Benefits of cereal
Ready-to-eat cereal is one of the best breakfast choices you can make.
Cereal eaters consume less fat, less cholesterol, fewer caloriesĀ and more fiber than noncereal eaters.
Ready-to-eat cereals also deliver important vitamins, such as vitamins A, B6, iron, niacin and zinc, and cereal is a top source of minerals and other key nutrients in children's diets.
Importantly, more frequent cereal eaters tend to have healthier body weights and lower Body Mass Index (BMI) measures. It's true of men. It's true of women. It's true of kids. And that includes people who eat presweetened cereals.
Every General Mills Big G cereal contains at least 8 grams of whole grain per serving, and more than 20 General Mills cereals deliver 16 grams or more.
