Porridge made with full-fat whole milk is the most calorie-dense, richest preparation of oats. It delivers the beta-glucan of oats alongside the calcium, iodine, vitamin B12, protein, and fat of whole milk — a highly satiating combination. The fat slows gastric emptying and moderates the already low glycaemic impact of oat porridge.
A particularly nourishing choice for children, those needing calorie-dense meals, or cold mornings. Top simply with a drizzle of honey, berries, or a sprinkle of seeds.

Glycemic Index & Load
Medium GI food — moderate effect on blood sugar. Pair with protein, fat, or fibre to lower the overall meal GI.
Glycemic Load (GL = GI × carbs ÷ 100) accounts for portion size. A moderate GL — portion size matters here.

* % Daily Value is the proportion of an adult
EU Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) supplied by 100g of this food.
NRVs are the labelling standard — the same basis as the “%RI” figures printed on
food packaging — so these percentages are directly comparable with a shop label.
They are a single adult figure and do not vary by age or sex, which is why they
sometimes differ from UK dietary reference values: the NRV for vitamin C is 80mg
where the UK RNI is 40mg. When Nutriofia assesses your own intake in the
reports and trackers, it uses the age- and sex-specific UK values instead.
Fibre is shown without a percentage. Our fibre values use the UK
Englyst NSP method, while the published 30g daily goal is an AOAC figure — the two
are measured differently and a single percentage would mislead.
