Whole Wheat Cereal

Whole Wheat Cereal

Studies show that eating cereal for breakfast can help peel off the pounds. Make yours whole grain and you’ll be one step ahead of the game thanks to their filling fiber. When it comes to filling your cereal bowl, this Kashi Autumn Wheat Cereal is an especially smart pick. In one 2-ounce bowlful you’ll snag an impressive 50 grams of whole grains and 6 grams each of satiating fiber and protein. With 180 calories per serving, it’s low in calories, but not so low that you’ll be scrounging for a snack by midmorning. And it has zero sodium. Did we mention that we love its short ingredient list of organic whole grain wheat, organic evaporated cane juice, and natural flavors?
