Wow it's Saturday morning, the house is quiet, clean and cozy. Tina Turner music is jamming in the background. Hey, it doesn't get any better than this!

Ah, what's for breakfast? I've got a pot of steel oats cooking on the stove and an egg frying in the skillet. A pot of Don Francisco's coffee is brewing in the coffee pot. Yeah Baby!

One of my goals for staying healthy includes eating quality, simple natural foods. . Instead of the boxed oats, I buy Steel Cut Oats in bulk from stores like Whole Foods or Sprouts.

Quick Oats only take 1 minute to cook. Old Fashion Oats take 5 minutes and Steel Cut Oats takes 20-25 minutes to cook. All oats have been process but Steel Oats have not been refined, these oats are processed just as the name implies, Cut Oats. The quicker the cook time, the more processed and refined the oats are. The more processed they are the less nutrients they possess.

Dietary fiber from whole grains, as part of an overall healthy diet, help reduce blood cholesterol levels and may lower risk of heart disease. Fiber is important for healthy bowel function and helps reduce constipation, B vitamins help the body release energy from protein, fat and carbohydrates.

Remember we are Spiritual Beings having a human experience here on Earth. Our body is the instrument to use, move, create and physically enjoy life.

Making simply changes in the selection and quality of food you eat really makes a difference and improves the physical health of your body. You only get one body so take care it. Make exercising and eating healthy a top priority!

Ahh, breakfast was so healthy, tasty and filling. Look below for the proof, lol.
