anomoly37 - Read the ingredients and that's how you'll know. You want a cereal to say it's whole grain and you definitely want to look at the level of sugar. I was comparing some cereals the other day and was surprised to find that something like Special K with strawberries actually, which you would think is a healthy choice, actually had higher sugar levels than I expected. I mean it's still a better choice than many others, but it wasn't the best of the healthy choices by far.
You want things that are good for you (fibre, protein etc) to be high and things that are bad for you (sugar, sodium etc) to be low so just read the labels and compare your options.
The ones that have wheat or bran or just are simply healthy.
