How to use oatmeal for becoming beautiful
- Whenever you eat oatmeal, make sure it is whole grain. This means that it contains the germ or the shell, which is where the largest concentration of nutrients lies. A lot of oats are refined. Use oatmeal in smoothies in the mornings, with fresh papaya and almond milk. This is wonderful because almonds, too, are rich in antioxidants, and are great at absorbing nutrients with the oats and papaya.
- Oatmeal is a rich source of plant-based proteins. This helps keep muscles strong and regenerated, and is perfect for athletes or individuals that have physically demanding jobs. Add oats to your meals; the little pieces of oats are a great food for lunch, and are super easy to prepare. Accompany them with a fresh salad, and you’ll have a super food for lunch.

- The vitamin E contained in oatmeal will help nourish your skin, making it look younger. For this, we recommend using oatmeal flakes to wash your face at morning and night, rather than soaps. Rub oatmeal over your face and hair, and all over your skin, to exfoliate dead skin cells and to help produce new cells. Use this remedy each time you take a bath, avoid corrosive or refined soaps on your skin, as these only dry out the skin. Oatmeal can be used on any type of skin, all you need to do is add a few flakes to your hand, moisten them, and then rub them all over your skin.
- Eat one cup of oatmeal at night with almond milk and a few pieces of raw apple. This dinner will help keep your body’s cells well nourished, and will also prepare the body to effectively eliminate your food bolus and accumulated toxins in the morning.
NOTE: try to eat organic oats, not transgenic. This is an important detail because if not, you will not be helping yourself to take full advantage of these benefits, and you will also miss the change to help the environment be in greater harmony with nature.
