Oats

In my last article, I have talked about a skincare product which has this as a main ingredient.

Oats are one of the cereals which brings a lot of health benefits. It is good for our gut, the heart, skin and hair, too! I eat this for breakfast at least once a week. Since I can’t drink milk alone, I try to mix in some cereals.

I am aware that this is rich in fibre and it has omega as the one which helps lower cholesterol. Believe it or not, I was surprised to know that by doing all the blood tests I have discovered I have high cholesterol. They said it is also hereditary or it runs in the family. And I blame my parents for that LOL Just kidding. Maybe when I was younger I didn’t know I had lots of bad cholesterol and ate a lot of unnecessary food. I am really glad that now I have become aware of what I should avoid or maybe lessen when it comes to food items that I eat.

According to my research, oats have vitamin A and vitamin B and lots of minerals. And also.. it is rich in protein! So for all of you guys who are building muscles, maybe you are already aware of this, oats are good for you. For vegans and vegetarians this is already a part of their diet.

Now I realize this is why a lot of bars, snacks and drinks has oats as an ingredient and I don’t really mind that. This will also help if you want to loose a little bit of weight because eating oats will make you stay full for a while.

This is also gluten-free, so for people who suffer in consuming gluten, then this is safe for you to eat..

Other benefits:

• provides energy
• anti infiamatory
• anti ageing because of protection from free radicals
• antioxidant
• helps in digestion

These are the reasons why oats are also being used as an ingredient for skin care, hair care products.

Oats come in flakes, grains, biscuits, flour and even milk so you have a lot of choices on how to consume this cereal.

Just like all of the other food items that I discuss here in my blog, I always mention a disclaimer that, you have to know your body, consult your healthcare provider because this might be an allergen for you. Althought it is very rare that oats can be an allergen, but at least be mindful.

I hope you like this article. Let me know your thoughts! Do you like oats? Is this part of your diet? I would love to hear from you. Thank you for reading. See you on my next article! Ciao!
