The Whole Grain Goodness of Oats

By Juliana Luecking/MOLI

My friends and neighbors ask, "Juliana, how do you do it?"

My friends and neighbors ask, "Juliana, how do you do it?" They stare at my luminous skin, "You're 92 years old and you look like you're 28!" (Can you see me blush in embarrassment?) How do I do it, indeed? Well, Ladies and Gentleman (and Androgynous Ones), it's no secret. In fact, I learned about it on Oprah from that radical heart surgeon, Dr. Mehmet Oz. Steel-cut Irish oatmeal and organic flax oil.
Almost every morning, I eat a bowl of steaming hot oatmeal with a tablespoon of flax oil (instead of butter), and this is what I get:

Whole grain goodness
  • Whole grains help flush fat and cholesterol out of your system and provide powerful antioxidants that help you stay healthier, look younger, and live longer.
  • Whole grains can reduce cholesterol and high blood pressure and even help prevent heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.


Better digestion
  • Oats bind to all the foods you've been eating that may not be so good for you.
  • As an insoluble fiber, oats get the whole bolus moving along, and drag all foods through the digestive tract.


Healthy and necessary fatty acids
  • Flax-seed oil contains omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, potassium, lecithin, magnesium, fiber protein, and zinc.
  • Flax is rich in lignan, and research shows a low incidence of breast cancer and colon cancer in populations that have high amounts of lignan in their diet.
  • Omega-3 fatty acids keeps hands from chapping and cracking.
  • Nearly every system in the body, including the cardiovascular, immune, circulatory, reproductive, and nervous systems, can benefit from flax-seed oil's natural properties.

    Ah, RP, crockpot magic! I heard if you soak it overnight in warmish water, it takes only 5 minutes to cook. Suzanne. Hm. Flax oil is different at first, now I crave it! Mix it in completely ...

    I make a bowl of McCanns in my crockpot every night and wake up to a hot bowl of porridge every morning. I add bananas and strawberries and a splash of soy milk. Yeah!

    I love oatmeal - I'll definitely try it - but Does Flax seed oil taste funny?
