00:00When it comes to weight loss, there's no doubt that oatmeal can definitely be your

00:17best friend.

00:18And I'm going to explain to you the many different healing medicinal properties that oatmeal

00:26has when it comes to your health.

00:28It's just not going to help you lose weight, it's going to help your heart, your intestines,

00:33your blood sugar levels, your insulin levels, your energy.

00:39There's just so many positive things that you should really understand.

00:44And the benefit of this fiber is that it will help you feel full and satiated.

00:48These beta-glucans mix with water and it thickens the food in your intestines.

00:54This will slow down digestion and help you feel satiated for so much longer.

00:59And here's the big problem.

01:01Those excessive sugars, processed refined sugars, is what increases hunger.

01:07It increases our ghrelin levels, which is our hunger hormone.

01:11It decreases our leptin levels, which is our satiety hormone.

01:16But oatmeal slows digestion down.

01:20It allows sugars to go into the cells slowly.

01:24It prevents the spike of insulin.

01:27It's the excessive insulin, the hormone insulin, that allows our body to continue to store

01:33more fat.

01:35And if you can lower and keep your insulin levels down, you're not going to store the

01:39fat and this is going to help you lose weight.

01:43And the fiber in oatmeal will help your heart and your cardiovascular system.

01:48It will help prevent clotting.

01:50It reduces your cholesterol levels.

01:53The beta-glucan binds to the cholesterol-rich substances in your body and moves them through

01:58your digestive tract until they're eventually flushed out.

02:02So if you have high cholesterol, you need to start eating more soluble fibers.

02:06And when it comes to oatmeal, it's filled with this soluble fiber.

02:11This is what binds to that water and allows it to swell in your system, giving you satiety

02:16and having that fullness so you don't overeat.

02:20I will guarantee that oatmeal will do wonders for you to increase that peristalsis within

02:26the intestines.

02:27And the outer layer of oats, oat bran, is full of fiber.

02:30Oat bran helps move the bowels.

02:33It will help get rid of the excess waste.

02:35It will help reduce bloating.

02:36It will make you feel tremendously lighter and healthier.

02:40And oats have a group of antioxidants called avinanthromides.

02:44They bump up the body's nitric oxide levels and nitric oxide opens the blood vessels.

02:50It dilates them so more blood can get through those blood vessels much easier with less

02:55resistance.

02:57That takes a tremendous load off the heart and that will lower your blood pressure.

03:02And nitric oxide also acts as a bronchodilator by relaxing the bronchial smooth muscles that's

03:08linked to the respiratory system as it also helps reduce inflammation.

03:13And those oats are known to help fight cancer.

03:15The antioxidant avinanthromides help slow cell mutations and according to research the

03:21high fiber content in whole grains helps reduce insulin resistance which is one of the culprits

03:27in the development of colon cancer.

03:29And the beta glucans in oatmeal also stimulates the functioning of the immune system as those

03:34immune cells help fight bacteria and viruses.

03:37And oatmeal can also get you to sleep quickly so you can sleep deeply through the night.

03:43Oatmeal contains tryptophan an amino acid that gets converted to serotonin and then

03:48into melatonin.

03:49Melatonin is a sleep hormone that regulates our body's sleep-wake cycle.

03:53With the combination of magnesium in oatmeal along with melatonin this will definitely

03:59help you get a good night's sleep.

04:01And there are three types of oatmeal and the first one which is the most healthiest are

04:06steel cut oats.

04:08And it's made by chopping the freshly harvested oat groats with a steel blade.

04:13And steel cut oats are the best oats for you when it comes to losing weight as well as

04:19the health of your body.

04:21Why?

04:22Because they have the lowest glycemic index they are the least processed.

04:27And because of that this slows down the absorption of sugar into the cells.

04:32It takes longer for sugar to digest balancing those sugar levels preventing insulin from

04:37spiking and what does that mean?

04:40That means you're not going to crave that hunger.

04:43It's going to keep you full longer.

04:45You're not going to crave those sugars.

04:47And rolled oats are your second best.

04:50This is a little more processed they're steamed and flattened in the flakes making them easier

04:54to cook and digest.

04:55Now these rolled oats do have a higher glycemic index which is not as good as steel oats but

05:00this is your second best bet.

05:03So that all the nutrients in oatmeal are fairly similar although steel oats have a

05:08little higher protein and a little bit less carbs.

05:12Now when it comes to cooking these rolled oats you can cook them a lot faster in about

05:18three to four minutes where steel oats may take 20 to 30 minutes.

05:22And the last type of oatmeal is instant oats.

05:25They are similar to rolled oats but they are steamed for longer and flattened thinner so

05:31they can cook even faster.

05:33So yes they are definitely processed more because you can cook them real quick.

05:39But the problem with instant oats is that they're filled with sugar.

05:45There's many different flavors that they add.

05:46They're hidden sugars.

05:47You need to be very very careful with this because even though you think you're taking

05:52in something healthy you're doing something bad for your blood sugar levels.

05:56You're going to get that rebound.

05:58You're going to crave more sugars because you're going to get a rapid rise of glucose

06:03in your bloodstream.

06:04And there is such thing as the oatmeal diet.

06:07It has helped millions of people lose many many pounds.

06:10But I'm not going to stress a diet.

06:13I'm going to stress you to start eating healthier as well as doing some type of exercise to

06:20increase your metabolic rate.

06:22And stay away from those flavored oatmeal.

06:25They're processed, they're refined, they're filled with sugars and bad fats.

06:31And be aware of what you're putting in your oatmeal.

06:35Make sure you're eating plain oatmeal.

06:38Be creative.

06:40Chia seeds, flax seeds you could put in there.

06:42Put your berries in, your strawberries, your raspberries, your blackberries, your blueberries.

06:48You could put avocado in there if you want more fiber.

06:51Use your almond milk.

06:53Put your nuts, your almonds, your walnuts.

06:56It's limitless.

06:58You can do anything you want.

07:00Remember, you can eat your oatmeal for breakfast.

07:04You can eat it for lunch.

07:05You can eat it for dinner.

07:06It's just not for breakfast only like people think it is.

07:11So I promise you, if you start eating healthy oatmeal, your cholesterol levels are going

07:17to come down.

07:18Your digestion is going to get better.

07:20You're going to prevent heart disease, prevent clogging within those arteries.

07:25It's going to lower triglycerides.

07:28Your liver is going to function better.

07:30So many things are going to happen that's positive in your body.

07:35I challenge you.

07:37So I wish you only good health.

07:40So eat your oatmeal and start it immediately so you can reap those health benefits.
