Canadian oats are renowned for their health benefits and quality. 

They are high in fibre and contain both insoluble and soluble fibres (beta-glucan). 

Studies suggest consuming foods containing beta-glucan can help lower cholesterol, improve heart health, 

manage blood sugar levels, lower the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, improve satiety, and stimulate 

the immune system.

Oats are also rich in essential vitamins and minerals, including calcium, potassium, magnesium, and a range of B vitamins. 

Oats can be processed into a variety of different food products. 

The first step in oat processing involves dehulling which involves removing the tough outer layer (hull) surrounding 

the oat groat (inside portion of the kernel). 

The groat is then kilned (steam heat treatment) and processed into different products like steel cut oats, oat flakes, and oat flour.

Rolled Oats are groats which have been steamed and toasted prior to being flattened by heavy rolls. Rolled oats, 

often called old-fashioned oats, are slightly thicker than quick or instant oats but still cook fairly quickly. Rolled oats are 

eaten hot (oatmeal) or cold (overnight oats) and often used in granola bars and muesli.
