Loaded with healthy nutrients, oatmeal can head off heart disease and reduce the risk of erectile dysfunction. Rich in both soluble and insoluble fiber, oatmeal can also be useful in a weight-loss regimen. 

Samuel Johnson, one of England’s greatest men of letters of the 18th century, once defined oats as “a grain, which in England is generally given to horses, but in Scotland supports the people.” Despite the shade Johnson threw at both oats and the Scots, oatmeal has proved itself a popular and nutritious breakfast choice far beyond the British isles.

In fact, the health benefits of oats and oatmeal were highlighted in a 1997 Food and Drug Administration ruling that these foods can lower the risk of heart disease when they are included as part of a low-fat diet. And, as we’ve pointed out many times before in this blog, what’s good for the heart is good for the penis, and vice versa.

A Popular Comfort Food

On one point, Johnson’s quote about the lowly oat remains true today. It’s a grain that is grown primarily as a feed for livestock, according to EverydayHealth.com.  However, in areas with a temperate climate and thus ideal for the cultivation of oats, oatmeal has won popularity as a comfort food that’s not just for breakfast anymore.

Oatmeal is loaded with both soluble and insoluble fiber. Oatmeal’s soluble fiber is transformed in the body into a viscous gel that stabilizes blood glucose levels and reduces cholesterol, says EverydayHealth.com. Its insoluble fiber promotes intestinal health and helps to prevent constipation.

Can Help in Weight Loss

Carrying around too much excess weight can put a strain on the heart and increase a man’s risk of developing erectile dysfunction. But eating a fiber-rich food such as oatmeal helps to give the stomach a feeling of fullness, reducing the temptation to eat more. This makes it a wise dietary addition to any weight-loss plan you might choose to adopt.

Oatmeal is also rich in antioxidants, which combat the inflammatory effects of oxidative stress. Among the antioxidants unique to oatmeal are avenanthramides, which are phytonutrients that help to lower blood pressure, according to MedicalDaily.com.

Oatmeal Is Gluten-Free

For those sensitive to the gluten that is found in most cereal grains, the good news is that oatmeal is gluten-free. Even those with celiac disease can enjoy a steaming bowl of oatmeal with no fear of dietary repercussions.

A cup of oatmeal contains roughly 150 calories, says HealthEating.org. Other nutrients in a single serving of oatmeal include four grams of fiber, half of which are soluble and half insoluble, and six grams of protein. Oatmeal is also rich in iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, selenium, thiamine, and zinc.
