Oatmeal is fine, but has nothing on hulled barley.
Oats are for horses. Mankind basically co-evolved with Barley.

Hulled barley gives me the worst stomach ache of my life. I’m a horse I guess.
People go too hard, you really just need to drink 1 tsp ground up and boiled in a drink. It aggressively gels with water so it's best consumed like it was historically as a "small beer", with lot's of water.

Barley was the preferred food for cavalry horses alongside oats since antiquity so “oats are for horses” is a medieval European quirk.
