Why Is The FDA Raving About Oats & Oat Bran Found In the Appetizer Diet Cookie?
Oat bran is the edible, outermost layer of the oat kernel. Oats are both food and herb. Like whole oats, oat bran contains B complex vitamins, protein, fat, minerals and heart healthy soluble fiber.* Both whole oats and oat bran, when eaten regularly, impact circulatory health.* There are studies that show oats/oat bran impact blood sugar health, immune response and athletic performance. Athletic Performance: Studies show that oats/oat bran favorably alter metabolism and enhance performance when ingested 45 minutes – 1 hour before prolonged endurance exercise( greater than 2 hours) of moderate intensity.* The FDA allows this claim for products containing at least .75grams of oat/oat bran fiber The FDA also states the amount of fiber needed to impact cholesterol was about 3 grams per day. The Appetizer Diet Cookie contains 3.54 grams of whole oats and .82 grams of oat bran which is greater than the 3 grams stated by the FDA. ** You get all that from just one cookie!
