Sadly, about 1 in 4 women and 1 in 100 men seen for VA health care report a history of MST when screened by a VA provider. Although the percentage among women is much higher, given the far greater number of men in military service, there are significant numbers of both men and women who have experienced MST.
Hulless oats are tender, have a mild sweetness and very quick to sprout. You can enjoy them within a day or continue the sprouting process for up to three days. They contain a large amount of soluble and insoluble fiber. Great for breakfast, late night cereal snack, in raw breads and dehydrated raw cookies.
My 17-month-old loves popcorn; we make it on the stovetop and usually bite off the hull part and give him the puff part, with the thinking that the hulls are sometimes hard for adults, much less kids. The stovetop stuff does have a heartier hull and can get stuck in your throat, etc.
