Oatmeal may help lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease. The soluble fiber in oatmeal absorbs a considerable amount of water which significantly slows down your digestive process, this result is that you'll feel full longer, so oatmeal can help you control your weight. Oats contain more soluble fiber than whole wheat, rice or corn. Oatmeal contains a wide array of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants and is a good source of protein, complex carbohydrates and iron. The fiber and other nutrients found in oatmeal may actually reduce the risk for certain cancers.
Do I need to say more?
This morning I had a lovely oatmeal breakfast:
- Gluten-free oats
- Soy milk (unsweetened & organic)
- Fresh strawberries
- Fresh fig
- Almond flakes
- Cinnamon
Have a great weekend! xoxo
