Best Gluten Free Cereals

Best Gluten Free Cereals as rated by a nutritionist.

Starting the day with something nutritional is a good way to meet your daily kilojoule goals and keep cravings under control later on. One of the most important considerations when selecting a cereal is fibre. Adequate amounts of fibre may help with blood sugar control by ensuring a slow release of the energy stored in your cereal. Fibre is also a regulator of digestion; some people may find it helps with bowel function.

Celiacs can enjoy gluten-free porridge which is made up of a healthy mix of ancient grains like millet, quinoa, amaranth and brown rice flakes. Added nuts and seeds mean there is plenty of fibre.
