10 worst cereals

These are the worst cereals, least nutritious, according to Dr. Mercola.

"According to Cereal FACTS (Food Advertising to Children and Teens Score), which was developed based on the best available science, in consultation with a steering committee of experts in nutrition, marketing, and public health, the 10 worst breakfast cereals based on nutrition score are:

1. Kellogg - Corn Pops (or Pops) - Chocolate Peanut Butter
2. Quaker - Cap'n Crunch - w/ Crunchberries
3. Kellogg - Special K - Chocolatey Delight
4. Kellogg - Special K - Blueberry
5. General Mills - Reese's Puffs
6. General Mills - Fiber One - Caramel Delight
7. Kellogg - Cocoa Krispies - Choconilla
8. General Mills - Golden Grahams
9. General Mills - Cinnamon Toast Crunch
10. Kellogg - Corn Pops"

Instead of eating these sweetened, preserved and colored cereals, try eating an all natural cereal, such as Barbara's cereal, or at least one lower in sugar!  Or, go for eggs and toast, yogurt (be careful...many yogurts are loaded with sugar) and granola, or a fruit/veggie smoothie (sugar in fruit is not the same as that added to cereal...however, you don't want to overdo it on fruit).  It's best to get a little protein with breakfast as it will fill you up longer.  I find it hard to include veggies (think omelettes) in breakfast, but that is best too!  You can also see the end of this article on cereals for other healthy breakfast options.  We have yet to make cereal an occasional breakfast, but I hope to be able to try and continue eating some new, healthy options soon.
