Gluten Advice:

Pure oats are naturally gluten free. However, they are often contaminated with wheat. If you are sensitive to gluten it is best to check that the oats you are buying are certified as ‘pure’ or ‘gluten free’.

Tip:

If you normally add sugar to porridge, try a sprinkle of ground cinnamon instead; it will give a little natural sweetness and has been shown to help balance insulin and blood sugar levels.
