Because they are a whole grain, they have more nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and fiber, then other processed grains. Oats also have more soluble fiber than most grains, much of which is beta-glucan, thought to be beneficial for cholesterol.
To try to quantify how big the difference is between the optimal temperature for men vs. women, researchers from Maastrict University in the Netherlands recruited 16 women to sit inside a temperature chamber set at 75.2 degrees Fahrenheit (or 24 degrees Celsius), on the warmer end of a typical setting for an office.
If we look at the research that gives us 71.5 degrees F as the optimal temperature and 100% productivity we only go down in productivity as temperature increases or decreases. As temperature increases: 1  at 77 degrees F we're about 98% productive. 2  82 degrees F = 95%.3  87 degrees F = 90%. 4  92 degrees F = 85%.t may seem like common since that the working at a comfortable temperature would make you more productive, but what may not be apparent is how much of a difference just a couple of degrees can make in that very same productivity and your overall office ergonomics.
