(Food-Beverage-News.Com, October 21, 2015 ) Taylor, MI -- October 29th is National Oatmeal Day. Oatmeal is an extremely healthy and versatile food that can be enjoyed throughout the day.
Oatmeal provides a bonanza of health benefits. For example, oatmeal's high fiber content helps to reduce cholesterol. Three grams of oat fiber per day, the amount in a one-cup serving, can lower total cholesterol by 8% to 23%.
Oatmeal also contains unique antioxidants called avenanthramides, which may fight the chronic inflammation that contributes to a number of health problems including obesity, cancer, and heart disease.
The beta-glucan in oatmeal is famous for stabilizing blood sugar because it helps to avoid blood sugar highs and lows. So eating a bowl of oatmeal first thing in the morning can keep cravings at bay until lunchtime.
The American Cancer Society recommends eating a high-fiber diet (including whole grains like oats) to reduce the risk of cancer, including colon cancer. A 2007 study published in the International Journal of Epidemiology found that premenopausal women who ate diets rich in fiber had about half the risk of breast cancer as those who ate less fiber.
Oatmeal is also low in calories, which makes it perfect for breakfast, a snack or as an ingredient in baked goods. For example Slick Cups™ includes a recipe for Golden Raisin Oatmeal Bread with the purchase of its Silicone Bread Pan.
