3 Reasons to Eat More Oats

Monday, February 10, 2020

Eli’s Granola is based on wholegrain oats – one of the healthiest grains in the world. Oats are rich in fibre, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, as well as being extremely low in sugar.

Oats offer a long list of health benefits – here are just 3 of our favourites:

1. Lowers Cholesterol

Oats contain soluble fibre called beta-glucan which helps to reduce overall cholesterol levels in the body, as shown in this scientific study.

2. Control Blood Sugar

Oats help to lower the blood sugar levels and to control insulin response (investigated in this research), especially in overweight people and those who struggle with diabetes.

3. Weight management

While this may seem like a drastic claim on its own, oats have been proven to increase feelings of fullness. By keeping you fuller for longer, this contributes to reduced calorie intake throughout the day which may promote weight management.

As you can see, there is such a wide variety of health benefits – one more reason to order your Eli’s Granola today!
