Of course, it depends on the type of oatmeal you buy. While there are some unhealthy oatmeal packets on the market, your breakfast will be free of added sugars, artificial flavors, and hydrogenated oils if you simply buy a container of plain old-fashioned oats and make a bowl yourself.
Oatmeal can be a really filling, nutrient-dense breakfast, but it’s important to choose quality oatmeal.
Most oatmeal packets have a lot of added sugar and flavorings, which can dilute the nutrients and prevent you from getting all the benefits of oatmeal.
