Highly nutritious and versatile, oats have many health benefits. Learn about them and how to enjoy this super cereal.

Underrated for many years by some countries, where it was used only as animal feed, oats have characteristics that give them the title of superfood.

As one of the most interesting complex carbohydrates from a nutritional point of view, it's a great food to include at breakfast and in between meals. See what this cereal can do for you.

Reasons to include it in your diet:

With an enviable nutritional profile, this cereal is an excellent source of energy. We highlight the fact that it strengthens the immune system and helps prevent heart disease and diabetes.

It also has a high fiber content, which means that this cereal regulates intestinal transit, preventing constipation and preventing the proliferation of cancer cells in the colon. It also helps to lower cholesterol levels while reducing blood pressure.

The prolonged release of energy from this carbohydrate and the reinforcement of muscle glycogen make it the ideal choice for a pre-workout meal, race or even breakfast. That's why it's one of the foods of choice for exercise enthusiasts.

It is also recommended for anemia, weakness and chronic fatigue. It is also very useful when incorporated into the diet of pregnant or breastfeeding women, infants and those recovering from illness.

Here are several oatmeal options so you can take advantage of all its benefits:

1. Slimming
2. Regulates cholesterol levels
3. Regulates the intestines
4. Regulates blood sugar levels
5. Controls blood pressure
6. Reduces the risk of colon cancer
7. Anti-inflammatory
8. Energizing

Oats and cholesterol:

It is important to highlight its importance in regulating cholesterol levels. Its composition contains a soluble fiber, beta-d-glucan, which has been considered by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be a component responsible for lowering total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol, if ingested in a daily diet in the proportion of 3g/day of beta-d-glucan (the equivalent of consuming 40g of oat bran or 60g of oat flour). In conclusion, if you want to get rid of cholesterol, this is the right weapon.

There is also scientific evidence of its benefits in reducing the risk of colon cancer, controlling blood sugar levels, regulating intestinal transit and increasing the feeling of satiety.

If weight is a concern in your life, this cereal can help you lose weight. Composed of complex carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals, it is one of the greatest allies you can have in controlling your weight and appetite. As it is a slowly absorbed carbohydrate and a food rich in fiber, it satiates you for long periods of time and helps you maintain a healthy weight.

In addition, it is an excellent ally for controlling food impulses and "unwanted" cravings, since its slow release into the blood means that blood glucose (blood sugar) levels remain stable in the blood.

However, as with all foods, when eaten in excess of your needs and the quantities required, as a carbohydrate with energy value, it can actually lead to weight gain. Therefore, keep your consumption moderate within your daily energy needs.

Nutritional benefits: Although each type of fruit has a specific combination of nutrients, in general, most are a source of vitamins B1, B6, E and folic acid and minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus and iron, among others. The fat in nuts is predominantly unsaturated, a type of fat that helps maintain normal blood cholesterol levels.
