  • The heat used in processing is key to the difference, high heat can affect nutrients. Steel cut oats are denser and have both soluble and insoluble fibre that is a boon to regular, healthy shits.
    Being lower on the glycemic index shouldn’t be discounted either considering modern eating habits.

  • Heat can affect things like vit C but are not likely to significantly affect fibre levels... Not to disparage benefits of intact grains, but given how much more of a pain they are to prepare, if processed oats make people eat them instead of cereal, probs a good thing imo.
