Jelly from oats is a long-known folk remedy for the treatment of various diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Due to its consistency and the presence of useful substances, it has a beneficial effect not only on the entire digestive system, but also on the performance of the whole organism.

The benefits and harms of the drink

In our understanding, jelly is a gelatinous, viscous and sweet drink, which includes seasonal fruits with berries, a sweetener and, of course, starch. Purchased jelly can hardly be called a useful product, since there are a lot of sweeteners and coloring agents in the list of ingredients. Oatmeal jelly besides consistency has nothing to do with these drinks. It can rather be called a full-fledged dish, which may well replace the meal.

In ancient times, it was made so thick that the finished dish was simply cut into pieces, like jelly. Drinking jelly became only in the 12th century.

The composition of jelly is diverse:

  • vitamins A, PP, group B;
  • essential amino acids;
  • cellulose;
  • probiotics;
  • a large number of micro and macro elements.

Regular use has a beneficial effect on health:

  • improves performance, endurance;
  • cleans of harmful toxins;
  • improves metabolism;
  • saturates with useful substances;
  • strengthens the immune system;
  • reduces the level of "bad" cholesterol.

In addition, the drink is able to regulate fat metabolism, the work of the pancreas, gall bladder and stomach.

Therapeutic kissel is recommended for use in such diseases:

  • hypertension;
  • hepatitis, pancreatitis, cholecystitis;
  • gastritis, gastrointestinal ulcers, intestinal disorders;
  • exhaustion;
  • diabetes;
  • atherosclerosis;
  • mental and nervous disorders;
  • anemia;
  • dropsy;
  • tuberculosis.

There are no contraindications. The main thing is to take in moderate amounts indicated in the recipes, since excess mucus in the body is still undesirable.
