Honey Nut Cheerios and other Cheerios flavors are made with whole grain oats and can help lower cholesterol as part of a heart-healthy diet.

The oats are cleaned and turned into oat flour in Minneapolis, Minnesota, before they are shipped to Cheerios factories in Iowa, Georgia and Buffalo, New York. In Buffalo, the General Mills factory and its 400 workers churn out 62 million boxes of original Cheerios and Honey Nut Cheerios every year.

Cheerios is a brand of cereal manufactured by General Mills in the United States and Canada, consisting of pulverized oats in the shape of a solid torus.

Since their introduction, Cheerios have become a popular baby food. Generally first fed to children aged 9–12 months, Cheerios serve to help infants transition to eating solid food, as well as develop fine motor skills.

"Once the dough for Cheerios is mixed, it goes through a die cut where it comes out as the iconic looking O. The best part of this cooking process is that there is not any dough wasted," Mike Siemienas, a General Mills spokesman, told Refinery29.

Cheerios are a classic breakfast cereal made from whole grains. They're not only low in fat and calories but also affordable and packed with essential vitamins and minerals. Yet, Cheerios are a processed food, and some flavors are loaded with sugar.

Although Original Cheerios is certainly a healthy product, not all Cheerios products are equally healthy. Several types of Cheerios have added sugars that make them much less healthy compared to the original product. For instance, products like Frosted Cheerios not only use sugar but corn syrup and brown sugar syrup.

From a quick glance at the ingredient list, you will find that the original "Cheerios are made from whole grains, primarily oats, and contain soluble fiber called beta-glucans, which can help lower LDL cholesterol," says Veronica Rouse, RD, CDE, founder of The Heart Dietitian.
