SO here's the thing about heat and oats. 🔥🔥Typical oat brands heat treat their oats before they are sold to remove the hulls and roll them out into oatmeal. This decreases their nutrition and breaks their enzymes, which allows anti-nutrients to develop over time (like phytic acid).

But ZEGO isn't your typical oats brand. 

First, we start with a high-quality, special oat variety that is higher in key nutrients like protein, iron, and fiber. 🌱

Then, we cold process our oats so they maintain those nutrients and active enzymes until you cook them. 

This means that our "Double Protein Oats" maintain their naturally occurring nutrients better than other brands and we don't have anti-nutrient growth like phytic acid (the phytase enzyme keeps phytic acid from developing). 💪🏻

There are so many diets out there – paleo, keto, low fat, low calorie, etc. 

What if before starting any of these diets, we just cut out processed foods and ate only nutritious, clean food? 

How much weight, anxiety and depression would go away with simple eating?

Seems worth a try, doesn’t it?

IRON is important for so many functions in the body. Here's just a few:

- Your body uses iron to make hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body; the oxygen brings you energy.

- Iron is also used for myoglobin which provides oxygen to muscles, making you stronger.

- Iron overload can cause health complications, possibly including insulin resistance. Iron you get through iron won't overload your system but you probably consult with a doctor if you regularly use cast iron pots or take supplements.

Can your breakfast bowl have enough naturally occurring iron to help you stay healthy? Yes! A serving of our Double Protein Oats has 15% of your daily need. That's more than double the amount in the leading brand!

How do we do that? First, our farmers grow a specialty seed with high nutrient content. Second, we don't heat treat our oats because heat damages nutrients. 💪💪💪 

And, that's why ZEGO is our go-to option for breakfast!

How much do you spend on supplements and herbs? They can be an investment for sure. But if you are drinking a lot of alcohol or eating junk, you can't benefit very much from the subtle, beneficial elements of herbs.

Make sure you get their full benefit by eating clean, nutritious food like ZEGO!

Great question, and thanks to a 2022 study by As You Sow, we now know the answer.

Cadmium - Cadmium is highest in the cacao used to make cocoa and chocolate liquor (a component of your chocolate bar). It comes from the soil so the amount will vary region by region, and even farm by farm. It is mostly a problem in Latin America v. other chocolate-growing regions of the world.

Lead - On the other hand, lead is not absorbed through the cacao tree but gets into chocolate during the post-harvest handling of the wet cacao pods. The lead can transfer from tarps, tools, roadside, concrete drying pads, and even water and air. 

Want to read more? Check out all 300+ pages of the As You Sow report 🔗in bio.

SPROUTING SECRETS REVEALED!

Paying more for sprouted grains or legumes because you want better nutrition and digestibility?

Listen in to the latest Food Gossip for the trick some in the sprouted industry do to get around sprouting while still making a sprouting claim. Colleen shares what you should ask the company to ensure your sprouted products were processed correctly.

Sprouting is labor-intensive and dangerous because it adds water into the processing of the product over multiple days. So sprouted packaged products need to be given extra care to ensure they are plenty dry before going into the bag.

Our Founder @colleen_kavanagh_z breaks down her tips on how to know if your sprouted products are legit.

What are your memories or stories of what your great-grandmother used to eat?

Borscht, Irish Stew, Curry, Tamale’s? 

To be sure, they weren’t eating processed food with ingredients you have to look up and still don’t understand. 

But they also weren’t drinking smoothies with superfood powders taken from the Amazon Rainforest and powdered collagen derived with chemicals. You see, you don’t need those supplement powders if your food is unprocessed and nutritious.

You just need pure food. We are happy to provide it for you.

One of our favorite influencers, Amanda @plant__creations developed this beautiful Peanut Butter Cookie recipe for us and with a delicious kiss of maple syrup and coconut sugar! You’re going to want to save this recipe.

And, be sure to follow Amanda for other amazing plant-based recipes and tips!

INGREDIENTS:
1+1/2 cups oat flour (made using ZEGO’s gluten-free Double Protein Oats)
1 tsp baking powder 
pinch of salt 
1/2 cup natural peanut butter (or sub for sunflower seed butter)
1/4 cup pure maple syrup 
1/4 cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
2 tbsp water 
1 tsp vanilla extract 
2/3 cup chocolate chunks 

METHOD:
Preheat the oven to 350 and line a baking sheet with some parchment paper. Make your oat flour by adding the oats to a blender and blend on high until a fine flour forms. 

In a large bowl, add in the oat flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well. 

In a small bowl, add in the peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut sugar, water, and vanilla. Combine well until smooth. 

Pour the wet ingredients in the bowl with the dry ingredients and combine until the cookie dough comes together. Fold in your chocolate chunks.

Using a cookie scoop, scoop out the cookies and place on the baking sheet. Flatten each one a little as they will not spread out much in the oven. Bake at 350 for about 13 minutes. Let cool and enjoy! Keep stored in an airtight container at room temp or in the fridge for longer.
