Oats is considered as one of the healthiest grains. From baked goods to skincare products, oats have a high demand due to their various benefits. Being one of Sri Lanka’s most recognised, home-grown brands, Oateo brings some premium, affordable and tasty oats-based products to your table.

What’s great about Oateo Oats is that all the products are milled freshly in their own state-of-the-art facility in Mirigama at Aussee Oats Milling – one of Asia’s largest oats mills. The products are processed using 100% touch-free, automated technology, free of harmful chemicals bringing farm-to-fork products to you.

Here are a few other reasons why you should make Oateo Oats a part of your regular diet:

1.Protection against chronic diseases

Studies have shown that oats have cholesterol-lowering abilities. Oats contain a special fibre called Beta Glucan that aids in reducing blood pressure and controls blood sugar levels in the long run. Additionally, oats are full of ‘phytochemicals’, that are closely linked with cancer-fighting properties. Incorporating Oateo Steel Cut Oats with rice is a great way to introduce oats in your diet.

2.It curbs cravings

Oats are high in protein and good fats which help you feel fuller for longer. It can be as simple as adding some Oateo Oat Flour to your morning Curry-Roti! Eating oats for breakfast can help you keep hunger pangs at bay and also avoid binging on unhealthy snacks.

3.Oats boosts your immune system

Apart from safeguarding your cardio-vascular health, the fibre beta-glucan helps in boosting special blood cells that fight infections. Oats are also a rich source of selenium, zinc - two nutrients that are known to strengthen immunity and ward off infections. Making baked goods like oats cookies, granola or even Kiri toffee pudding with Oateo Instant Oats is a great way of getting oats in without compromising on the taste!

4.Keeps you active and energised

Did you know that oats contain iron and magnesium? While iron helps deliver oxygen to red blood cells, magnesium aids in nerve-muscle functions. Oatmeal is often suggested as a go-to meal for athletes and people looking to maximise their stamina. Not fond of oatmeal? You could try making Oateo’s no-cook, simple, Overnight Oats. All you need to do is add milk or yoghurt to Oateo Overnight Oats and enjoy an energy-rich breakfast when you wake up!
