Overnight oats.

These easy overnight oats are the perfect grab-and-go breakfast for busy summer mornings. Prepared the night before using fibre-rich oats, chia seeds and topped with seasonal berries, this recipe isn't just delicious - it's backed by research linking high-fibre, high-fruit diets to a reduced risk of breast cancer.

Why your body will thank you. 

Oats and chia seeds are high in fibre. Studies have shown that a diet high in fibre is associated with a decreased breast cancer risk. 

Berries are part of your 5-a-day. Many studies indicate that a diet high in fruit can reduce breast cancer risk.
