Eating Cereal or the Box: Which is Healthier?

Is cereal bad for you? Let’s talk about it. If you had to choose between consuming cereal or the box it came in, my assumption would be that the box is a healthier choice. There was a recall on certain cereals a few years ago because of a problem with the boxes that could possibly create temporary nausea and diarrhea in some people. But, even so, the cereal inside of the box is more concerning. Cereal is promoted as being healthy, yet it’s an ultra-processed food with added sugar. It also contains grains and synthetic vitamins. Not only that, but companies have made outrageous claims regarding their cereal brands. There is even a loophole allowing companies to add maltodextrin or corn syrup to the cereal and list them as carbohydrates, even though they behave like sugars. While they may say you could experience various health consequences if you stop consuming cereal, I believe the only consequence would be a healthier body. The healthiest breakfast food for kids is actually eggs. Ditch cereal and learn more about the health benefits of eggs in my other videos.
