 What's so good about oats? 

The key ingredient in all rolled oats is beta-glucan. What's that? It's a soluble fibre that turns into a gel in your digestive tract and is a great help in lowering cholesterol and blood glucose levels. They are also a nutritious source of plant-based protein, B vitamins, antioxidants such as polyphenols, and minerals including magnesium, zinc, selenium, copper, manganese and phosphorous.

So what are the health benefits of rolled oats?

The high beta-glucan content of oats has been shown to:

•  lower the risk of heart disease by binding with the cholesterol in your digestive tract, aiding its elimination;
• reduce the risk of diabetes by helping lower blood sugar and improving insulin sensitivity; 
• encourage a healthy gut environment by the prebiotic fibre feeding the beneficial gut bacteria, inhibiting the undesirable bacteria and minimising inflammation; 
• help weight management through the high protein and fibre content;
• increase energy and health through slow-release of the high amount of protein;
• help lower blood pressure by the polyphenols promoting nitric oxide production which in turn relaxes blood vessels, improving blood flow.

Are oats gluten-free?

Yes, oats are in fact gluten-free! But they do contain a protein "avenin" which has a similar structure to gluten, but is tolerated well by most gluten-sensitive people.

What is the difference between Jumbo and Quick Oats?

Jumbo oats are thicker, firmer and larger flakes compared to the thinner smaller flakes of quick oats. That's because jumbo oats are made from whole oat groats that are steamed and rolled, whereas quick oats are steamed, rolled, then cut into smaller flakes. 

Should you use Jumbo or Quick Oats?

Jumbo oats are chewier and take longer to cook.
Quick oats are softer and smoother and much faster to cook.

Jumbos are great for porridge (and creamier if soaked overnight), muesli, biscuits, etc.
Quick oats are good for a quick breakfast, baked or cooked products where recipes need smaller faster-cooking oats.
