Oats are a classic staple of most childhood mornings as a traditional breakfast food, but did you know that they are actually an incredibly healthy wholefood. Oats are among the healthiest foods you can eat, high in fibre, protein and a wealth of vitamins and minerals they really are hard to beat. What are the types of oats? Whole or jumbo oats, which are the least broken down, and therefore take longer to cook. Rolled oats, which have been roasted, steamed and flattened to remove the outer shell. Oatmeal, which has similarly been roasted, steamed and flattened, but is ideal for making porridge. Broadly speaking these oats all have similar nutritional contents, although roasting and steaming oats can very slightly reduce this. Due to their similarities, it is often best to pick oats based around what you will use them for (while also taking the health benefits into consideration). Do oats improve digestion? Oats are also packed full of insoluble and soluble fibre (both of which are very healthy) Insoluble fibre is great for aiding digestion, while soluble fibre helps to lower cholesterol and improve heart health. As well as the obvious digestive benefits, the high fibre content in oats has been shown to help establish healthy gut bacteria, and generally maintain a healthy gut microbiome. Why oats are the perfect breakfast? One of the reasons oats are primarily used as a breakfast food is because of their low glycemic index and slow releasing energy. The glycemic index refers to the speed at which carbohydrates raise glucose levels in the blood, the lower the score the slower the release of energy. The slow release of energy means that oats really can keep you powered from breakfast until lunch, without crashing in the late morning.Not only will oats keep your energy levels high, they will also make you feel fuller due to their beta glucan content. Beta glucan is a specific type of hard to find soluble fibre, which increases the water absorption in your body, this creates a feeling of fullness and helps to stop overeating, which when combined with the long lasting energy of oats makes them a really useful weight management tool. The incredible nutritional benefits of oats Oats also contain vitamins B1, B2 and inositol. Vitamin B1 (also known as thiamin) provides a boost to the nervous system, while also helping to facilitate the slow releasing energy mentioned above. Vitamin B2 (also known as riboflavin) is great for helping to maintain healthy skin and hair, while also helping to provide a strong nervous system. Inositol is unique, in that it is technically a sugar rather than a vitamin, but it helps the body to process insulin. Oats are a unique superfood, as they are not only a naturally gluten free and vegan source of protein, but they are also incredibly affordable. The amount of protein in oats is often understated in favour of its fibre contents, however dry oats actually contain around 26 grams of protein per cup! Why everyone should keep oats in their pantry? The overwhelming health benefits of oats combined with how simple they are to cook with, make them an ideal part of any balanced diet particularly for those who are struggling with their protein or fibre intake. As well as the obvious use of oats as a breakfast food, oats are also an incredibly useful ingredient for any aspiring baker adding texture, flavour and a litany of health benefits to pretty much any dish you can think of.

Introducing Wholefood Earth's new product listing - Vital Wheat Gluten.Famous for the creation of Seitan - the vegan meat alternative!Vital wheat gluten is a natural protein source found in wheat. It is a powerful flour that is almost pure gluten. It is made from wheat flour that has had the gluten activated during a dehydrating process, removing all other ingredients except the gluten. Wheat gluten has very little starch content and a fantastic way of making dough elasticated. Vital wheat gluten is great for bread making as it helps to increase the gluten content of the bake. It is equally as great used in muffins, cakes and other bakes such as tarts and pastries where you are working with yeast ingredients. A small amount added to yeast bread recipes improves the texture and elasticity of the dough. When combined with water it becomes highly elastic and has a sticky like texture. Vital Wheat Gluten is a natural and very effective raising agent, helping your bread fill out perfectly and evenly, giving it more volume. It can be especially helpful for baking bread made with whole grain flours and coarse cereals. Vital Wheat Gluten can ensure recipes that require fruit, nuts and seeds, chocolate chips etc stay firmly held together and a good binder too! Brilliant for binding Vegan Meatballs, Burgers, Tofu etc. To make Seitan: Mix Vital Wheat Gluten with spices and add water to make a dough. When the gluten dough is cooked either by steaming, baked or boiled it becomes chewy with a meat style texture! See the range of sizes online and in store today! We sell in bulk so perfect for cafes, restaurants and keen cooks alike!

Scroll through any wellness feed and you will not get far before collagen appears. It is stirred into coffee, sold as flavoured powders, added to drinks and promised on the labels of countless skincare products. For something most of us never thought about a few years ago, collagen has become one of the most talked-about words in health and beauty. So what is it really, and does it deserve the attention? Here is a clear, no-nonsense look at what collagen is, what it does, and how you can support your body's own supply through the food you eat. What collagen actually is Collagen is a protein, and it is the most abundant one in the human body. Think of it as a kind of scaffolding. It gives structure and strength to your skin, bones, tendons, ligaments and cartilage, and it helps hold everything together. When people describe skin as firm and bouncy, collagen is a big part of what they are picturing. Your body makes its own collagen naturally, building it from the amino acids in the protein you eat. The trouble is that production gradually slows with age. From your mid-twenties onwards, natural collagen levels begin to dip, and this is one of the reasons skin loses some of its elasticity and joints can start to feel less supple over time. That slow decline is a big part of why collagen has captured so much interest. Why it became so popular Most of the buzz centres on two areas: skin and joints. Supplement makers point to research suggesting that collagen may help support skin elasticity and hydration, and some studies have looked at its role in joint comfort for active people. The idea of a single ingredient that supports both how you look and how you move is an easy one to get excited about. It is worth keeping a level head, though. Research into collagen supplements is still developing, results vary between studies, and a supplement is never a substitute for a balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. If you do try a collagen product, treat it as one small part of the picture rather than a miracle fix. Is there collagen in plants? This is where a lot of confusion creeps in. Collagen is an animal protein, which means it is found in the skin, bones and connective tissue of animals and fish. There is no collagen in plants, so any product labelled as vegan collagen does not actually contain the protein itself. What these plant-based products usually offer instead is a blend of nutrients that help your body build its own collagen. That is a meaningful difference, and it is good news for anyone following a plant-based diet. You do not need to eat collagen to make collagen. You simply need to give your body the right building blocks. Feeding your body's own collagen supply Your body produces collagen using protein alongside a handful of key nutrients, and vitamin C is one of the most important. Without enough vitamin C, the body simply cannot make collagen properly, which makes it a genuine star of the show rather than a nice-to-have. To support natural collagen production, aim for a diet rich in protein from foods such as beans, lentils, nuts, seeds and wholegrains, plenty of vitamin C from fruit and vegetables, and a good range of colourful plants that deliver the zinc, copper and antioxidants your body uses along the way. Berries, citrus fruits, peppers, leafy greens and pumpkin seeds are all worth a regular place on your plate. If you want a simple way to top up your vitamin C intake, our pure Vitamin C Powder stirs easily into water, smoothies or juice. Since vitamin C plays such a direct role in collagen formation, it is one of the most sensible things to keep in the cupboard, whether or not you ever reach for a collagen product. Focus on nutrition Collagen is having its moment for a reason. It is the protein that keeps skin, joints and connective tissue strong, and its natural decline with age explains why so many people are keen to top it up. Whether you choose a supplement or not, the most reliable approach is the least glamorous one: eat well, include plenty of protein and vitamin C, and give your body the raw materials it needs to keep doing what it does best. Talked about as it is, collagen is really just a reminder of something simple. Look after your body from the inside, and it tends to show on the outside.
