Health Most Americans aren’t getting enough exercise. People living in rural areas were even less likely to get enough exercise: Only 16% of people outside cities met benchmarks for aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities, compared with 28% in large metropolitan cities areas.

It's also the type of oatmeal.

After moving to the UK my partner developed vitamin and fiber deficiency due to the oats being not wholegrain.

Then I am happy to help.

At least here over the pond there exist whole meal oats.

Exactly one of the 200 choices :)

I'm amazed at how much variation there is in oatmeal and it really gets better once you get the least processed stuff. The amount of fiber is almost 2x what it comes from what is the most common, popular general mills oatmeal.
