Nutritional values

Oatmeal - so simple and yet so effective. The water-soluble dietary fiber beta-glucan contained in the oatmeal directly benefits health in two ways: It reduces blood sugar levels by delaying or reducing the insulin response. In addition, the plant fibers bind bile acids in the intestine, creating a complex that the body excretes. Thus, cholesterol is needed again to produce the bile. The level of cholesterol in the blood decreases. Also, the protein contained in the 5-ingredient protein shake keeps the blood sugar level stable and thus provides a longer feeling of satiety.

If you prefer to avoid soy products, you can of course also use oat drink or another milk alternative. The 5-ingredient protein shake is great for using leftovers. Here it does not matter at all if already ripened bananas are used. They even give an extra portion of sweetness!
