Description

Quaker Quick Oats are a type of processed oatmeal specially designed to cook in less time. They are characterized by being pre-cooked and cut, which allows them to dissolve faster in hot liquids, making them ideal for preparing nutritious breakfasts like porridge or smoothies in a matter of minutes.

Oats are a cereal originating from Eurasia, traditionally cultivated in temperate climates. Quaker is a globally recognized brand that offers high-quality oatmeal, standing out for its easy preparation and smooth texture.

Properties: Quick oats retain all the nutritional properties of the whole grain, being an excellent source of soluble fiber, especially beta-glucans, which help reduce cholesterol. In addition, they provide protein, B-complex vitamins, minerals such as iron, magnesium, and zinc, and are low in saturated fats. Their consumption is beneficial for digestion, blood sugar control, and promoting a feeling of fullness.

In different Hispanic American countries, oatmeal may also be known as instant oatmeal, pre-cooked oatmeal, or simply quick oats. However, the term "Quaker" is often directly associated with the brand that guarantees its quality and quick cooking time.
