Oatmeal has more calories than rice. Can you really lose weight?
The calories of oats are much worse than that of rice, but the dietary fiber content of oats is much higher than that of rice, so oats can be used to lose weight.

There are three main ingredients in food, namely fat, carbohydrate and protein. The specific calculation method is:

Calorie = fat X9+ (carbohydrate+protein) X4.

100g oat contains the following three main energy-generating components:

Fat: 6.7 grams

Carbohydrate: 61.6g.

Protein: 15g.

100g calories in oats = 6.7x9+(61.6+15) x4 = 367 calories.

100 meter contains three main productivity components as follows:

Fat: 0.8g.

Carbohydrate: 77.9 grams.

Protein: 7.4 grams

Hot intake 100g rice =0.8X9+(77.9+7.4)X4=349 calories.

This shows that the same amount of oats is only ten calories higher than rice. But because oats contain more dietary fiber, oats have a strong satiety. In other words, you need less oats than rice to eat the same meal. For example, a person is full after eating100g of oats, but if it is rice, it may need130g or more, and he may be hungry before the next meal and have to add more meals. In this way, you will naturally consume more calories, which is not conducive to losing weight.

In addition, the dietary fiber in oats can not only increase satiety, but also promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, which is more conducive to human defecation and relieve constipation. In this respect, it is also beneficial to lose weight.
