So the topic of today is oatmeal. And I used to love oatmeal. I used to have it every single day as a breakfast.

And I was told that it was healthy. And so today I want to share three things that you probably have never heard before relating to oatmeal.

And the reason I'm bringing this up is because if you're consuming oatmeal

for health reasons you may change your mind after watching this video now of course i'm not telling you

not to consume oatmeal i just want to give you some additional information to think with that is not

necessarily easy to find when you type oatmeal on the internet.

And I'm not going to even cover what you probably already know, the sugary type of oatmeal

and these little packets, this instant oatmeal, tons of sugar, you know, you already know

that's really bad.

I'm going to talk about the oatmeal that's actually not sweetened, but it's interesting,

even in the packets of instant oatmeal that's actually not sweetened, but it's interesting, even in the

packets of instant oatmeal that has tons of sugar, apparently you could still have a little

claim there that says that it's heart healthy. I mean, you'll see articles out there that will say

that oatmeal is one of the healthiest foods that you can possibly eat. It's considered a superfood.

It will lower your cholesterol. It will help your diabetes and blood sugars. It will make your heart healthy. So the first thing I want to

dive into, I'm going to put a bunch of studies down below so you can verify what I'm saying is true

is some studies done on oatmeal in relationship to blood sugars and insulin as well as cholesterol.

Now, when you read these studies, it does definitely say that there is a significant improvement in cholesterol as well as blood sugars.

Okay, both. And that's pretty exciting. I mean, like, wow, because if something

is cholesterol-friendly or it's blood sugar-friendly, then, you know, sign me up. But if you actually

read the studies, it will say there's a significant decrease in cholesterol and blood glucose

compared to the control. Now, what does this mean compared to a control? What is that all about?
