consumed food, delaying its passage through the digestive system. This gel with a net-like structure creates a physical barrier, for example for glucose absorption, offering health benefits. Besides that, Oraftiยฎ ฮฒ-Fit is an easy-to-use, affordable and sustainable solution that can be used in many applications. Going from baked goods, wholegrain bread, biscuits, pasta, and all the way to cereals and meal replacers, beta-glucans are an untapped source of healthy nutrition!

Discover the health benefits of Oraftiยฎ ฮฒ-Fit
Our Oraftiยฎ ฮฒ-Fit earned its certification from the American Heart Association. By just consuming 3 grams a day, itโs an easy way to enjoy the following benefits. This because of the naturally high beta-glucan content of 20%, which is significantly higher than other (more conventional) sources of oats/barley that only contain 6-7%.
