Rolled Oats (Avena sativa) — Pure Unsweetened Whole Oat Flakes, 500g

Rolled Oats (Avena sativa), known in Chinese as Yàn Mài (燕麦), are the flattened, dried groats of the cultivated oat plant, a classic whole-grain food herb long valued in Chinese food therapy (食疗) as a gentle, spleen-supporting grain. Pure and unsweetened with no added sucrose, these first-grade flakes are milled from a single ingredient—oats—and are prized as a mild, nourishing staple for daily congee, porridge, and grain-based tonics. Their nature is sweet and neutral, making them a soft, steady grain for everyday nourishment.
