Nutrients in oat flakes
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates supply energy to the body. Oat flakes contain carbohydrates which are slowly broken up in the body. The body feels saturated for a longer period of time and no abrupt drop in performance is perceived.
Minerals
Minerals are intensely involved in the regulation of water balance, energy metabolism and bone development. Oat flakes are rich in magnesium, phosphorus, iron, zinc and copper.
Proteins
Proteins are essential components needed by the body for metabolism, the formation of muscles as well as the production of vital enzymes and hormones.
Vitamins
Vitamins protect the body from external influences. Oat flakes are rich in vitamin B1, vitamin K and vitamin B9, and also contain vitamins B2, B5 and B6.
