How are Zego oats so high in protein? Our high protein oatmeal is a natural feature of the variety of oats our farmers grow, which was selected due to its high protein content and growing height (see Purity Protocol info below). This higher protein is retained because we do not heat process the oats before rolling them out for you. Our oat hulls are very loose and fall off during harvest, whereas other brands have to steam their grains to remove the hulls, which decreases protein content.

What about anti nutrients, mycotoxins, and enzyme activity bitterness? Because our oats are raw, their natural enzymes are still active, and that activity can result varying levels of bitterness in the raw product. The good news is that those enzymes are preventing the development of anti nutrients like phytates that can interfere with nutrient absorption and cause digestive upset. In addition, because our oat hulls are naturally extremely loose around the grain, they also have much lower mycotoxins than other typical hulled oat grains. You should always cook any kind of oats, and especially raw oats. This will neutralize the bitterness from the enzyme activity.

Are these oats good for diabetics? Our oats are low glycemic — they have no added sugar and are higher in fiber than other brands. This makes them a better choice for diabetics.
