Cranberries
by Rhea Hamilton -Seeger
Are all those Christmas cookies
eaten up? Have you done all
you can do to that huge turkey carcass
gaping at you from the back of the
fridge? Feeling guilty after all that
holiday over -indulgence?
Don't despair. While we may all
at one time or another hate the sight of
another shortbread, we all need to eat
and maybe what we need is a rest
from some of the fattening items.
While at work one snowy day I
overheard some co-workers wishing
for a real blast of winter so they could
stay home to relax and do some bak-
ing. My mother instilled in me the
same feeling. When you can't get
out, make the most of it. Get the
oven fired up and the flour bin out.
I had a chat with Beth Wilkes,
nutrition consultant for Huron County,
about all the hubbub surrounding oat
bran. Before you throw out all the
wheat bran you've been using in
muffins and sneaking into mcatloaf,
consider that both oat and wheat bran
are both important fibres. Each has its
own job to do in the body.
Wheat bran speeds up the digestion
and helps your body rid itself of toxic
substances quicker. Oat bran is a gum
fibre which appears to help lower the
body's cholesterol level.
There are other types of fibre, such
as the pectin fibre we get from fruits,
and they also keep cholesterol levels
down as well as helping to balance our
blood glucose level.
Wilkes notes that consumers
should not abandon their familiar bran
but, as always, try to eat a balanced
diet with a bit of everything. Oatmeal
is a whole grain which contains the
best of everything, and on that satisfy-
ing note here is a muffin recipe with
the best of everything. That sounds
like something a mother would say!
