Soft porridge makes an excellent start to the day. Because corn is a source of complex carbohydrate, this means they provide slow-releasing energy to get you through the morning.

In addition to this the soluble fibre in corn helps improve our sense of fullness, reducing our appetite and potentially helping us resist environmental cues to eat. The fibre beta glucan appears to also trigger the release of fullness hormones which supress our appetite.

Consuming soft porridge regularly, which is easy on the stomach, fights the body’s own inflammatory reactions, boosts the immune system and stimulates the metabolism.

Because of its health promoting, satisfying and beneficial properties, soft porridge is one of the favourite breakfasts of health conscious people all over the world. That is why it is also extremely popular as a healthy breakfast.

Don’t forget the nutritional profile of your soft porridge will vary depending on what you add as toppings or flavourings.

Hey there, my name is Hloniphile, I’m the editor-in-chief here at 1 Oak Farmstead.

Each Sunday, I send a friendly missive from my neck of the woods in our small town - Hlathikhulu. It’s a bit like sitting on the front porch with a friend, discussing our gardens over a cup of tea.

I’m a firm believer in self-sufficiency, no matter where you live, and the power and pride that comes from doing something for yourself.
