Glutinous barley is a type of barley and is known to contain water-soluble dietary fiber and beta-glucan. β-glucan is believed to adsorb excess cholesterol in the intestine and promote its excretion from the body. Brown rice has been referred to as a complete nutritional diet, and unlike glutinous barley, it contains insoluble dietary fiber. It is said that intake of both insoluble and water-soluble dietary fiber is effective for relieving constipation.
