These seem to refer to blood pressure (?). Lots of people have good BP numbers, but still have high cholesterol.

On the other hand, it could be that the fiber helps with cholesterol - I know a man who astounded his doc by seriously lowering his cholesterol just by eating oatmeal every morning.

I don’t think I could eat the same thing every day unless I was in serious hunker down/survival mode.

She speaks of lower bp but she also shares information/recipes in presenting the additional fact
that beans are excellent foods to lower cholesterol numbers
by acting as sponges in absorption.

Did an interesting past week working with a family member guest that is using the FODMOP diet to fight IBS.

Similar to dealing with Celiac Disease and lactose intolerance.

I enjoy coming up with recipes that help people enjoy food.

What a treat....your food post😊 I tried something with oatmeal a few months ago: I tried the, I think Quaker oatmeal high protein instant oatmeal with cranberries & pecans. I didn’t feel like heating water one morning, so I ate it with milk like cold cereal. SO delicious. It stays chewy & I love it. No more hot oatmeal for moi!
