I'm participating in the General Mills Cereal Spark!
Did you know General Mills announced a commitment to further reduce sugar in cereals advertised to kids under 12 to single digit grams of sugar per serving. The company has already been reducing sugar in cereals while increasing key nutrients, such as calcium and vitamin D, and providing whole grain.
I didn't have a clue and this is something I am interested in because there is so much sugar in the breakfast foods now days.
Did you know that ready-to-eat cereal eaters consume less fat, less cholesterol and more fiber than non-cereal eaters? Cereals also deliver important vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients, making cereal a top source of key nutrients in children’s diets.
Other cereal benefits:
Other cereal benefits:
- Ready-to-eat cereals, including presweetened cereals, account for only 5% of sugar in children’s diets.
- Ready-to-eat cereal is the No. 1 source of whole grains in a child’s diet today.
- More frequent cereal eaters tend to have healthier body weights and lower Body Mass Index measures.
I know when I'm running late I will grab some cheese and crackers or something fast and it seems I am hungry again in no time but if I take the time to eat a healthy breakfast like cereal...hot or cold that I feel fuller longer. That's a good thing because that way i'm not running into a store and grabbing a candy bar or a bag of chips!
