Oats and Your Heart … A Love Story
The health benefits of Purity Protocol oats are well documented. And the information just keeps getting better and better. Specifically for our hearts.
The Mayo Clinic lists Oats as #1 in the top 5 foods to lower cholesterol!
WHY? We know that bad cholesterol is the enemy of a healthy heart. Oatmeal contains soluble fiber, which reduces your low-density lipoprotein (LDL), the “bad” cholesterol. Soluble fiber (beta glucan) can reduce the absorption of cholesterol into your bloodstream. Five to 10 grams or more of soluble fiber a day decreases both total and LDL cholesterol. Eating 1 1/2 cups of cooked oatmeal provides 6 grams of fiber. Oats act like little artery scrubbers!
And what about Avenanthramides???
While the benefits of beta glucans in oats continue to make mainstream news, we think it’s time to start talking about Avenanthramides . We hope that this little known group of antioxidants will start to make news too. Oats are the only grain to contain this potent antioxidant which multiple studies report suppress the development of atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), lower blood pressure and help prevent colon cancer.
And based on new research, the news about Purity Protocol oats just keeps getting better. 🙂
Stay tuned for more exciting Oat Note News about this humble little grain in my upcoming “Little House on the Gluten-Free Prairie” Blog posts. Of course, you’ll find lots of oat-based recipes on our website HERE
