A member asked:
Is it healthy to eat soaked, uncooked steel cut oats? i'm getting mixed messages about the health benefits and difficulties of digesting whole grains.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's ok: Uncooked soaked oats, like in muesli, are ok. Cooking breaks down cell walls, turns it into porridge, released mucilages and soluble fiber; makes it easier re: digestion, but not likely an issue with normal GI tract. Arguably some of the undigested carbs might increase gas (fermented by bowel bacteria).
