Thanks @glucosegoddess for another great post. Posted @withregram @glucosegoddess Opt for steel cut oats over instant oats! This graph shows the difference of eating the same portion (1/4 cup) of instant oats vs. steel cut oats Instant oats or "quick cooking oats" go through further processing to reduce the required cooking time. Quick oats are made my steaming and rolling thin pieces of oat groates. This processing reduces some of the fiber content and make...s the oats quicker for the body to digest and therefore convert to glucose quickly. Steel cut oats are names so because they are processed by using large steel blades to chop the oat groates. Steel cut oats do not go through the same steaming processing as "rolled" or "quick oats" and therefore take longer to cook, but are better for glucose levels because the body takes longer to convert the oats to glucose.

Posted @withregram @holistic_urgent_care The next major advance in the health of the American people will be determined by what the individual is willing to do for himself. This powerful observation was made by the novelist John Knowles several decades ago. While the truth of individual determinism in health outcomes extends far beyond our national borders - the fact remains that we as Americans are (by and large) the most hypnotized population in believing that the answ...ers to improving our public health outcomes lies in the development of some new wonder drug, some magical new vaccine, or some sort of new political rhetoric in healthcare policy. In fact, health will not be the end result from requiring face masks, from social distancing, or from shutting down our entire economy. Quite the Contrary. Drugs and vaccines are also never going to be the cure for any disease resulting from a lack of healthiness. The cure to this disease is to restore the individual state health. Plain and Simple - Healthy people do not succumb to respiratory viruses. Period. If anything, healthy people become even healthier from routine exposure to viruses that stimulate their immune system to respond. Avoiding germ exposure and destroying germs indiscriminately (i.e. broad spectrum antibiotics, overuse of disinfectants, excessive hygiene in early childhood) actually backfires and causes an increased risk of getting sick, of developing autoimmune diseases and cancer. Worth noting, at least 95% of chronic disease and poor health is preventable and treatable if you are willing to make the necessary lifestyle changes. Don’t make the mistake of thinking just because you don’t have an identifiable disease that you are necessarily healthy either. But most people don’t want to be held accountable for their health. These past six months have been a massive wake up call for our population and our desperate need to restore and reprioritize our health. And it starts with you and the choices you make every day.

Brussels sprouts!!! I love them ...when cooked properly! They are part of the Brassica oleracea family of cruciferous vegetables that also include broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, kale and collard greens. Cruciferous vegetables have a sulphur containing phytochemical which gives it a distinctive odour and bitter flavour. When cooked properly Brussels sprouts offer a natural nutty sweetness! Brussels sprouts pack a nutritional punch. They rank 21st on the aggregate nutritiona...l density index which measures how much nutrition a vegetable offers for its weight. Rich in: Vitamin C Vitamin K Folate Carotenoids (beta carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin) Fiber. Try some Brussels sprouts today! DM me for the recipe! @totaltherapybc @thevillageclinic @of_remarkable_beauty #health #wellness #Healthandwellness #Healthytips #eatright #naturopathicmedicine #naturopathburnaby #naturopathicnutrition
