The benefits are that it gives you the vitamins and minerals you might be missing from the foods you have cut out of your life whilst dieting and so maintains healthy hair, skin, nails etc.
the daily reccomonded for adults is 25 + grams of fiber, and for kids atleast 20 grams fiber, ( i have 30-35 a day) and it helps a lot, go lean original is probably the healthiest cereal i know with 140 calories per serving, 13 grams protein, 10 grams dietary fiber, 4 grams insouble and 4 grams souble, insouble is good for cholestrol, souble is best for making you fuller, and dietary fiber has benifits as well, go to the grocery store and buy some.
