gastroenterology Gut Health Insight

This porridge is easy on the stomach because the oats turn soft and the milk makes it smooth and soothing. Oats have a bit of soluble fibre that helps keep digestion moving gently, but here the fibre is quite low because the serving has only 20g oats. Since sugar is added, it can give a quick energy spike without doing much for gut bacteria, so a nice tweak is to top it with banana, apple, or a few nuts to make it more gut-friendly and more filling.
