Comments on: Oats – A native superfood? http://neilkingham.com/2009/11/native-superfood-oats/ Exploring the Chinese Health Arts Thu, 17 Feb 2011 13:48:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Neil http://neilkingham.com/2009/11/native-superfood-oats/#comment-9 Neil Mon, 14 Dec 2009 15:35:52 +0000 http://neilkingham.com/?p=111#comment-9 Hi Doug. As I mentioned in the post, my other recommendation for a native British superfood is Nettles, but they're not really an alternative to oats! There is no other grain to my knowledge which has the same properties as oats, but other grains all have their own uses. The Chinese eat rice porridge, sometimes called jook or congee, which is very strengthening and easy to digest. I'll be posting about this soon, so watch this space! Neil. Hi Doug.

Unfortunately I can't remember what the alternatives were and which would be best. Any ideas? Are there natively grown superfood alternatives? Yours sincerly Doug I saw an allergy therpaist last year, and she said I was intollerant to Oats and would have to use alternatives. Unfortunately I can’t remember what the alternatives were and which would be best.

Any ideas? Are there natively grown superfood alternatives?

Yours sincerly
