The Benefits of Oatmeal

Eating oatmeal has many benefits. The best oatmeal that I like to use is rolled oats because its more versatile in cooking than quick oats. Oatmeal is naturally gluten-free, however if you are gluten sensitive, you should check packaging to make sure it hasn’t been processed in a facility that also processes wheat.

  1. Oatmeal is high in fiber and great for digestion.
  2. Oatmeal is an anti-inflammatory and contains Avenanthramide that is great to lower blood pressure.
  3. Helps control weight and keeps you feeling fuller longer.
  4. Can reduce your bad LDL cholesterol levels and regular cholesterol levels.
  5. Oatmeal has a low glycemic index and can stabilize your blood sugar levels.
  6. Reduces the risk of colorectal cancer.
  7. Oatmeal has antioxidants and reduces the risk of heart disease.
  8. Lowers the risk of asthma and asthma attacks.

Navigating Life With Digestion Issues

Sometimes life is hard. I love good food. Since the age of 19 it has been a roller coaster ride to figure out my digestion. Years later, I was devastated when I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. It has been through the process of elimination I have been able to discover food intolerances, food allergies and finally get my digestion under control. But sometimes, accidents happen, and then it’s a mad dash for the probiotics to set me straight.

In my previous career, I spent many years in the Publishing and Printing industry. While working in that industry, I was the editor of a diabetic cookbook. I was curious and tried many of the recipes in that book. Most of them were not that good. It was with this experience that gave me the idea to experiment with new recipes as I figure out how to make food taste good and gluten-free. Hopefully you will join me as I am on my journey figuring out life and how to live a good gluten-free lifestyle. I think maybe one day, I will publish my own book of yummy recipes.
