"While exact ingredient combinations can vary, muesli is a dry mixture of oats, nuts, and other grains, plus dried fruits and spices like cinnamon or dried apricot chunks. Whatever its exact formula, it's a textural smorgasbord of different flavors. This raw cereal is all about rich composition and minimal processing, sitting firmly at the intersection of food and medicine since its conception."
"For starters, muesli is lower in sugar than granola due to its lack of processing. Its raw oat base makes the cereal high in fiber (especially the soluble fiber beta-glucan), which helps maintain digestive tract and gut health, as well as reduces the risk of heart disease. Those oats are also packed with protein, promoting satiety. This helps foodies feel fuller longer while keeping the body energetically fuelled throughout the day, supporting weight management goals."
Muesli is a raw, minimally processed cereal composed of oats, nuts, grains, dried fruits, and spices. The recipe originated with Swiss physician Maximilian Bircher-Benner as a nutrient-dense food for chronically ill patients. Muesli tends to be lower in sugar than granola because it lacks heavy processing. The oat base supplies soluble fiber, particularly beta-glucan, supporting digestive and gut health and lowering heart disease risk. Oats also deliver protein that promotes satiety and aids weight management. Nuts and seeds add healthy fats, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamin E, which benefit heart health, cholesterol, skin, and hair. Muesli is also high in antioxidants.
