Giveaway: Healthy Whole Grains Class

Did you know that a simple process can actually increase the nutrients your body absorbs from whole grains?  Or that that self-same process can actually deactivate irritating antinutrients found in grains?  Indeed, despite the current emphasis on whole grains by the dietary powers-that-be, consuming whole grains doesn’t do much for you and, in fact, might [...]

Muffins-2

The Thing About Blueberries . . . is that they don’t grind their Harleys over the hot desert tarmac, or throw eight-course dinner parties at Monet’s garden in Giverny, or eat jellied eels from a stall in London.  Because – let’s face it – blueberries are homebodies.
