Today is #WorldIBSDay and we`re celebrating with a big bowl of gluten-free organic ZEGO oats. Oats contain fiber, which keeps the digestive tract in check. Dietary fiber helps things run smoothly…all the way through! If you have iBS, make sure you`re working with a great dietitian who can point you in the right direction when it comes to an IBS-friendly diet that can include oats!

You`ve heard that fiber is important, and that most Americans aren`t getting enough of it in their diet. But how can you really tell if you`re getting enough fiber? How can you read a nutrition facts panel to tell if you`re eating enough?
According to the FDA, the daily value of dietary fiber is 28 grams per day. Keep in mind that this is based on a 2,000 calorie diet and doesn`t take into account your calorie needs – so it might be slightly higher or lower.
A nutrition facts panel on any packaged product, like our oatmeal, will show you how many grams of fiber are in each serving and compare that agains the daily recommended value. For our oatmeal, each serving contains about 5 grams of dietary fiber, or about 14% of your daily recommended dose of fiber.
A bowl of our oatmeal is a great way to start your day with fiber and protein. Look for other whole grains, fruits, vegetables, beans and nuts (depending on your dietary restrictions) to fill the rest of your fiber needs!
Learn how to read a nutrition facts panel and learn more about fiber from the FDA!

Swap your beige processed breakfast like white toast for some color! Add some muesli or superfood to a bowl of seeds and nuts and freshly cut fruit. Not only is this more appealing to your eyes (and your stomach), but you’ll increase your fiber too!

What is Fiber?
Did you know that there are TWO types of fiber – soluble vs. insoluble.
Soluble fiber dissolves in water in your digestive tract, forming a gel that slows digestion. It helps to lower your cholesterol, reduces your risk of heart disease, and stabilizes blood sugar.
Insoluble fiber does not dissolve, adding bulk to your stool to help it move through the digestive system.
Many foods contain both, and both are important for your overall health!

Today is April 1st and it’s no joke that today we’re celebrating sourdough!
April 1st is National Sourdough Bread Day, and we’re all about that #glutenfree sourdough.
Did you know that you can use our oats to make sourdough starter? Our double protein oats are raw, which means that the active enzymes can start to ferment and make sourdough starter at a quicker rate than heat-treated oats. Make into a flour or use the oats themselves to make a starter, or to add to an existing gluten-free sourdough starter. Learn more on our blog!

Sometimes we just need to trust Mother Nature and run with what`s she`s given us!
In this snippet from a Supply Chain panel at Natural Products Expo West, CEO Colleen Kavanagh talks about how we achieve our signature product – Double Protein Oats, thanks to nature, and the High Plains region of the US, and our farmers.
Mar 23
At a recent farming conference our CEO attended, we were struck by some real life examples presented by regional farmers on the effect of climate change to their farms – and their bottom line.
Mitigating the effects of climate change is so important to the future of our farms and the success of our farmers!
