Oatmeal is a product of ground oat groats (i.e. oat- meal, cf. cornmeal, peasemeal, etc.) or a porridge made from this product (also called oatmeal cereal). In the United States and Canada, 'oatmeal' can refer also to other products refined from oat groats, such as cut oats, crushed oats, and rolled oats ("quick oats"). "Instant" oatmeal is pre-cooked and dried cut oats, usually with sweetener and flavor additives. [1]Oatmeal is also used in some alcoholic drinks, cosmetics, soaps, external medical treatments, and is sometimes an added flavour in canned animal products. It is also used as a thickener in some brands of canned chili con carne. There has been increasing interest in oatmeal in recent years due to its beneficial health effects. Studies have shown that daily consumption of a bowl of oatmeal can lower blood cholesterol. After reports found that oats can help lower cholesterol, an "oat bran craze" swept the U.S. in the late 1980s, peaking in 1989. The food fad was short-lived and faded by the early 1990s. The popularity of oatmeal and other oat products again increased after the January 1997 decision by the Food and Drug Administration that food with a lot of oat bran or rolled oats can carry a label claiming it may reduce the risk of heart disease, when combined with a low-fat diet. This is because of the beta-glucan in the oats. Rolled oats have also long been a staple of many athletes' diets, especially weight trainers', given oatmeal's high content of complex carbohydrates and water-soluble fiber which encourage slow digestion and stable blood-glucose levels. Despite these developments, according to the New York Times, Harry Balzar of the NPD Group stated that "the proportion of Americans who eat oatmeal for breakfast has not changed in 20 years;" "one in five Americans eat oatmeal." Oatmeal porridge also contains more B vitamins and calories than other kinds of porridges.[2] Some of the items added to oatmeal porridge to enhance its flavour include salt, white sugar, brown sugar, stevia, cinnamon, honey, jam, molasses, maple syrup, butter, chocolate, soy milk, condensed or evaporated milk, and cream. Various types of fruit and nuts are also often added, including strawberries, blueberries, apples, peaches, mangos, bananas, raisins, dried cherries, dried cranberries, pecans, walnuts, and even peanut butter.

1. You are What you Eat
November 21, 2008
I met a man on a train years ago who had previously suffered a heart attack. He said he loved cream cheese and many other foods that he knew were not good for him. He said he would rather eat whatever he wanted and live happy then restrict himself and be miserable. The problem is that many people do not die but rather have to live with physical and neurological problems after suffering a stroke or have other ailments from their clogged arteries and poor diets (high blood pressure, diabetes, etc.). If you find it difficult to live a healthy lifestyle for whatever reason, start by making s... (read more)

9. Meatloaf Memories
August 11, 2008
Meatloaf Memories By Liz Gilbert When I was a little girl, my family would take summer trips up to see my grandparents.

15. The Perfect Carbohydrate.
May 12, 2008
Many athletes and workout fitnatics know that even though processed-grain products like white bread have their place in a diet (such as postworkout because it transports protein quickly throught the blood stream and into the muscles), whole grains like oatmeal and brown rice are generally a better choice for most meals. But there is a new contender: Quinoa.
Quinoa isn’t technically a grain. It is the seed of the Goosefoot plant, a relative of spinach. It is physically similar to grains, but can be ground into flour, which makes it a pseudograin.

20. Make the Perfect List, Find the Perfect Home

Shopping when you're hungry can lead to disaster. Either you spend too much, fail to get the food you came for - or both. Though you went to the store for a week's worth of meals and with the best intentions, you'll arrive home with a bag of oatmeal, a trunk full of gelato and the ingredients for an exotic french feast you've been wanting to make ever since you saw that film...unless you make a list. A list will save you.

November 16, 2007
On feast days, it’s especially important not to skip a healthy breakfast. We tend to over eat and choose more fattening and sugary foods when we’ve gone too long without eating.

Indulge me a little bit. Can you think about the things you did this morning when you got up? Perhaps you had a bit of instant oatmeal or any other cereal. How about instant coffee (uggh)?

25. The Old Feather Bed and Grandma's Oatmeal Bread
October 18, 2007
One of my fondest childhood memories is of Grandma's enormous feather bed. As a child, my brother and I used to play on its lumpy mattress, and since I was too small to climb up on my own, my brother would get down on all fours and let me climb up his strong back to the towering bed. The bed seemed to eat you up. I would lie on my back on the puffy white comforter that smelled of violets, rose petals, and duck fluff. There were times that we couldn’t see each other because we would each be into the many layers.
One time I was lying on my back when the feathers shifted and I pulled m... (read more)
