![]()
Oats are packed with healthy nutrients; fiber, protein, magnesium, potassium, and omega 3 fatty acids among other things. More importantly, oats contain zero added sugar if you pay attention when shopping and read the labels (steer clear of the instant types). They can also be eaten in different ways, which makes them a bit of a “Power Food”, as we say here at Wave. Whether topped with almond butter, banana and honey or fresh fruit, raisins and cinnamon, the world’s your oyster when it comes to getting creative with breakfast.
