Farelo de aveia, or oat bran, is a nutrient-dense product derived from the outer layer of oat groats. Particularly popular in Brazilian cuisine and globally recognized for its health benefits, it is rich in dietary fiber, especially beta-glucans, which are known to support heart health by regulating cholesterol levels. Farelo de aveia also provides essential vitamins like B-complex, minerals such as iron and magnesium, and a moderate amount of protein. Its soluble fibers help improve digestion and promote a feeling of fullness, making it ideal for weight management. Commonly used in baking, smoothies, or as a topping for yogurt or salads, it is a versatile addition to many dishes. While Farelo de aveia is generally healthy, it’s important to consume it moderately, as excessive fiber intake may lead to digestive discomfort for some individuals.
