Nature’s finest foods 

Oats were used as the very first breakfast cereal well over three hundred years ago, and in those far off days whole grain cereals were the major source of nutrition, providing a healthy diet for our ancestors. The company Mornflake Oats was founded in 1675, and began milling in Cheshire, UK, where they are still based today. Most people now realize that the health-giving properties of oats are as important today as they ever were.

Mornflake Oats are distributed in Barbados by SBI Distribution Inc., on the Spring Garden Highway, a division of Barbados Shipping and Trading Company Limited. One of nature’s finest foods, Mornflake Oats offers excellent value for money combined with a high nutritional content. Drawing on over 300 years of milling experience, Mornflake select only the finest oats, which are then carefully milled to retain all the endosperm, bran and grain that are a natural part of the oat kernel.

Mornflake Oats are also one of nature’s healthiest foods, for they contain one of the highest levels of soluble fibre, which is regarded as essential for digestion and healthy living.

Mornflake Oats also release energy slowly, due to the combination of high fibre and complex carbohydrates. This means that they provide energy throughout the day, maintaining a sense of well-being and helping to avoid those snacks which so many dieters cannot do without.

Delicious and versatile, Mornflake Oats are low in calories and in saturated fat, and may help reduce cholesterol when part of a low-fat diet. They are a good source of vitamin B1.

100% natural, Mornflake Oats have no added sugar or salt, chemicals or adhesives.
