Are raw oats digestable

[PINZ]

Raw oats in the blender every morning with whey

I like to add them straight to my protein shakes as well for the added carbs I do this 1 or 2 per day usually breakfast and lunch. I do not like to have too many carbs late in the day.

yes they are, i cant stand cooked oats im miserable when i try to eat them, it takes for ever and i feel like im going to throw up.

Oats have lots of soluble as well as insoluble fiber.
I was under the impression that the soluble fibers are only utilized when the oats are cooked.
I might be wrong, but that's the reason I always cook them.

FWIW I don't think any of you are eating raw oats.

Here's tip. Put one of them in a wet paper towel and fold up the paper towel. Come back the next day and see if it has sprouted. If it has, tell me to stfu. If it hasn't it means you are not eating raw oats so stfu.

after reading about them raw.i put them in a blender to grind up some.added
whey,one banana,one cup milk one tablespoon raw honey blended it all up
raw this time let it sit in the fridge overnight.gotta tell ya that is a tasty breakfast.
i also realized that the nutrients will be saved if not cooked if any are lost from crooking.so im gettin whole food at its best.im gonna eat this as a morming breakfast as much as possible.gets me charged up for any activity.

I have been told raw oats retain the digestive enzymes which is beneficial.

less cooked or processed means more efficient for the body

 

[olazabal]

I actually prefer them raw. Poor some unsweetened almond milk and maybe a scoop of choc protein and it's awesome
