*Tips: 

• Always choose organic oat products, as conventional oats are often sprayed with glyphosate. Glyphosate is a pesticide that disrupts our gut microbiome. 

• Look for gluten free if needed. Oats are often contaminated with gluten during processing.  Oats may not always be safe for those with celiac disease, so please consult with your healthcare provider to see if they are right for you.
