Oatmeal is the perfect meal to start your day because it boosts your energy and has plenty of fiber to keep you full and satisfied. Oatmeal breaks down slowly in the stomach, giving you long-lasting energy. It is also full of water-soluble fibers, which play a crucial role in making you feel full over a longer period of time. Studies have also shown that oatmeal reduces cholesterol, maintains blood sugar levels and fights against heart disease, diabetes, colon cancer, and obesity. www.amazon.com/dp/B07LFKTQHX
If you want to add some powerful antioxidants to your oatmeal, simply throw on some blueberries and raspberries. These delicious fruits are packed with antioxidants that fight against heart disease, cancer, and a multitude of other ailments. Blueberries have also been proven to preserve vision. This powerful fruit rated highest in antioxidants among over 40 fruits and vegetables. www.amazon.com/dp/B07LFKTQHX
What more could you ask out of the first meal of your day? However, oatmeal doesn't just have to be for breakfast. You can use it a couple hours before you exercise to energize your workout. You can even include oatmeal in your smoothies. It is also a wonderful addition to muffins and even as a covering for chicken breasts. http://bit.do/b2s9J
Keep in mind that you must buy the unsweetened, unflavored variety. To spice it up a little, you can use bananas, berries, or milk. The downfall of pre-flavored oatmeal is that it often comes loaded with sugar calories. So, stick to the good stuff. http://bit.do/b2s9J
If you are looking for oatmeal with a little more texture, you can try out the steel-cut oat variety. Although this type does take a little longer to cook, I find that it is well worth the wait. They have a somewhat chewier texture and heartier flavor than rolled oats. Once you try this variety, you may never go back.
If you are having trouble with late night binges, have a bowl of oatmeal instead. This will help squash your cravings. Not to mention, you will be avoiding any junk food or empty calories. www.amazon.com/dp/B07TTB2VCG
If you are looking to get in the best shape of your life, I suggest you alternate your morning meals between oatmeal on one day and have eggs and meat on another. This will put your fat-burning into overdrive. www.amazon.com/dp/B07TTB2VCG
