The best 10 breakfast cereals

Posted on Mar 19th 2007 9:15AM by Brian White

Filed Under: Diet & Weight Loss, Fitness, Men's Health

In a follow-up to my breakfast cereal post from this morning, many of you may be wondering what the top breakfast cereals may be. There is another great list here that has a very good "top-10" list of healthy breakfast cereals, many of which I've seen before (but have never eaten).,

I'm a big fan of the Kashi company since their products contain all natural ingredients -- from cereals to crackers to frozen microwave meals. Now, there are some products this company makes that contain "autolyzed yeast", but for the most part, there are many great food products from this company. Kashi "GoLean" cereal is one of those items -- talk about an excellent breakfast cereal! Add your own natural sweetener in there (just not table sugar) and you've got a very decent breakfast.

Just remember -- you may need to add your own sweetener to these cereals to satisfy that "sweet tooth". Stevia, agave nectar and fresh fruit are great -- and healthy -- ways to do this.

I have been looking for BREX cereal (cooked) Know where I might find it and the company that makes it??

The "Nature's Path" brand has some excellent choices, and their cereal is organic. Their "Flax Plus Raisin Bran" has 11 grams of fiber in a single serving, as does "Optimum Slim."

Also, Trader Joe's markets a store brand cereal that is almost exactly like Cheerios, but is all organic and has 10 grams of fiber per serving.

I was surprised that Kellogs Special K was not listed as it has 10g protein, 5g fiber and 9g net carbs. I enjoy this cereal, just add fresh blueberries and it is yummy. Was it considered for the top 10 cereals?

You totally forgot the Special K Protein Plus , low carb version....very crunchy, sweet, 5gr fiber, 2 gr sugar, 9 gr net carbs...yet very sweet, you can eat dry or wet.
A big part of maintaining my weight loss of 80 lbs on the Atkins.
I take it with me on meetings & trips.

A cereal called Puffin Peanut Butter is really good! I will not eat Special K because it has high fructose corn syrup. The human body can not process hfcs!

I have eaten Go-Lean for years! It is great with light soymilk- and put some berries in for added antioxidants

Uh, I really like Sugar Frosted Flakes the best and the satisfaction I get when eating these delicious Golden flakes with tons of sugar frosting delight my palat SO much, I just feel plain and simply, golly gee swell and ready to go for the rest of the day. Frankly I do not give a darn about the sugar and the high fructose corn syrup, my tummy feels wonderful and Tony the Tiger is actually really cool and also, my mommy never cared if I ate them and also these frosted flakes of golden tummy satisfaction are GGRRREEEAAATTT ! thank you, John H.

Actually, plain cheerios have only 1 gram of sugar per serving, not 6.

rhiannon 3-26-2007 @ 8:58PM

what about fiber one (general mills) and uncle sam's? they are both very high in fiber (14g and 10g per serving, respectively) and have 0g sugar.

I am looking for a cereal (porridge) that we used to get a few years back. It was simply called "Brex). Is it still available and where?
I live near the city of Lethbridge, Alberta.
