Bran flakes are a breakfast cereal made from cereal grains and bran. The figures here describe fortified bran flakes, with added vitamins and minerals, before milk or other foods are added. They mainly provide carbohydrate, with fibre and some protein. Per 100g, they contain 73g of carbohydrate, including 21g of sugars, alongside 13g of fibre and 14mg of iron.
Fibre supports normal bowel function, while iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. Sugar and salt content are worth noting when comparing breakfast cereals, particularly for people monitoring their intake. The supplied figures cover several products, so individual brands may differ. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
