Are you worried about lectins?
Letâs chew the facts.
Lectins are present in high amounts in RAW beans. But do you eat raw beans? No. Canned beans are cooked. Raw beans are soaked for several hours, then cooked.
Lectins are also high in RAW oats and raw wheat (like wheat germ). If you eat your oats cooked, lectins arent an issue, and theyâre a great source of soluble fiber.
Foods that contain lectins actually have some health benefits âĄïžThere is quite a bit of evidence that shows that lectin-containing foods like legumes, whole grains, and nuts are associated with lower rates of heart disease and type 2 diabetes.
They also slow down digestion and the absorption of carbohydrates, which may prevent sharp rises in blood sugar and high insulin levels - a good thing for snyobe wuth metabolic syndrome or diabetes.
Bottom line: dont worry about lectins. Avoid RAW beans & grains.

Do you know the muffin man? He likes his sliders like this! đ
Enjoy summer holiday weekends with these perfect sized burgers for slider buns!
Season your lean ground meat as you like. (I used a salt-free Mrs Dash burger seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, ground black pepper.) Place a pound and a half onto a cutting board. Cover with waxed paper and press into a rectangle. Roll out and square up edges. Cut into 12 equal mini burger patties.

Have no fear, chew the facts.
Seed oils are not bad for you unless youâre drinking a couple of quarts of it daily. You dont have to obsess over the grams of sugar in everything. Limit extra sugary foods or beverages, but the sugar in your catsup is not having a huge imoact okay?
Popular myths do not improve diet quality nor health.

Replying to @Dee I love the idea of baking homemade goodies. However, im offering some light humor to bring home the point that, in reality, many busy parents donât have this luxury. Some people experience so much daily stress that a packsged treat may lift up their day a little. In our school district many underprivileged children got to school with no breakfast. Being given a Pop Tart & milk before class supported their learning. Some breakfast is better than no breakfast. đ

Quick reminder. Looking for factual food and nutrition information? Be sure that itâs dietitian approved.
The term ânutritionistâ is not regulated. Anybody can call themself a nutritionist. đ€
Registered dietitians nutritionists (RDNs) must acquire a degree from an accredited program and pass a national registration exam. In addition, our education never ceases. đ Like doctors, nurses and other health professionals, we must acquire approved education each year to maintain our credential.
Look for the RDN credential or a masters degree or PhD in nutrition or food science. Individuals with a âcertificateâ in nutrition or coaching generally do not have a deep knowledge base. Buyer beware.

When you hear âdrink in moderationâ do you really know what that means??
Iâm here to teach ya.
A standard drink is equivalent to 12-oz beer, 5-oz pour of wine (an 8-oz pour is therefore >1.5 âdrinksâ) or 1.5 oz of liquor (a jigger or shot glass).

Come on a bee đ garden tour with me!
According to the Savannah Bee Company owner, Ted Dennard, every bee colony visits over five hundred million flowers a year đłWhoa.
Here are some fun facts about bees đ and honey đŻ:
đ âThe Bee Movieâ got it all wrong. Boys donât do any of the work in a bee colony! Drones are the male bees. They fly fast and their sole purpose is to mate. They die in 90 days.
đ Worker bees are the smallest bees. They are non-reproducing females (yep, the ladies do all the real work).
đ Workers serve the Queen bee. They feed her, and any larvae. They guard the hive entrance. They fan their wings to cool down the hive. They come and go to collect nectar and create the hive comb.
đ Worker bees create holes in a circular tube, in rows in the wax comb. As heat formed by the activity of the bees softens the wax, the wax hardens to create the vomb structure.
đ Young workers secrete a substance called âroyal jellyâ from their heads. The Queen natures and grows larger because sheâs fed this royal jelly.
đ The Queen lives 2-5 years, and mates with numerous drones to produce more worker bees.
đ Without bees, weâd be missing a lot of food crops. Bees pollinate 80% of the planys we eat.
Honey đŻ comes from the natural nectar that bees retrieve from flowers after they return from pollinating. The nectar is deposited in the honeycomb and breaks down into simple sugars. Of course nutritionally honey is simply a sugar made up of fructose & glucose.
Depending on its source, bees produce different varietals of honey that vary in color and flavor. đ Check out the Chew the Facts blog for more info - The Amazing Work of Bees. #linkinbio
