Nutritional notes

Oats contain beta-glucan, a soluble fibre with the strongest evidence base of any food fibre for lowering LDL cholesterol. Beta-glucan also feeds Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species in the gut. Banana provides resistant starch and potassium. Cinnamon helps moderate the glycaemic response of the oats.

Nutritional Highlights

Per serving: ~280 calories, 7g protein, 56g carbohydrates, 6g fibre, 3g healthy fats. Rich in beta-glucan, potassium, and manganese.
