Huntfisheat , how do you blokes cook those oats ? I am the self-proclaimed foremost NZ porridge expert and being qualified as such I know that Oats must be properly cooked to burst the starch molecules. Without doing so we cannot digest that starch fully. At home I soak my oats in the cooking pot overnight - the water breaking down the plant Lectins and thus improving our digestion. The addition of a spoonful of yogurt at soaking also helping as the Lacto bacillus breakdown the plant proteins.
Lemon juice also helps.
Most times if people say " I cant eat porridge it makes me bloated and fart like a horse" it is because they didn't cook it enough and didn't use enough water to bring it properly to the boil.
