Cereal

[Mithrandir]

I found this cereal and I wanted to post its contents to see if you guys thought it is some good stuff or if there is better stuff out there..

It is called Go Lean by Kashi

I have never seen a cereal with more protein and yet still maintain a high fiber count...

1g unsaturated fat
0g cholesterol
85mg Sodium
480mg Potassium
30g total carbs
10g Dietary Fiber
1g Soluble Fiber
9g Insoluble Fiber
6g Sugars

13g Protein

I think this is a shitload of protein...I used to eat Fiber one, but this has way more protein and only 3 grams less on fiber....are there better cereals for me, or is this a good one?

Thanks.

Well, it still has sugars in it & I think the label shows hydrogenated oils.... but I still eat it occasionally.... And the one I have has 12g fiber per 1 cup....

Go Lean Crunch doesn't have any hydrogenated oils. I use that as high GI carbs sometimes. It uses soy as its protein source. I think it tastes great it

Kashi makes good stuff. I like Heart to heart as well.

I normally go for shredded wheat and that is it... anyway, we don't have that many cereals here to choose from, since Europeans don't really eat cereals for breakfast: Sweet breads and rolls with cream is the name of the game here for Breakfast (ewwwww, can't stand it...)

BTW.... I just notices that shredded wheat and shredded weed sound about the same... and I am sure some people would have the secondf one for breakfast too...

Drink a shake. Protein from vegetable sources (like wheat) is incomplete and normally useless from a BB point of view.

I think it's one of the other versions that have the hydrog. oils -- Good Friends or Cinnamon Raisin. I get the cereal at Trader Joe's & they have all sorts of flavors....

Im on a cutting diet right now, due to an injury cant really work out right now but am restarting beging of march(hopefully). So my calorie deficit is good just want to up the protien to protect my muscles.

BTW would a regualr grocery store carry these cereals? im going to make a stop before i go home, but the healt food store and the grocery store are in two opposite directions. Thanks guys

 

[sublime35]

I've only found the "Good Friends" at my local grocery store..... I've found more varieties of Kashi cereals at my local Trader Joe's

 

[Mithrandir]

HEB carries them, they usually have an organic section..also, Central Market or Whole foods will have them, they will be pricier there, so try a 'normal' store first...but yeah, at 13 grams of Protein not counting milk or the shake I have a little later, I feel nice.

 

[pintoca]

Man, I can only WISH we had such a variety of healthy cereals down here... It all comes down to "Extra-Sugary-PinK-Radioactive-looking-kids-cereal" or raw wheat...

Thanks guys i found them in my local Stop & Shop and i couldnet find them at first for like 30 minutes but i found them in there own little health section. LOL. didnt know i ate special food these days =]

btw: gO LEAN Crunch the 13g protien one tastes great with some splenda =]
