FAQ
Cheerios are a classic breakfast cereal made from whole grains. They're not only low in fat and calories but also affordable and packed with essential vitamins and minerals.
Oatmeal, particularly the slow-cooked kind, is generally healthier than Cheerios. Both are made from whole oats, but the difference comes down to processing. Unprocessed whole oats, like those in steel-cut oatmeal, take a while for the body to digest.
The issue is that lots of us don't realise that some cereal bars can be similarly high in sugar and fat – because we don't think of them in the same way as chocolate, we may be tempted to reach for them more often than we should. It's fine to enjoy cereal bars as part of a healthy, balanced diet.
