3. Overnight oats are raw oats that have been soaked
overnight in liquid: popular choices include almond
milk, coconut milk, or Greek yogurt. W hen you soak
the oats overnight, the longer and slower process
helps the starches break down and helps your body
utilize the oats’ nutrients much more efficiently.

5. WHAT ARE THE DRAWBACKS?
Overnight oats take a
long time to prepare, and
aren’t very portable.
Mason jar of oats with a
spoon on a crowded
NYC subway in the
morning? Might get
messy…
Most overnight oats are
topped with fresh fruit,
granola, honey, chia
seeds, protein powders,
etc… which can take a
toll on your wallet.
6. WHAT ABOUT READY-TO-EAT
BRANDS?
Ready-to-eat brands can still be a chore to eat if you’re on the
move, and often require additional toppings if you don’t want to
compromise on taste. Additionally, they are not the most
environmentally sustainable way to eat Overnight Oats,
considering the tubs they come in are made of plastic.
