What it is

Organic oat bran is the outer layer of the oat groat, separated during the milling process. It is a whole grain product, meaning it contains the bran, germ, and endosperm of the oat. It is typically processed by milling or flaking.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add oat bran for its nutritional value and texture. It is often used to increase fiber content and add a chewy texture to foods. Common products include cereals, breads, muffins, cookies, and granola bars.

Health notes

Organic oat bran is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a good source of soluble fiber, which may help support heart health and digestive regularity. The FDA notes that whole grains, including oats, are part of a healthy dietary pattern. JECFA has evaluated oat beta-glucan, a component of oat bran, and found it safe.

Allergen info

Oat bran is not one of the 9 FDA major allergens. However, oats can be contaminated with gluten from wheat, barley, or rye during growing or processing, so certified gluten-free oat products are available for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
