Cornflakes are a low-fat but highly refined breakfast cereal with a high glycemic index, so they spike blood sugar quickly. Most brands are fortified with B vitamins and iron, but they are low in fiber and protein on their own.

Granola is one of the most underestimated calorie traps: a small bowl can hide 400+ kcal because of added oils and sweeteners. The base ingredients (oats, nuts, seeds) are nutritious, but commercial brands often carry 20+ grams of added sugar per 100g. Read the label and measure portions carefully.
