QuakerHot Oat Bran Hot Cereal, 16 Ounce Box

I have been eating Quaker oat bran for many many years but for a long time I have not been able to find it in the grocery stores. It's a slightly lower carb/higher fiber alternative to oatmeal, and oats are a great source of an important insoluble fiber called beta glucan. It tastes essentially identical to oats but has a different texture. The texture is more like cream of wheat. I also learned recently, that in the raw state, it has a lot of resistant indigestible starch which is converted to digestible starch upon cooking. Resistant starch doesn't cause a blood sugar rise and is treated by the body like fiber. Since I learned this, instead of cooking it in the morning, I prepare it the night before by mixing 1/2;cup raw oat bran with 1 1/4 cups soymilk in a converted glass bowl and refrigerating it overnight. In the morning, I add frozen berries and microwave gently until warm, but to no more than 140 degrees F to prevent conversion of the resistant starch to starch. With nuts added, it makes a filling breakfast that keeps me full for many hours. I can usually skip lunch, or have an apple during the afternoon, then have dinner in the evening. I am so happy that Amazon carries it and hope Quaker never ever stops making it.

Hodgson Mills is out of business, so I needed a replacement. Quaker's Oat Bran Cereal fits the bill. Great stuff!!!

This product is delicious. It has great health benefits and it’s also gluten free. Great value for your money.

Hard to find this in local grocery stores, so glad to order it. The packing bag had product which leaked out of the box.

Simply the best oat bran available, and it's a very healthy alternative to typical cereals! I have enjoyed Quaker Oat Bran for breakfast since the early 80's when blind-test medical research showed that it was even better than oat meal for cholesterol reduction. It has the best taste to me of all of the oat bran products that I've tried. I will have some of the stone ground oat bran cereals infrequently when I'm unable to locate Quaker's, but it just isn't as tasty to me. My recollection is that some questionable articles, later proven incorrect, did have a significant impact on the sale of oat bran after it was popular in the early 80's. I read the original research articles and stayed with it. I track by cholesterol, have tested it with and without the oat bran, and, for me, it does lower it. Great product and recommended!I wanted to add that I find it even better when healthy items are added to it. My current personal favorites are blueberries and cinnamon. It's also excellent with mixed fruit. A tip worth remembering is to soak your bowl in water after enjoying the oat bran or wash it soon. Otherwise the residue hardens in the bowl and is more challenging to remove.

Ordered this as it has a good amount of fiber. Needed to add more fiber to my diet as I was having elimination problems. A bowl of this each morning has easily taken care of the problem. Have it with a small pat of butter and a little milk. Very tasty! So glad I tried thisFor my problem.

quicker to eat than oatmeal (I have a problem with lumps) and good for ya.

I like this hot cereal because it is not slimy like regular oatmeal. No stores in my small town carry it, so I was very happy to find it on Amazon.
