Dr. Schlife's High Performance Tip of the Week - “Oatbran: Yes it Works Like Magic!”

Mon, 15 Oct 2007 11:03:02 -0800

Twenty years ago the oat fiber (oatbran) discussion was so controversial that it almost felt like a waste of time every time someone brought it up, because both oatbran advocates and detractors were convinced that they were right. As a clinician practicing in a family practice setting I was fortunate in that I could prescribe oat fiber (oatbran cereal, oatmeal, Cheerios, any good cereal with oatbran added, etc) and then check the blood fats and blood sugar a few weeks later to see if my recommendations were working.

In 99.9% of the cases a high soluble fiber eating style (oats, beans, fruits & vegetables) lowered cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar.) In 2007 there is no debate. It works. What are some specific suggestions to get oatfiber into the daily diet?

Recommendations:

• hot oatbran cereal (fix like regular oatmeal or cream of wheat) Actually tastes like cream of wheat
• oatmeal

• oatmeal with 1-2 T. of oatbran added

• your regular cereal with 1-2 T. of oatbran added

• eat Cheerios (yellow box) or Cheerios with 1-2 T. of oatbran

• add to all casseroles

• add to all baked items

• add to stews and sauces to thicken
