Buy Nature's Path Organic Smart Bran, Psyllium & Oatbran Cereal, 10.6-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) Now
Smart Bran by Nature's Path delivers 51% of the RDA for fiber--what a great jump-start to your day! I would not eat this cereal, even with the fiber advantage, if it didn't taste so good---in fact, I would eat it even if it didn't have 13 grams of fiber per serving.I am a middle aged women and for the past ten years have had what is called Irritable bowel syndrome. I have been to Drs and have tryed all kinds of medications. I have been eating this cereal almost five days a week for the past five years and I no longer have bowel issues. It has made me regular and no more constipation or bloating.I was very pleasantly surprised when I first tried Smart Bran. I love its crunchy texture and great flavor, all the more because it is low in sodium and low in sugar without resorting to using Aspartame. The fact that all of the ingredients are organic is a definite health plus. I have been eating Fiber One original (the "twigs") for years because it seemed to be the only really high fiber cereal (14 grams)and was not loaded with sugar in one form or another. It is sweetened with Aspartame, however, contains corn oil, guar gum and a few other less-than-desireable ingredients, and is primarily corn bran. Smart Bran is composed of Oat Bran which has been shown to help reduce high cholesterol. I haven't heard anything about corn bran in that regard. Smart Bran also contains psyllium in a very tasty form & works great for keeping the lower digestive track functioning efficiently. I mix a rounded quarter cup of Smart Bran with fresh fruit and cottage cheese for my breakfast most mornings and find it's a great way to start the day. Buying it through Amazon in a 6 pack saves me more than $1.50 per box over local supermarket prices, and I don't have to worry about it being out of stock. I highly recommend Smart Bran, and look forward to incorporating it in my baking as well.
