Although cereal is also a grain, the ingredient list of many so-called nutritious cereal and breakfast cereal on the market is quite complicated. The main grains are wheat flour, corn, soybeans, etc. Oats only account for a small part, and some do not contain oats at all. The addition of these refined grains will reduce the nutritional density and dietary fiber of cereal.
China Nutrition Society recommends that the daily dietary fiber intake of normal people is 25-3g/d.. And our average intake is only half.
If you eat this cereal for a long time and mistakenly think that the dietary fiber intake has reached the standard, it is likely to lead to unspeakable secrets. In addition, the protein content of this cereal will be much lower than that of pure oats. Therefore, the protein content will be increased by adding extra soybean protein and whole milk powder.
