Raw Oats with High Resistant Starch
UNCOOKED OATS ⬆️ RESISTANT STARCH
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• Resistant starch (RS) is starch that moves through the small into the large intestine without being digested. While it is not technically a dietary fibre, it functions in a similar way
• RS helps support a healthy gut by increasing good bacteria levels and has been shown to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer
• RS is found naturally in many plant foods. For many foods the amount depends on what processes the food has been through.
• Uncooked oats contain approx 10% RS but cooked oats contain <1%
• Other good sources of RS include unripe bananas, cooked then cooled potatoes, cashews, cooked lentils, cooked white beans and green peas
Ah, behold the humble office holiday party – that annual tradition where coworkers gather to eat soggy appetizers and navigate awkward small talk. As we approach this joyous occasion, it’s important to remember the dos and don’ts of festive workplace merriment.
First and foremost, let’s talk about the dreaded Secret Santa gift exchange. We’ve all been there – you draw Bob from accounting and suddenly realize you have no idea what to get him. Do you go with the safe option of a gift card, or take a risk with a quirky desk accessory? Remember, it’s the thought that counts – unless, of course, you thought a framed photo of yourself would be a winning choice.
And then there’s the issue of alcohol consumption. Yes, the open bar may be calling your name, but proceed with caution. Nothing says “I deserve a promotion” like accidentally spilling your drink on the boss or performing a questionable rendition of “All I Want for Christmas Is You” karaoke-style.
Let’s not forget about the annual office holiday party fashion show. While it may be tempting to break out the ugly Christmas sweater or reindeer antler headband, remember that you still have to face your colleagues on Monday morning. Opt for a festive yet professional look that says “I’m here to spread cheer, not embarrassment.”
So, as you prepare for this year’s office holiday party, remember to keep it classy, merry, and most importantly, drama-free. After all, nothing ruins a festive gathering like having to file an HR complaint on Monday morning. Cheers to a successful and joyous celebration with your coworkers!
