Muesli is exceptionally high in soluble fibre and whole grains are good for digestion and also help control weight.

Muesli is ready-to-eat and a popular breakfast option consisting of oatmeal, fresh and dried fruits, seeds and nuts. The first meal of the day is the most important as it sets the tone for the rest of the day. So, whatever goes around in your day, never ever miss your breakfast.

The best part about starting the day with muesli is that you get the goodness of high fibre oatmeal and protein in the form of walnuts in one bowl. In the face of our hectic life, we don’t find the time to do something healthy in the kitchen. Muesli is a quick and easy snack with the right combination of nutrients and flavour, packed with healthy ingredients. 

Muesli is high-protein muesli made from oatmeal, corn, wheat flakes, grains, seeds, nuts and a variety of other morning ingredients. Muesli tastes amazing in the morning. You can also give it a shot with yoghurt and maple syrup or a dash of milk and fresh berries. It is extremely rich in Vitamin E, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Thiamine, as well as Iron, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Potassium and Zinc.  

Muesli is exceptionally high in soluble fibre, and whole grains are good for the digestive system and also help with weight management and is a great substitute for unhealthy snack options. A great way to good health is to replace your unhealthy eating habits with healthier options. They contain high nutritional value and are rich in proteins, vitamins, minerals and fibres. A plate of muesli with millet is not only healthy but can also be personalized to your taste. There are no hard and fast rules for eating granola and you can always experiment with the ingredients you want to pair it with.
