The main types and varieties of oatmeal - which one is tastier and healthier?

There are 40 types of oats in the world, which are further processed and produced from them oat flakes or Hercules.

In Russia, the most famous are:

• Oat flakes "Extra" No. 1
  They are made from whole grains. They are the largest and most useful in size, as they have useful qualities and contain the largest amount of fiber in the composition.
• Oat flakes "Extra" No. 2
  They are smaller in size than the previous ones. They are made from cut cereals.
• Oat flakes "Extra" No. 3
  These flakes are small and fast-digesting. They are also made from chopped cereals. They are less useful. These flakes are suitable for children.
• Oat flakes "Hercules"
  They have a smooth surface and are not suitable for microwave cooking. They take longer to cook. They are also steam pretreated and are not as healthy as previous types of oatmeal. They are also not recommended for daily use.
• Rolled oatmeal
  These are the same flakes "Hercules", only for their production corrugated rollers are used, which flatten the oats and form a corrugated pattern on it. They have a difference from "Hercules" - they cook faster. But note, they did not become more useful from the steam treatment.
• Uncrushed groats
  This product can hardly be found on the shelves of Russian stores. It is the healthiest one and matches the properties of whole grains. It is used for medical nutrition.

Before you "sit down" on an oatmeal diet, you should consult your doctor!

Not all oatmeal is equally good: different ways of processing grain directly affect the taste and health of the finished dish. We will tell you how to choose the best from a huge assortment of oatmeal.

There is, perhaps, nothing better than oatmeal for breakfast: healthy slow carbohydrates that quickly give a feeling of fullness and become a source of energy for the whole day, a storehouse of vitamins and minerals, a beneficial effect on the digestion of fiber and a whole range of nutrients that support the health of our hair, skin and bones.

By including oatmeal in our diet, we strive to get the most out of it. In order for this to succeed, you need to know at least something about the types of oatmeal and be able to choose the best from them.

In today's review, we will figure out which oatmeal you should opt for.

Why choose oatmeal

Before looking into the benefits of some oatmeal over others, let's try to answer the question of why oatmeal is the main favorite of healthy eating adherents who choose it for breakfast, and not rice, for example, or semolina.

Oatmeal is a champion in protein content (according to this indicator, porridge is second only to buckwheat), it is extremely rich in potassium, magnesium, iron and B vitamins. Nutritionists unanimously say that it is oatmeal that is better than other cereals that can lower cholesterol and blood sugar ...

In addition, oatmeal, due to its high fiber content, will help you to normalize metabolism faster than other cereals, putting in order the metabolism in the body.

In addition to these impressive advantages, oatmeal has something to praise separately: we love it, of course, and for its ease of preparation. You do not need to cook it for a long time, monitor it, and it turns out almost always excellent. At KitchenMag, we highly recommend trying the lazy oatmeal in the jar: it's a wonderful cold summer breakfast that you can eat right after you get out of bed. And by the way, even more nutrients are stored in it thanks to the cold cooking method.

Oat flakes "Extra"

Oat flakes "Extra" are considered the most useful. They are especially rich in fiber, vitamins and microelements. Oatmeal "Extra No. 1" is made directly from whole grains, so these flakes are very large and cook longer than others.

Oat flakes "Extra No. 2" are less useful, but they also cook a little faster, because after special preliminary processing they become smaller in size.

Very small flakes, which are quickly cooked - "Extra No. 3": they are made from chopped grains and are recommended to be included in the diet for those who, suffering from certain diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, avoid eating coarse fiber.

Petal oatmeal

Just like the "Extra" type oat flakes, the petal flakes are made from the highest grade oatmeal. Their main difference from their "oat cousins" is their small size and fast (no more than 10 minutes) cooking time.

Small oat groats are flattened after sifting: this production scheme determines the speed of cooking oat flakes. The fact is that this process facilitates the access of water into the nucleus during preparation (the surface of the nucleoli that have undergone such treatment has a light corrugated impression on both sides).

Due to additional processing, the petal flakes look lighter, thinner, contain less husk and films. They can be easily chosen by anyone who loves to cook quickly and does not want to irritate the stomach lining with rough, unprocessed food.

Hercules

"Hercules" - instant flakes, as a rule, additionally enriched with vitamins.This name appeared a long time ago and was applied to the thickest, largest oat flakes, which were cooked for the longest time, since they were subjected to minimal processing and retained the maximum of useful substances.

It is the Hercules flakes that undergo maximum processing today (separation of bran from the kernel, steaming, rolling), because of this they contain less vitamins and nutrients than oatmeal of the Extra type.

Their main advantage is “instant” cooking: you don't even have to cook porridge, but simply pour boiling water over the flakes. If you are willing to sacrifice benefits for 20 minutes of free time, this type of oatmeal is perfect for you, and besides, you will still get the benefits of this porridge.

Quality criteria

When choosing oatmeal, pay attention to the composition indicated on the package: a real healthy porridge should not contain any flavors, flavorings, and even more so sugar and other sweeteners.

Pay attention to the expiration date of the product: calculate it from the date of production, not from the date of packaging. The shelf life of oatmeal in cardboard packaging is about six months, in plastic packaging - about a year.

Oatmeal packaging should be airtight and opaque, preferably not cardboard (in boxes, flakes easily absorb moisture and can quickly deteriorate) and should not be stored in the light.

If, after opening the package, you find that the flakes are diluted with a large amount of husk, have dark blotches, smell like mold - feel free to throw them away: this product is definitely tasteless and of poor quality.

Caloric content and energy value of oatmeal.

Everyone knows how good it is to eat oatmeal. Especially for breakfast. Let's start by talking about the energy value of this product.

So, depending on the degree of processing of oat grains, the calorie content and nutritional composition may vary slightly. But on average, the numbers are identical.

Proteins: 11-12 g

Fat: 2.9-6 g

Carbohydrates: 53-65 g

Calories: 300-330 kcal

In 100 grams of oatmeal, boiled in water, about 80-90 kcal

As you can see, the biggest run-up is in fats. But we'll talk about this a little later.

There is also such a concept (as you remember), as glycemic index... Who has forgotten what it is, you can reread my article. So, in the table of glycemic indices of foods, oatmeal occupies an honorable position as a product with an average or high degree of GI. It also depends on the degree of processing.

So,

Instant oatmeal (there is an inscription on the package - 1-3 minutes or just pour boiling water)	69-83	high
Long-cooked oatmeal (the label on the packaging: cook for 30-120 minutes)	55	average

There is also such a thing as nutritional value index... On a scale from 0 to 100, it measures how valuable a particular product is for our body in terms of nutrient content.

So with oatmeal, it also depends on the degree of its processing.

Processed groats or flakes, then the index of the nutritional value of everything -

Whole oat grain already-

We figured out the numbers and we already have a certain picture.

And now we smoothly move on to a detailed consideration of what are:

Types of oatmeal

Especially for you, I took photographs of various types or degrees of oatmeal processing.

These are the three varieties that I ended up with at home. But in fact, there are more of them.

So,

• Instant oatmeal. On the package 1-5 minutes. This highly flattened and steamed oatmeal tends to appear flaked. Manufacturers indicate on the packaging: instant oatmeal. There are several subspecies of them 🙂: 1. "Extra-1" -made from whole cereals, they are large in appearance, cook longer from everyone in their class;2. "Extra-2" - made from cut cereals, they are smaller than the previous ones and are prepared faster; 3. "Extra-3" - these flakes are the smallest, made from crushed cereals, they boil very quickly.And even before using them, you can sometimes just pour boiling water and wait 1 minute, that is, you can do without cooking. In terms of consistency, they are the softest and form a delicate gruel, which you really can not chew. Convenient for toddlers and old people without teeth 🙂.
• Oat flakes Hercules. They are thicker in appearance, not as delicate. They require more force to chew than instant flakes. On the package, the cooking time is from 5 to 15 minutes
• Shredded oats. This whole grain, which was not processed or flattened, was only cut into pieces (in half or into 4 parts). You will need to cook such oatmeal from 20 to 30 minutes.
• Oat groats. This is whole grain, not crushed or cut, not processed in any way. Just a grain of oats. It will take about an hour to cook porridge from whole oats.

Useful properties of oatmeal

We all hear from childhood that oatmeal is useful, oatmeal is useful. Well, here's how it is useful, let's look at it.

• Oatmeal contains a number of vitamins (PP B1 B2 B6 B9 E H)
• Oatmeal contains a number of vital macro and microelements, namely: silicon, iodine, potassium, cobalt, phosphorus, magnesium, calcium, molybdenum, selenium, chromium, chlorine, sulfur, sodium, iron, copper, fluorine, boron, vanadium, manganese , zinc
• Oatmeal is able to be absorbed quickly by the body and fight bad cholesterol, which contributes to body fat
• Properly selected oatmeal has an average glycemic index
• Normalizes digestion and prevents gastrointestinal diseases
• Improves teeth and bones
• Capable of improving immunity
• Cleanses the intestines, removes toxins and toxins
• Has a positive effect on the endocrine system
• Prevents cardiovascular disease
• Suitable for the prevention of anemia
• is a good antidepressant, improving overall well-being, mood and energy

How to choose the right oatmeal or cereal. Which oatmeal is healthier?

Without unnecessary prefaces, everyone already understands that the less a natural product is processed by a person, the more benefits it brings to our body. The more refined, flattened and processed the grain, the higher its glycemic index (we considered this at the very beginning). This means the higher the rate of digestion of carbohydrates and their conversion into blood sugar.

Instant oatmeal contains much less protein and fiber. And due to pre-processing, they are converted into light simple carbohydrates with a higher glycemic index. Therefore, think about the need to use this type of oatmeal, especially if you are trying to lose weight.

As we remember from my article on the glycemic index, it is better for health and a beautiful slim figure to focus on foods with a low and medium GI. Only active children, athletes and those who urgently need to recuperate after heavy physical exertion or some patients in various situations are sometimes shown to choose foods with a high GI in order to dramatically increase blood sugar.

Also, when we talk about whole grains, then this is a storehouse of benefits inherent in nature, containing a maximum of useful properties, fiber (which is especially important in carbohydrate foods). And also the richest nutrient and vitamin-mineral composition. It is in this form that oatmeal has more fat content. What I wrote about at the very beginning. On average 5.8-6 g. But these are not the fats to be feared and avoided. On the contrary, these are useful, vital fats for building cell membranes, synthesizing hormones, assimilating a number of vitamins and microelements, and energy.

Undoubtedly, if you are on the right diet, or watch your body, lose weight and keep your figure in shape, then you need to choose just such an oatmeal. Whole grain. I only eat this kind of oatmeal.

Oatmeal is more difficult to find on sale, it is practically a rarity. Look for it on the shelves with cereals, not in the places where oatmeal is placed. On the label it should be written: "oatmeal". Or ask around in the market, by weight.

For my children, I buy Hercules oatmeal, crushed or of Extra-1 class (in case of quick children's breakfasts, when everyone is in a hurry). Fiber is present here, but in smaller quantities. This is enough for a child's body. The degree of industrial processing of these varieties of oatmeal allows you to keep the beneficial properties well. And for children, especially babies, it is more convenient to chew, especially when the teeth have just appeared 🙂.

But for those who are losing weight, afraid to gain weight and control body weight, I would not recommend choosing oatmeal in varying degrees of processing, even Hercules. For weight loss, you need to choose carbohydrate foods that are rich in fiber. But in the crushed grain, it already remains quite a bit ...

Understood?

Now let's talk about

How to properly cook oatmeal to maintain maximum health benefits

Of course, on the one hand, the less we subject the product to heat treatment, the more benefits it will bring to our body, being eaten.

This is understandable, and I have written about this many times.

But what about oatmeal? It seems that they found out that for the benefit and weight loss it is better to choose whole-grain oatmeal. But on the other hand, you need to cook it for at least an hour.

And the oatmeal was poured with boiling water and ate a minute later. Is it more useful?

In the case of oatmeal, the cooking time is not interpreted in this way.

Let's talk about cooking oatmeal for weight loss, as well as when you need the right weight gain.

You should understand that instant oatmeal is flattened, crushed as much as possible, and some varieties go through a preliminary cooking stage - steaming. That is, in fact, they are pre-prepared, only outside your home, and also in production. It's a very rough comparison, but it's roughly like a semi-finished product.

1. So, when choosing oatmeal that requires cooking (if you need to cook for more than 20 minutes), I would recommend pre-soaking it with water at room temperature. Then the grain will be soaked, while retaining all its valuable components, and it will be possible to cook it not so long in time, which will preserve the maximum usefulness. Remember that long-term cooking eats away the nutritional value?
2. If you prefer oatmeal with milk, I would advise you to boil the porridge in water, and only then pour the warmed, not boiled milk into the ready-made one.
3. Kids love sweet porridge. You can put a teaspoon of sugar or honey in a bowl of ready-made porridge, after the porridge has cooled down a little. Sugar is easy for children to use up in their active energy. But for adults, especially those who are losing weight, I would recommend eating oatmeal without sugar, only a little bit of honey is permissible if you really want to 🙂
4. Oil. Butter or olive oil in a bowl of ready-made oatmeal - about 1 teaspoon or a little more, I would recommend putting it for children and those who seek to gain weight and are working on increasing quality body weight. Losing weight will be enough of the fats that make up whole oat grains.
5. Supplements. It is imperative for a variety of taste and the introduction of additional colors for aesthetic enjoyment, not to mention additional vitamins, add all kinds of useful components to a plate of oatmeal: berries, fruits, nuts, grains, spices, you can boiled egg or yogurt. There is also a restriction for losing weight: limit grains and nuts to 1-2 teaspoons because of their fat content.

That, in fact, is all the wisdom about oatmeal that I would like to share with you.

If you have any questions, you are welcome, I will be happy to answer, write!

And delicious oatmeal 🙂 for your benefit, energy and beauty. 😉
