Hello there,
In a bid to gain weight I was advised to eat Scottish Oatcakes. They contain oatmeal, fat (some palm oil some veg oil, some olive oil at 21.3g per 100g and about 2g per biscuit), salt and some contain wheatflour and a bit of sugar.
SO far, they seem to be going down ok and the weight does seem to be going on. Does anyone else use them?
Also, I found some supplements which contain oatbran as well as fructose, stearic acid, carob, silica, honey and magnesium stearate. Anything in there that could set me back do you reckon?
Just one more quick query...I have tried to search it on the board with no luck..how do you work out the safe percentage of fat in a product. For example, if there are 457kcal per 100g and 21g of fat how much percent of fat is there? Sorry for the maths puzzle but I jsut wanted to make sure that I wasn't over-doing my fat intake in a bid to gain pounds.
Thanks,
Claire
