How much oatmeal should I eat a day to lower my cholesterol?

Question

How much dry oatmeal? Does the oatmeal need to be cooked or can I use it uncooked in a blender shake? Do Quick and Old Fashioned Oatmeal work the same on cholesterol?

Answer 1

a bowl everyday will help for sure.

Answer 2

quick is processed a bit so i think you are better of with oldfashioned.

I dont think it has to be cooked, but i always found it tastes better that way.

I believe the serving size is 1/2 cup dry in 1 cup of boiling water....

Answer 3

if you get sick of oatmeal...try the regular cherios (you know those commercials---may lower cholesterol). Idk i just thought of that
