Information
They help control weight. According to a study published in Molecular Nutrition & Food Research, a compound in oats known as glucan reduces appetite by increasing the secretion of the hunger-fighting hormone cholecystokinin. Oats are part of almost every diet. They are extremely suitable for a healthy start to the day.
They reduce blood pressure. Cardiovascular diseases are one of the main health problems worldwide. According to experts, if we eat oatmeal or whole grain bread regularly, we effectively reduce high blood pressure as if we take antihypertensive drugs.
They reduce cholesterol. Oats, compared to other foods, have the most soluble fiber. Soluble fiber has the ability to release a kind of gel when it enters the stomach. This creates a feeling of satiety, because in this way digestion is slowed down. This, in turn, improves blood sugar levels and stabilizes it. Their main function is not only to reduce body fat, but also bad cholesterol levels. Studies show that people with high blood cholesterol who consume only 3 g of soluble fiber per day can reduce total cholesterol by 8 to 23%.
Make the skin more beautiful. A large part of the cosmetics available on the market contains oats. Its beneficial ingredients such as vitamin K, B vitamins, zinc, carotene and others make the skin soft and smooth by removing dead cells. On the other hand, it helps it retain moisture. Many ladies prepare homemade face masks using oatmeal (see a sample recipe here).
Reduce the risk of colon cancer. The risk of developing colon cancer increases when you are overweight, have an unhealthy diet, lead a sedentary lifestyle, etc. Scientists from the UK and the Netherlands have published research data showing that there is a link between the consumption of foods high in fiber (mainly from whole grains and cereals, such as oats) and a reduced risk of colon cancer. According to the study, for every additional 10 grams of fiber, the risk of developing colon cancer is reduced by about 10%. Oatmeal is a healthy food that gives you energy for most of the day. It is rich in protein and carbohydrates and provides the energy needs of your body.
It helps to boost metabolism and it is recommended to eat a small bowl of it 45 minutes before a workout.
Improves the defenses of the immune system. Due to its rich content of beneficial fibers, vitamins, proteins, minerals and beta glucan (natural polysaccharides), neutrophils (the most common leukocyte in peripheral blood) reach the site of infection in the body faster and improve the ability to eliminate bacteria.
Helps you sleep peacefully. We usually consume oatmeal in the morning, and before going to bed a glass of milk with honey. The Scots recommend consuming a bowl of oatmeal in the evening to have a peaceful sleep.
