Mycotoxins Detected in Conventional Oatmeal
Recent tests by 'Öko-Test' revealed the presence of mycotoxins in several conventional oatmeal products. These toxins can harm the digestive system and weaken the immune system.
Notably, two products surpassed the European Food Safety Authority's (EFSA) recommended limits. However, organic oatmeal products were largely free from these contaminants and pesticides.
The practice of crop rotation in organic farming helps reduce the risk of mycotoxin contamination. While some conventional brands received poor ratings due to high toxin and pesticide levels, others like Kölln and Brüggen achieved top marks.
Consumers are advised to consider organic options for a healthier breakfast choice.
