Why this recipe is good for you
This recipe is especially rich in Fibre, Gut health and Calcium.
- Fibre — Fibre supports healthy digestion, helps steady your blood sugar, and feeds the good bacteria in your gut.
- Gut health — A healthy gut supports digestion, immunity and even mood. Fibre-rich and fermented foods — like yoghurt, oats and legumes — feed the good bacteria that live there.
- Calcium — Calcium helps build and maintain strong bones and teeth and supports normal muscle and nerve function — important throughout life and particularly around menopause.
A make-ahead breakfast: wholegrain oats soaked in yoghurt for fibre and gut-friendly goodness, topped with berries.
