Eat Oats!

Having made so many changes to my diet and lifestyle the past week, it's good to know that I was already doing something right. The first rule of Ann Esselstyn's 8 Principles is Eat Oats for breakfast. Oats help lower cholesterol and also reduce artery inflammation. Personally I like to eat oatbran made with water and a splash of milk (soy milk of course), topped with honey (or natural syrup if you're vegan) and sometimes sliced banana. It's also a handy breakfast to prepare when you're in a rush to get ready in the morning. I put the oatbran on a low heat whilst I dash round my apartment finding my work clothes and packing my lunch, and hey presto! breakfast is ready.
