Oat Bran | Meal and a Spiel

I use oat bran for flavor. It’s just luck that it happens to be so good for us.

In one cup of oat bran there are:

14 grams of fiber
16 grams of protein
28% of the daily recommended intake for iron, a mineral needed to build blood
265 % of the recommended manganese, an antioxidant which converts proteins and fats to energy
69 % of the recommended selenium, which is rich in antioxidant properties, considered to be one of the leading minerals in the longevity minded diet, and detoxifies metals in our blood stream such as mercury
69% of the recommended phosphorus, a mineral needed for the strength of bones and teeth
73 % of the recommended thiamine, a B vitamin that converts carbohydrates into energy
