Do you eat oatmeal for breakfast? While it certainly can be a solid, healthy
option, most are heavily processed and absolutely TERRIBLE for you.

For example, I was just at the store and took a look at a brand of "heart-
healthy" instant oatmeal (their claim), the "Maple and Brown Sugar" flavor.

First, there is no maple in it. There is also no brown sugar in it. Instead, it's
packed with artificial ingredients, colors, and flavors. It's also packed with
regular sugar and I've even seen some varieties with the "flavor" gel packets
full of high fructose corn syrup...talk about royally screwing up oatmeal!

This product also has a significantly higher glycemic index than regular "old
fashioned oatmeal" due to it's instant nature where it's been pre-cooked via
high-heat processing. This high heat processing also robs the oatmeal of
many important vitamins and minerals, making it an overall less nutritious
product.

So, if you're going to go with oatmeal, please stay away from the instant,
processed, sugar-laden versions.

Instead, the best choice is plain ol' steel cut oats. While they take a few
extra minutes to cook, it's certainly worth it for the lower glycemic index,
extra fiber, and greater vitamin and mineral content...all while avoiding
all that processed garbage.

Steel cut oats will also leave you feeling fuller, longer, and you'll probably
find that you enjoy the more firm texture and nuttier flavor a LOT more than
mushy instant oatmeal anyway.
