Fortified malted wheat breakfast cereal is a wheat-based cereal with added vitamins and minerals. The figures describe the cereal without milk or other additions. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with 76g per 100g, including 20g of sugars. It also contains 8.6g of fibre and 8.7g of protein per 100g.
Carbohydrate provides energy, while fibre supports normal bowel function. The cereal also supplies iron, which is needed to make haemoglobin, the substance in red blood cells that carries oxygen. Sugar and salt content are worth noting when comparing breakfast cereals, as recipes and fortification levels vary between products. Milk or other additions will change the overall nutrient content of a serving. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
