Spiced up oatmeal
I LOVE oatmeal. Not only does it amazingly bind to cholesterol (overall, lowering it), it tastes amazing too! this week, I had a pleasant surprise when I added pomegranate, raspberry, blackberry, and flaxseeds to it. Dee-light-ful!

A "Healthy" Venting....

{image via Cannelle et Vanille}
My professors constantly warn us about being bombarded with random questions/comments from people once they learn that we are majoring in nutrition/dietetics OR people telling YOU what is "the healthiest food" and the "best diet" OR people telling YOU what is deemed "healthy" and "unhealthy".
I never thought I would be annoyed by it but my professors are right, people ask Bazillions of questions once they learn I am majoring in nutrition. I don't mind sensible questions/comments....but some of them, seriously?
Recent favorites include:
"I am going to stop eating lunch because I have gained weight over the passed few months."-wow, great idea, you go starve that metabolism.
"This is a pretty healthy meal (or food)!" -when referring to something that is completely processed, has mystery meat, loaded with salt, fried, breaded, has absolutely ZERO fiber, fatty, hydrogenated, sugar-over-loaded, or all of the above.
"So what's the ONE thing you have learned that is the MOST valuable?"-this is your body people! the whole situation is valuable!
"What is the ONE supplement you recommend I take?"-set an appointment with me.
"What food can I eat to lose my love-handles?"-Hahaha.
I usually just smile and give a quick response, meaning no offense.
No, I don't know everything, in fact majoring in this science has made me realize... "the more you know, the more you know you DON'T know" as one of my professors has stated once.
....BUT I didn't go to school for 4 years and study a million health studies from different universities and take various science/nutrition classes to have someone tell ME the business, Thank you MEDIA for all of your conflicting info- guess that keeps us veggie-lovers employed :)
