Hello and Happy Thursday!
I'm still working out like crazy my dear darlings. All my spare time is either spent at the gym or jogging with Jinx. Working out is so good for you, not only do you get a killer body but you also lower your cholesterol level. Just like healthy food does too.
And that brings me to this awesome heart friendly bread by Vaasan bread company that I had a chance of tasting not too long ago. Vaasan provided me with their new Kaurasydän bread that is said to lower your cholesterol.
I probably haven't mentioned that my cholesterol level is a tad bit over what it should be, so I'm very interested about products that help to lower it. That is why I was keen to taste Vaasan Kaurasydän bread (*Oat heart in English*).
Vaasan promises that if you eat 3 slices of this bread each day, you should be able to see lowered cholesterol level within 2-3 weeks. Of course results vary depending on a person. Since I didn't eat the bread that long or went to test out my cholesterol levels again, I can't say if it works or not. What I did notice though was the fact that Kaurasydän is full of fiber. My stomach was working very regularly in the course of few days I ate it.
Also Kaurasydän bread is really yummy. I enjoy the taste of oats to begin with, so Kaurasydän is right up on my alley. They have three delicious flavors; apple-muesli, carrot and regular oat. I can't pick my favorite because I liked them all. I ate the bread mostly in the mornings as well as in the evenings. I just popped it in a toaster for a minute and then spread some margarine on it. Yummy!
The texture of the bread is kinda soft and floppy. It has a nutty feel to it even though it doesn't have nuts. It is the oats that do that. Scott didn't like it but he ate it anyway though. I loved the texture.
Exciting new product that gets my two thumbs up. Thanks Vaasan!
