The calories contained in oatmeal are so much worse than rice, but oatmeal contains much higher dietary fiber than rice, so oatmeal can be used to lose weight.

There are three main energy producing components in food, fat, carbohydrates and protein. The specific calculation is:

Calorie=Fat X9+(Carbohydrate+Protein)X4

100 grams of oats contain the three main energy producing ingredients are as follows:

Fat: 6.7 grams

Carbohydrate: 61.6 grams

Protein: 15 grams

Calorie in 100 grams of oats=6.7 X9+(61.6+15)X4=367 calories

The three major energy-producing components contained in 100 grams of rice are as follows:

Fat: 0.8 grams

Carbohydrates: 77.9 grams

Protein: 7.4 grams

Calories in 100 grams of rice=0.8X9+(77.9+7.4)X4= 349 calories

This shows that the same amount of oats is going to be only a dozen calories higher than in rice. However, because oats contain more dietary fiber than more, oats are more satiating. In other words, eat the same full meal, the amount of oats needed to be less than the amount of rice. For example, a person eating 100 grams of oats will be full, but if replaced with rice may require 130 grams or more, and may not be the next meal point and hungry, but also have to add meals. This will naturally result in more calories being consumed, which is not conducive to weight loss.

In addition, oats in the dietary fiber in addition to increase satiety, but also can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, more conducive to the human body defecation, relieve constipation, from this aspect is also conducive to weight loss.
