WHAT ARE THE PROPERTIES OF LIFE PRO OAT FLAKES?

Power source

Oats are a carbohydrate, one of the main macronutrients from which the body is able to obtain energy.

Provide energy to our body, immediately, as well as act as a reserve for when energy is needed

Its storage as muscle glycogen for energy is used by the muscle, while liver glycogen is transformed into glucose, passes into the blood and is directed to the muscle to be used.

Proteins

Oats are one of the cereals with the highest protein content. In addition, these are characterized by the fact that they contain 6 of the 9 essential amino acids that our body cannot produce on its own. Like the rest of vegetable proteins, they are not considered of high biological value since they lack certain amino acids, so it is recommended to supplement with another protein source.

The type of protein found in greater quantity is prolamines.

It is a great source of various vitamins.

Oatmeal is a cereal that combines the two types of fiber: soluble and insoluble fiber.

HOW MUCH OF OATS SHOULD I EAT?

The oat is a source of carbohydrates. There is no exact amount of carbohydrates you should consume accurate because each person is different, has a different metabolism and how much you may need this macronutrient is individual to each person. Between 40% and 60% of the daily intake can belong to this macronutrient.

Also, it is important to take into account your goals, physical condition and the degree and intensity of physical activity you do.

We can calculate it based on our body weight. Depending on our goals, the amount can vary between 4 to 8 grams per kilogram of weight.

DOES LIFE PRO WHITE CHOCOLATE OATS CONTAIN GLUTEN?

The amounts of gluten in oats are practically nil.

Gluten refers to two proteins found primarily in wheat, barley, and rye.

Oats belong to a different species called Aveneae so their content is much lower. Life Pro White Chocolate Oat Flakes has been processed in facilities that produce gluten-containing products. May contain traces.

Prolamins account for only 5% to 15% of the total, compared to 80% in wheat, and 30% -50% in rye and barley.

When we refer to uncontaminated oats , we are talking about those that do not contain traces of other cereals, and therefore gluten. This cross contamination is difficult to avoid since they are usually processed in the same facilities. 

Legally, a gluten-free product is considered to be one that contains less than 20 ppm.

Life Pro White Chocolate Oat Flakes has been processed in facilities where gluten-containing products are produced. May contain traces.

In conclusion, whether or not to consume oats while being intolerant to gluten will depend on each case depending on tolerance. 

Consultation with a health or nutrition professional is recommended when in doubt. 

DO OAT FLAKES CAUSE SWELLING?

Oat flakes do not usually cause bloating or stomach discomfort in healthy people who do not have any type of allergy or intolerance to this cereal.

If the person is not used to taking whole grains, some bloating may occur associated with a change in diet, increasing the intake of fiber accompanied by cramps or flatulence.

To avoid these symptoms, you can start consuming the product in small doses and gradually increase it over time, that is, gradually until the desired dose is reached.

In this way, the intestinal bacterial flora will begin to assimilate and achieve a balance, which, as a result, will feel good.

Another way to improve your digestion is to soak the oats to denature to some extent the proteins that are difficult to digest and associate it with taking products with digestive enzymes.

HOW TO USE

White chocolate oat flakes are ideal to combine with all kinds of sweet recipes and thus achieve a delicious white chocolate flavor. 

You can add it along with protein shake in masses of pancakes, biscuits, porridge without adding sugar or other sweetener., Or with fruit, nut butters, whole nuts etc.
