Learn More »Don't get us wrong—there are a lot of incredible benefits to eating oatmeal. In fact, oatmeal is by far one of the best complex carbs to have in your diet because it assists with weight loss, protects your heart, and even helps you live longer. Nevertheless, you can eat too much of any food—no matter how healthy it is. That's why it's important to take note of this one major side effect of eating too much oatmeal at once. While oatmeal is considered one of the best carbs you can eat, too much oatmeal can actually cause an uncomfortable amount of belly bloat on your body. That's because oatmeal contains a significant amount of dietary fiber, and too much fiber at once can cause belly bloat if your body isn't used to it. (Related: The 7 Healthiest Foods to Eat Right Now) Why does fiber cause belly bloat? It has to do with the way your body digests it. Fiber is a type of indigestible carbohydrate found in plant cell walls that can actually attach itself to other carbohydrates you digest and flush them out of your system. This process is helpful for your gut health and digestion, and it can actually keep you feeling full for longer periods of time. Foods high in fiber include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, legumes, avocados, leafy greens, and of course, oats. Oats are known as a soluble fiber, which is a type of fiber that's good for your heart health and lowering your cholesterol. In a 1/2 cup serving of rolled-cut oats, you get 4 grams of dietary fiber, which is around 13% to 16% of your daily recommended intake, according to the American Heart Association (AHA). Oatmeal is still a great option for a meal or snack, but eating too much fiber at once could cause your body to experience some uncomfortable belly bloat—especially if you've never had that much fiber before. Americans average only 10 to 15 grams of dietary fiber on a daily basis when they really need 25 to 30 grams, per the AHA.

This story is part of the 2018 Feel Good Food Plan, our two-week mind-body-belly plan for starting the year off right. Oatmeal is one of the great "healthy" breakfasts for good reason: It's cheap, quick, and full of the nutrients you need to start the day off right. Unfortunately, oatmeal can also be super underwhelming. Nobody wants to eat the same thing every day, especially when it's a bowl of sorta-gluey beige mush. Luckily, it doesn't have to be that way. With the right choice in cooking liquid, plenty of toppings, and a bit of technique, oatmeal can be straight-up dreamy. Here are some of the BA staff's favorite ways to make oatmeal live up to its fullest, most delicious, potential. Soak your oats—even if it’s just on your way to work. Soaked oats cook faster and won’t boil over in the microwave as quickly. Use an unexpected, savory cooking liquid like chicken stock, vegan broth or dashi for a warming, umami-packed breakfast. Drizzle some of your morning chai into the oats (or use a premixed concentrate like Dona Chai) for nuanced, aromatic oats. Or, replace your usual cooking liquid with herbal tea for a perfumed flavor. Add other grains like millet, amaranth, and buckwheat for textural interest.
