Healthy cereal's

[natty]

Cereal for breakfast is my only treat of the day. Just wondering what low sugar cereal's taste good so I don't have to buy them all to try them? Thanks.

Yea im curious too. Like raisin bran Its got sugar from the raisins but its made from whole wheat.

Watch out for misleading marketing. Made from whole wheat and containing whole grain are two different things. I get organic cereal like Kashi brand cereal. All the ingredients are easily pronounced lol.

Still to much sugar though, I'm looking for something with really low sugar but decent taste. My skim milk alone already has enough sugar as it is.

You've got a few choices...

Fiber one contains aspartame. All-Bran, All-Bran w/extra fiber. Then you've got the dry "everything-free" cereals they sell in blue labelled plastic baggies. Stuff like puffed rice, corn, wheat, kamut, etc.. They are like 50 - 60 cals a cup. There are a few bran-like cereals with low sugar out there too, just check the labels. Visit a GNC or organic health food store. They WILL have it.

Kashi go-lean is probably the best cereal out there. 13g protein, 10 g of fiber per 1/2 cup (im pretty sure thats what it is). Its amazing for you. Try it out.

Do they sell kashi at regular supermarkets?

The protein is all soy. There are better cereals out there if he's looking for quality. However, regarding sugar quantity - kashi doesn't fit. Fiberone easily beats the fiber, and if you visit a healthfood site (there are plenty on the net) then you can easily attain a good quality cereal with the same amount of sugar or less. Sugar is sugar, whether from raisins or brown rice syrup.

Thats for the GO-Lean crunch. I just eat the regular go-lean. That crunch shit is way different in nutritional value than regular go-lean.
