Oats
If you choose to eat minimally processed oats with virtually no added sugar, your digestive health should be in check. For instance, Flahavan’s Quick Cook Steel Cut Oats are an excellent way to start your day with. They provide plenty of minerals and vitamins, and most importantly, the right amount of dietary fiber.
Matthew Kadey MSc, RD says that the main dietary fiber found in oats, beta-glucan is actually prebiotic. Studies suggest that diets rich in this type of prebiotics increase the beneficial bacteria found in the gut. The Harvard School of Public Health also noted that consuming oats on a regular basis leads to reduced inflammation.
