1. Sustained, Slow Release Energy
Black oats are particularly high in beta-glucan – a soluble fiber that’s been shown to help stabilize blood sugar and insulin levels to prevent energy crashes. These benefits are particularly helpful as we age: when daily energy levels reduce, it’s doubly important to choose the right foods at the very start of the day.
Mornings can be tough, but oats are highly regarded as a consistent, slow-release energy source you can depend on. You’ll have all you need to make it to lunchtime!
2. Uniquely Rich Antioxidant Content
Regular oats are packed with magnesium, iron, zinc, and the full spectrum of B vitamins, but our black oat formula packs an extra punch.
Able’s blends offer a particularly high antioxidant content thanks both to the natural properties of black oats and a carefully selected pallet of nine special ingredients. This helps provide improved protection against the oxidative stress that builds up throughout the day, with every spoonful helping to reduce systemic inflammation and lower the risk of chronic diseases.
3. Superior Protein Content
If you’ve been working out the day before, your muscles will be craving protein for growth and repair come the morning. Even if you don’t currently train, having a higher protein intake gets more important as we get older for maintaining healthy levels of muscle mass.
Black oats are already higher in protein than traditional oats, but our blend augments this property much further by combining pea, quinoa, and sprouted amaranth. This complete formula provides 22 grams of protein per serving, and if you’re looking for a quick fix, our protein bars offer 12 grams for only 200-220 calories.
4. Naturally Gluten Free
If you’re celiac or simply don’t tolerate gluten well, it can be difficult to find the perfect breakfast choice when the vast majority of bread and cereal products are off the menu. Not only this, but many gluten-free substitutes taste nothing like their natural counterparts!
Thankfully, oats are naturally gluten-free, so why not do away with that toast that tastes like cardboard?
5. A Powerful Weight loss Aid
As the old saying goes: fail to prepare, prepare to fail! Part of the battle with weight loss is staying full, and as your body begins to crave nutrients following the night’s fast, breakfast marks a crucial time to make the right choices.
Oats represent an easy go-to. The high fiber content combined with our added protein blend keeps you full for as long as possible, while a low glycemic index prevents the erratic blood sugar fluctuations associated with sugary foods and cravings.
6. Boosting Immune Function
Vitamins and minerals, also known as micronutrients, are essential for a strong immune system, providing your body with the materials it needs to produce immune cells and modulate inflammation.
Our products boast over 40 separate unique nutrients, each of which contributes to fortifying your body as a vessel of strength and vitality. Starting your day with Able gives your body the tools it needs to defend itself throughout the day!
7. Quick and Easy
Breakfast time may be one of the most important moments of the day, but it’s also often one of the busiest. At Able, we believe you shouldn’t have to choose between your health and speed.
With our oats, it’s as simple as grabbing a pouch and adding milk for a powerful blast of top-quality nutrition. You can also stash our protein bars in your bags, coats, or car for times where there isn’t a minute to spare.
8. Keeping Your Heart Healthy
Oats are wonderful for the heart – and black oats are even better. Their higher levels of beta-glucan help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol to reduce age-related risks of heart disease, and their magnesium content also contributes to regulating blood pressure levels by relaxing vessels.
Your heart bears a significant load throughout the day, so give it what it needs to function optimally from the get-go!
9. Maintaining Gut Health
Digestive issues can really get you down, and in many cases, they’re traced back to what we ate from the start of the day. Oats are associated with lower levels of GI discomfort and cramping, and our products don’t contain refined sugars and artificial sweeteners known to cause problems.
Instead, the ingredients combine harmoniously to allow your digestive system to function calmly, smoothly, and efficiently, helping you start the day right and minimize chronic discomfort as you go about your business.
10. The Versatility You Need to Never Get Bored
Even once you’ve found a solid option for breakfast, it’s often not long before you’ll get bored of it. At Able, we’ve formulated our carefully designed oat blends into five fantastic flavors for our overnight oats and four for our protein bars, meaning you’ve always got the opportunity to switch things up!
