My step dad gave me his recipe for oatmeal. And I must say it's the best. It contains everything that is supposed to help lower cholesterol and blood pressue. I was doing this faithfully for 1 month then I stopped and noticed that my blood pressure was rising again and a recent blood test, showed that my triglycerides were very high (thought I didn't need to change my eating habits- big mistake!) Anyway, hope you enjoy this!
