What are the benefits of porridge for the skin?
Oats contain polysaccharides that become gelatinous when mixed with water, creating porridge. Used on the skin, it leaves a protective and soothing film that calms soreness and redness. This soothing effect, recognised for thousands of years, could be due to avenanthramides, a type of antibiotic produced by the plant that acts as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory.
