We’ve ranked the most popular cereals from best to worst based on their nutritional value – in particular added sugar, fibre content, salt. Read on to get your day off to a heart-healthy start. 1. Porridge I prefer not to take glass containers with me to go. So, I use a container that’s made for cereal to go. The bottom portion of the container is made to hold your milk. And, the top portion of your container is made to hold your Cheerios™ Oat Crunch Oats ‘N Honey. And, it comes with a spoon as well. You don’t necessarily need a ton of fat in your cereal, as that macronutrient will come from other sources throughout your day. But if you want to make your bowl more satiating, Taub-Dix suggests adding some nuts. They add some healthy fats and a bit more crunch, too. No added sugar muesli contains a mixture of grains, fruit and nuts and the combination will differ between brands and varieties so the amount of oat beta glucans will be more variable than porridge, which is made only of oats. The dried fruit that is added should provide all the additional sweetness you need and will also count towards your five a day but choose a muesli with no added sugar and be aware that many fruit and nut mueslis (especially tropical fruit versions) contain sweetened dried fruit, which means they have sugar added even if it isn’t listed separately on the ingredients. Banana chips are another popular muesli ingredient that will contain added sugars and saturated fats.Opt for brands with five grams or less of sugar per serving. “A good thing to know is that when there’s a lot of added sugar, there will also be a high carbohydrate number,” says Taub-Dix. The closer the sugar number is to the carb number on the nutrition label, the more sweet stuff and less grains there are in the box. So keep sugar under control by choosing brands with about five grams or less of sugar per serving. Wholegrain cereals like bran flakes, malted wheat cereal and wheat biscuits are high in fibre and will also have sugar and salt added to them usually, so avoid adding any more sugar and opt for fruits or berries for sweetness. The wholegrains mean they are high in fibre and so have benefits for your digestion too as well as your heart health. Keep it old school and put your milk in a small crystal jelly jar with a tightly fitting lid. Then, you can put your Cheerios™ Oat Crunch Oats ‘N Honey in your favorite plastic container.

Some people prefer to eat their cereal with yogurt. I do this a lot in the summer when I buy fresh fruit at our farmer’s market.

2. No added sugar or salt muesli

Shredded whole wheat cereal with low-fat milk is the best choice of conventional breakfast cereals, because it doesn’t contain any added sugar or salt, and is high in fibre. Watch out, though, for the kind with fruit fillings, which may contain added sugar, or that are ‘frosted’ as they will almost certainly will have sugar added. Instead try adding fresh fruit such as a banana or berries for sweetness. This presents a huge opportunity for retailers to explosively grow on-the go sales at breakfast which is the biggest meal occasion in the UK.

A good source of vitamins and minerals; A fun part of any balanced breakfast at home or on-the-go; Enjoy with or without your favorite milk Porridge is our top choice for a heart healthy breakfast – when it is made with low-fat milk or water and unsweetened. All porridge oats are wholegrains and they all contain a soluble fibre called beta-glucan, which can help lower your cholesterol level if you have 3g or more of it daily, as part of a healthy diet. (A 40g serving of porridge oats contains 1.6g of beta-glucan.) As well as this, you’ll be getting the fibre from the whole grains, plus there is no added sugar or salt. Firstly we have significantly increased the size of the pots but kept the same price so it’s better value.

Cereals like cornflakes or puffed rice served with low-fat milk – can be part of a healthy breakfast but are low in fibre so not as good a choice as a wholegrain cereal. Adding a piece of fruit will help to balance your breakfast as well as making it more filling to eat. These cereals, and their wholegrain equivalents, usually come with added sugar and salt but also often have added vitamins and minerals which are good for your overall health. Other low-fibre unsweetened cereals (like crisped rice or malted flakes) will be similar from a heart health point of view. Sugar-frosted cornflakes are high in sugar and low in fibre as well as usually coming with added salt. Sugar-frosted flakes are usually nutritionally similar to other sweetened cereals like chocolate rice cereals, or honey-nut coated cereals.Swapping to an unsweetened equivalent, like cornflakes or puffed rice, would be a good first step and add a serving of fruit for one of your five- a-day plus some added sweetness.On those days when I am pressed for time, it’s really tempting to just skip breakfast and grab a coffee as I rush out the door. On a truly bad day, I’ll grab a donut or pastry on the way to work. It never keeps me satisfied until lunchtime. And, I feel bad about skipping breakfast at home. For a ready to eat cereal that is an even more heart-healthy start to the day, swap for a shredded whole wheat cereal or no added sugar or salt muesli (see above) as these don’t contain any added sugar or salt.
