About Oat bran, cooked
Cooked oat bran expands considerably from its dry form as it absorbs water and becomes a thick, creamy hot cereal. The beta-glucan fiber in oat bran forms a gel when hydrated, which is largely responsible for its reputation for supporting healthy cholesterol levels. In its cooked state the protein and fiber are diluted by water weight, but the actual nutrient content per serving is substantial. Milder and creamier than rolled oats, it pairs well with fruit, nuts, or a spoonful of nut butter.
