Food: oatmeal vs shredded wheat
Self-tutoring about food: the tutor compares oatmeal (from rolled oats) with shredded wheat.
oatmeal1 | shredded wheat | |
protein (mg/cal) | 37 | 33 |
fibre (mg/cal) | 26 | 44 |
GI2 | 55 | 67 |
1From rolled oats, not instant.
2Glycemic index: lower is better.
I like both shredded wheat and oatmeal (from rolled oats).
Regarding oatmeal, the distinction “from rolled oats” or “old fashioned” is important since instant oatmeal has a different (higher) glycemic index. I am assuming the stove-top, unsweetened oats that take a few minutes to cook at a slow boil are “rolled” oats or “old fashioned oats”.
