Bowel Movements - How many?

[ddjd]

Wheat bran is rather a bulking agent. It doesn't weigh down my stomach unlike carrots and combines very well with white rice. I believe that washing and boiling it helps to reduce oxalates.

Would washing and boiling it reduce the betaine content?

Interesting , I didn't know it contains betaine

So it must work best for people who already have a regular gut transit.

Not necessarily. Even though it's maybe technically correct that it's bulk forming, I would say it can prevent the bulk/constipation feeling you can get with excessive soluble fibers or starch. For me wheat bran is very good at preventing the feeling of incomplete emptying

It's also quite high in oxelates as well apparently. Obviously not a good thing.
