Irish Oats for Healthy Eating

Bacteria in the gut microbiome are believed to have an impact on everything from immunity to inflammation to the ability to burn fat. It’s important to feed the gut not only probiotics but also the prebiotics like beta glucan fiber, found naturally in oats, that feed these beneficial bacteria. Flahavan’s is pleased to offer gut-healthy recipes on its website, such as turmeric kimchi steel cut oatmeal, which combine prebiotic and probiotic foods, along with old-time favorites enhanced by the naturally creamy texture resulting from a combination of the optimum Irish oat-growing climate and Flahavan’s unique slow-milling process.

For over 230 years and seven generations, E. Flahavan & Sons has been producing quality Irish oats at their family-owned mill in Kilmacthomas, beneath the Comeragh Mountains in County Waterford. Flahavan’s oats are sustainably grown and milled in Ireland, bringing wholesome, naturally creamy and non-GMO-verified oatmeal from farm to spoon since 1785.

Available in Stop & Shop, Kings Foods Markets, ShopRite and Fairway and other fine grocery stores. For information, visit @FlahavansUSA or Flahavans.ie. 

5 Top Tips to Finding Your Next Doctor

1 Keep an Open Mind! Healthcare has come a long way. Today, you have access to practitioners that branch outside of traditional medicine and aim to identify the root causes of conditions while using alternative treatments that may help you get the relief you need. Just because it’s not a pill, doesn’t make it pseudoscience.

2 Build Your Health Care Team. There is no one doctor that can be the be-all-end-all for your health needs. Be sure to have a team of practitioners with different “lenses” and areas of expertise who will treat the root cause and not just the symptom(s).

3   Environment Influences Healing. Health is multi-factorial. Your mental and emotional environment plays a pivotal role in your healing potential. Your doctors and their staff should create an office atmosphere filled with positivity so you can get the most out of your care.

4 Your Story Matters.  Before you begin any treatment, be sure to have a comprehensive consultation to discuss your health concerns. Find practitioners who welcome questions and will take the time to listen and treat you with respect.

5 Report of Findings. When it comes to our health, we often make decisions without understanding the risk versus benefits. Knowledge is an important part of the healing process and is essential to make conscious, informed health decisions. Find practitioners who take the time to explain their exam findings and the recommendations for treatment in ways that make sense to you.
