Siberian naked oats is a mid-maturing spring oat variety distinguished by its intact grains in the hull, which preserves their high germination rate and nutritional properties. This variety is resistant to lodging and offers good yield, with grains weighing between 27 and 34 grams and containing a high protein level ranging from 15.9% to 19.8%. Due to the absence of mechanical cleaning, the oats retain cellulose, making them especially beneficial for sprouting and preparing whole-grain oatmeal with a creamy texture and rich flavor.
Naked oats are a valuable source of proteins, fiber, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, zinc, and other essential micronutrients. They contribute to the maintenance of cardiovascular health, normalize blood sugar levels, improve digestion, and exert anti-inflammatory effects. Sprouted oat grains possess even more pronounced beneficial properties and can be used in various dishes, such as salads, porridges, and smoothies, expanding their application possibilities in the diet.
Besides culinary use, healing decoctions, infusions, as well as compresses and poultices are made from naked oat grains and applied for the body's rehabilitation. Thanks to the high content of slow carbohydrates, oats ensure a prolonged feeling of fullness and provide the body with energy, which is particularly recommended for people with increased physical and mental loads.
