A bowl o f oatmeal is nutritious.
Quick or old fashioned oats contain
carbohydrate, protein, 7 B-vitamins
and vitamin E. They also supply 9
minerals —iro n , calcium, magne­
sium, sodium, potassium, phos­
phorus, copper, manganese and
zinc.
A bowl of oatmeal is rich in fiber.
An ounce ol oats contains 0.3 grams
o f fiber Although estimates range
from 4 to as high as 20 grams, 5 to 7
grams seems to be a range accepted
by the scientific community as the
amount of fiber needed daily. It has
been established that fiber provides
dietary bulk and aids in the digestive
process.
A bowl o f oatmeal is a whole
gram product. Oats contain virtual­
ly all o f the nutrients present when
they arc growing in the field. The
“ whole grain" is available for utiliz­
ation. The germ is a concentrated
source o f nutrients. It contains the
embryo or seedling plant and is a
source o f vitam ins, minerals and
protein. The endosperm is a store­
house o f protein and carbohydrate
designed to feed a living, growing
plant. Il's a source of energy for ev­
eryone who eats whole grain oats.
The bran is the outer covering of the
grain that protects it and is one o f
the best sources o f fiber.
