How do you perceive dry cereal as a convenient and healthy food?

Very few of the dry cereals are really healthy.  The best ones are the plain shredded wheat varieties, all bran, bran buds, and grape nuts.  All the others have considerably more sugar than we realize, even those such as special K.  Natural granola is usually high in fat.\n\nSo it really does depend on what you need.  If you can tolerate the plain shredded wheat cereals, great.  If you are ok with the amount of sugar and fat in the others, then ok too.  My suggestion would be to read labels carefully with your own nutritional and energy needs in mind, and then make an informed choice.

I know what you mean, I always miss breakfast because I don't feel like I need it, but it's meant to help you and aid weight loss too!!  A healthy breakfast can be anything basically, a good quality cereal (nothing with sugar coating, or choc etc), scrambled egg on toast, yoghurt and banana, toast and marmalade with fresh orange juice.  To be honest, breakfast is probably the easiest meal of the day to create, cos there are so many quick, easy and healthy options.

There are many items that you can eat, such as fruit and yogurt, whole wheat toast with p.b. and chocolate milk. Any type of cereal which has at least 3 grams of fiber per serving. Just remember to get plenty of fiber along with = amounts of good carbs and protein along with healthy fats.

There is a great cereal out there by Kashi.  It has like 13 grams of fiber and 10 grams of protein.  It is a good carb and half of your daily fiber intake.  Basically you want to look for whole grains, not enriched or white (ever!)  Check the ingredients for the type of flour then check the nutritional info for the amount of carbs and fiber.  Make sure there are at least 4 grams of fiber for a bread product.  But really, get the Kashi, it's just so much easier.

Good health in terms of a healthy body can be obtain with good nutrition. Unfortunately the food consumed today no longer have the nutrition it use to have. For the most part, food is processed and obtained at a local supermarket. Its not the same as the food back in our home lands. To acquire better health we must turn to supplementation. Nutritional supplements are the safe guards from degenerative diseases. \n\nVisit malaqui.usana.com for nutritional information.

This has helped me and I got the advice from a colon doctor who follows his own advice:\n\nEvery morning eat a bowl of "All Bran" or "Fiber One" cereal, with some fruit or dried fruit (for taste).  (the above cereals have the highest, by far, of fiber content per serving)\n\nAfter a few weeks of doing this, I became "more regular" and did not have to eat it every day.

We all know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But getting the kids to eat a healthy meal in the morning can be a big challenge, especially when most mass-market cereals are loaded with sugar, artificial flavors and colors. What's a parent to do? The good news is that there is a whole array of kid-friendly cereals available at your local health food store. By using sweeteners such as honey, molasses and brown flee syrup, these natural cereals help satisfy your little ones' sweet tooth in the morning while still offering the benefits of whole grains, vitamins and minerals.\n\nAnd what about moms and dads? Studies have shown that people who eat a breakfast of cereal, milk and orange juice end up, consuming an average of 40 percent more fiber, 40 percent more iron, 54 percent more vitamin A and 38 percent more calcium. Breakfast skippers, on the other hand, tend to make up few nutrients--but lots of calories--over the day.\n\n Here's the problem: the advent of sugary puffs, pops and flakes ruined cereal's reputation. Grains are great food, but once they are rendered into typical breakfast cereals, they can be murder on a healthy diet. Most breakfast cereals contain a deadly quantity of refined white sugar-some as much as 30 percent--often appearing under the guise of corn syrup or other less guilty-sounding names. Some contain as much as 14 grams of saturated fat from palm kernel and coconut oils. And many cereals use refined grains, stripped of their healthy fiber, to say nothing of artificial colors, flavors and preservatives.\n\nHow do you make your cereal more healthy? Choose whole-grain flakes, nuggets or biscuits, with healthier, natural sweeteners like honey, molasses or brown rice syrup.\n\nthe whole truth\n\nThe truth is, whole grains are good food. They contain a wide range of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin E, B vitamins and fiber. They contain inosital hexaphosphate (also known as IP-6), which can prevent the formation of free radicals and may protect against breast, colon and liver cancers. Cereals are also rich in folate, a B vitamin that regulates blood levels of homocysteine, an amino acid that's been linked to increased risk of heart disease, stroke and heart attack. Folate also helps prevent neural tube defects (NTDs) in newborns--several studies show as much as a 60 to 70 percent significant reduction in the incidence of NTDs with folate supplementation. And because NTDs develop only 1'8 to 30 days after conception--before many women even know they're pregnant--women of childbearing years need to be especially careful of this important compound. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations require that all grain products be fortified with folic acid--between 0.43 mg up to 1.4 mg per pound of product.\n\nfiber facts\n\nHow much fiber have you had today? If you're like the typical American, probably less than you should. Recommendations for fiber intake range from 20 grams to 35 grams per day. That's where whole-grain, fiber-rich cereals can play an important part of any diet. High consumption of dietary fiber has been linked with reduced risk of colon, breast and prostate cancers. Fiber plays a role in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease through its ability to reduce blood cholesterol, and in the treatment of diabetes by slowing the absorption of glucose from the small intestine. And its laxative effects are equally important: fiber from wheat bran and oat bran is more effective at increasing fecal bulk than that from fruits, vegetables or purified cellulose fiber.\n\nFiber content varies widely between cereals. Many contain less than one gram of fiber per serving, while others offer as much as 14 grams of fiber. For the healthiest bowl, choose a cereal with at least five grams of fiber. Or if you're having a hard time with the shredded cardboard effect of high-fiber cereals, try adding a handful of super-high fiber bran cer

Fresh fruits and vegetables\nLean meats, fish, and poultry\nFor vegetarians, tofu and dried beans and legumes\nWater instead of soda, etc.\nDon't eat the processed and snack foods.\n\nYou should get plenty of healthy foods that way; you don't need a health food store.

yes, because it increases your metabolism, which burns fat more efficiently. Fruit or whole grain cereal dont add much calories and jumpstart your system.
