Oatmeal, Cheerios, Shredded Wheat, Fiber One, All Bran, Wheaties, Cream of Wheat, Cream of Rice, Farina, Grits, and Grape Nuts are all pretty decent breakfast cereal choices and some may even assist in fighting heart disease. Take note however, that the Cheerios and Wheaties contain almost 300 mg's of sodium. That's almost 3 times the amount that is in a single serving of potato chips. Some diet tips for cereal: - Steer away from anything sugar-coated. - Avoid tri-colored cereals. - Granola tends to be extremely high in fat, so limit consumption. - Enjoy with skimmed milk, which contains almost 1/2 the calories as whole milk yet still has the same health benefits for your bones and teeth. - Sweeten your cereal with Splenda or Equal to save even more calories. - Be sure to include a fresh fruit selection to enjoy with your breakfast! |
