Why does oat bran form the sense of fullness?

The stomach stretches, when it is full, the nervous branching in it gives the information to the brain about satiety, says Dr. Pierre Dukan and we stop eating any more.

The famous silicon stomach ring is created on this base, which challenges this sense .Thus, the stomach may be full with only some bites  and the brain will be deluded that you are already sated enough.

How does oat bran manage to delude the stomach?

The solubility of the fibres makes wonders. Only some tablespoons of oat bran are enough to fill the stomach. As we remembered, fibres of oat bran increase its volume to 40 times. If suppose that 3 tablespoons of oat bran increase the volume 25 times, it makes about a kilogram (2,2 lb.) which is a mass occupying the quite big part of the stomach, says Dr. Pierre Dukan.

Oat bran must be taken at the start of each nutrition with much water! Because in other cases, consumed without water, it won’t increase its volume and the desirable effect of fullness won’t be achieved.

That’s why Dr. Pierre Dukan recommends drinking much water every day to have the effect from the diet.
