Many bodybuilders eat oatmeal for breakfast because of its fiber content and slow carb release.

According to the June ’11 Bottom Line Health, steel-cut oats are the best choice. Why?

“Steel-cut oats offer an extra benefit over rolled oats (instant, quick and regular) by having a lower glycemic index.

So if you’re dieting hard, choose the steel-cut variety for a lower insulin response—and less potential for fat storage.”
