What is the difference between Oat Bran and Oatmeal?

[RexGrandis]

G'day, I'd like to start off by saying I'm new to the forum and this is my first post.

And my question, what is the difference between these two? Which is most suitable for bulking?

I was thinking of just throwing some oat bran into a whey shake to make a weight-gainer on-the-go, as it is comes in fine powdery form, and doesen't mix too badly.

So oat bran or outmeal?

Cheers!

Oat bran is the outer husk of the oat kernel. It is high in soluble fibre.

You could use either on a bulk.
