Difference between oat bran and oatmeal

Oat bran is milled during the production process, resulting in the loss of nutrients in the outer layer, which makes the bran's nutritional content decline, and does not have as high calories as oatmeal.

Oatmeal is higher in nutrients, has not processed the outer portion, retains the whole grain intact, and is more satiating.
