Nourishment Notes

Oats

Oats provide a gluten-free source of soluble fiber, an important nutrient for gut health. Oats are also a complex carbohydrate that provides your body with the energy it needs to function it’s best.

Pecans

Pecans are full of antioxidants and may help to lower “bad” LDL cholesterol.

Fatigue Buster

  • Use Pre-Chopped Pecans

    Look for pre-chopped pecans instead of chopping your own.

  • Avoid Dish Washing

    Mash banana directly into hot oatmeal.
