Letter From The President Taking time for reflection can lead to establishing realistic and obtainable goals, but also to creating a better version of ourselves.

Christina Brown, President

The new year is now upon us, with thoughts of setting goals and intentions at the forefront of our minds. Where is there room for improvement and refinement? Taking time for reflection can lead to establishing realistic and obtainable goals, but also to creating a better version of ourselves. The Board spent several hours at our annual retreat to review the Co-op’s biggest challenges and strategies to overcome them. We analyzed the factors involved, possible approaches, and the best approach to resolving those challenges. In addition, the Board sought opportunities to be a better Co-op for our owners and provide better resources to our community.

When setting new intentions for the new year, the Board wants to align our priorities with those of our owners.

Entering 2019 provides great opportunity for growth and change, but not without our owners. The Co-op is striving to continue to be the cornerstone of natural and organic foods and products for the Tallahassee community. However, in doing so, we need support and feedback. When setting new intentions for the new year, the Board wants to align our priorities with those of our owners. As a governing Board, we are tasked with developing and overseeing long term strategies for the Co-op, in keeping the best interests of our owners. As we develop our strategy, we rely on the input and feedback from owners, whether at Board meetings, suggestion cards or annual meetings. Next time you see an opportunity for improvement, complete a comment card! If your favorite item isn’t on the shelf, talk to a customer service representative about special ordering it. Take action!

Let’s make 2019 the year of action.

Christina Brown Board President

Stick with Steel-cut or Scottish Oats for a satisfying texture, or branch out with a hot breakfast made from rice or polenta!

Beyond Instant Oatmeal

These oats take between 10 and 30 minutes to cook, so I usually make a double batch and have the rest the next day.

If you have leftover cooked brown rice, quinoa or other grains, place leftovers in a pot with 1 1/2 times as much water, soy milk or milk as the grain, by volume. Bring to a simmer and cook (uncovered) until the grain is very soft but still has a little texture, about 20 minutes. Cover and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes; the porridge will thicken as it rests, but if you prefer a thicker texture, pulse briefly in a blender.

Your Complete Fiber Guide When it comes to the hierarchy of nutrients, fiber often gets overlooked. Many people think the only purpose for fiber is maintaining regularity, but this isn’t the complete picture.

Two Types of Fiber Unlike other nutrients, fiber passes through the GI tract mostly intact until it leaves the body. Not all fiber is alike, however. Different types have different properties. The two main categories are soluble fiber and insoluble fiber.

Soluble fiber: When combined with water, soluble fiber dissolves into a gel-like material. This material empties from the stomach slowly, helping with hunger levels.

Insoluble fiber: Insoluble fiber doesn’t dissolve in water, but still helps your digestive function. This draws water into the stool, supporting regularity. Insoluble fiber is responsible for many of the benefits that are associated with fiber.1

What Fiber Does for You Fiber helps your regularity by drawing water into your intestines, but it can also help you in other ways.

Having a fiber-rich meal can make you feel full earlier.

This can assist with hunger levels and portion control, and thus support weight loss.2 There are other potential areas of health that fiber can support as well. Here are some of these areas: Supporting a healthy microbiome: Perhaps you’ve heard of probiotics and a healthy gut environment. Our body is filled with millions of tiny microorganisms, and keeping them healthy is critical.

Dietary fiber acts as what is called a prebiotic, feeding the bacteria and supporting many health functions.3 Heart support: Several studies have shown that overall, a fiber-rich diet may contribute to lower levels of cholesterol in the blood. To be clear, this doesn’t mean that fiber is a replacement to a heart-healthy lifestyle. However, it may be a nice part of it. 4 Blood sugar support: Fiber-rich foods have a lower glycemic index. This means smaller spikes in blood sugar if you have carbohydrates that are also rich in fiber. Again, this isn’t a substitute for other forms of care, but it is a nice bonus.5 Good Sources of Fiber Most Americans don’t get enough fiber. Government guidelines suggest that men should aim for 38 grams of fiber per day, while women should look to get 25 grams per day. Here are a few top options: • • • • •

The two types aren’t mutually exclusive, and you should try to get both. Enzymedica's Purify Fiber Drink includes four separate sources of fiber and a wide variety of organic juice extracts.

Whole-grain products like breads and cereals Fruits like pears and berries Vegetables like broccoli, artichokes and kale The legume family, especially beans Nuts and seeds of all kinds

Your Complete Fiber Guide Continued

On top of the great food options here, some foods have additional fiber added. This is common for items like granola bars or yogurt. This is handy if you want to keep up your fiber-rich diet, but need something more portable. Just be sure to read the labels before you buy.

Along with food sources of fiber, you can also use one of many different supplemental preparations. These enable you to get both dietary fiber and nutrients that complement their functions.

A great example is Enzymedica’s Pomegranate Lemonade Fiber Drink+. This combines four different types of fiber with juice powders and extracts from pomegranate, beet, cucumber and watermelon.

Strawberries Yummy, Nutritious & Delicious

By Gretchen Hein radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) that play a role in aging and various disease processes.

What’s red, heart-shaped, belongs to the rose family, tastes sweet, is so juicy that the nectar runs down your fingers and is chock-full of nutrients?

Strawberries! As Valentine’s Day rolls around, you’ll find them dipped in chocolate, garnishing a glass of champagne, and dusted with powdered sugar.

The best berries are those that are shiny, firm and deep red with attached green caps. They should be plump and free of sand and mold. Unripe berries have green or yellow patches on their surface. Don’t expect them to ripe; since they cease ripening shortly after harvest, they’ll have a sour taste. Strawberries are highly perishable and should be purchased no more than a few days prior to use. Remove any berries that have been damaged or affected by mold so they won’t contaminate other berries. They’ll keep in the refrigerator for a few days or they can be set out in a wide bowl or on a plate covered with a paper towel.

Cover with plastic wrap if you leave them out for an extended period of time.

Strawberries are good for your bones and good for your hormones! They are an excellent source of the trace mineral manganese, essential for healthy bone structure, absorbing calcium, creating enzymes that build bone, and maintaining the proper functioning of sex hormones. Other beneficial nutrients are potassium and folate, also helping to develop bone mass. They are relatively high in fiber and have a low glycemic load so they are not likely to make your blood sugar levels spike and then crash. A study conducted at Harvard’s Brigham and Woman’s Hospital and published in the Annals of Neurology states that berries, including strawberries, can delay cognitive impairments by up to 2.5 years.

Strawberries are great eaten fresh from the container.

One of my favorite ways to consume strawberries is to slice a few into a bowl of vanilla yogurt for breakfast.

It’s a great way to start the day. For a special sweet treat I like to melt high-quality dark chocolate slowly in the microwave, or in a double boiler, and then dip and twist the strawberry and set it aside to cool. A quick dip in balsamic vinegar and a fine dusting of powdered sugar is another sweet treat. Served on a plate with room temperature Brie cheese is mighty fine. I pretty much stick to organically grown strawberries. They taste like a strawberry, if you know what I mean. An added benefit is that they seem to last a little longer in the refrigerator than conventionally grown berries.

Strawberries, a nutritious powerhouse, are low in calories and fats. They contain a wealth of healthpromoting phytonutrients, minerals and vitamins. They are an excellent source of vitamin C (100 g provides 58.8 mg, about 98 percent of RDI), helping to fight infectious agents, counter inflammation, and scavenge harmful free radicals. They have significant amounts of phenolic flavonoid phyto-chemicals called anthocyanins and ellagic acid which translates as free-radical fighting compounds. Additionally, they contain vitamin A, vitamin E and health-promoting flavonoid poly-phenolic Here are a few recipes for savory ways to enjoy antioxidants such as lutein, zea-xanthin and betastrawberries! carotene in small amounts.

pain into beauty. She was brave to understand her pain, and to turn it into a painting.

When did you first become interested in art?

Why do you love what you do?

I first became interested in art when my dad sent me a letter with a drawing he made of a cat. I turned the drawing around and tried to mimic his drawing when I was about three years old. To see a beautiful cat drawn on a piece of paper was a way for me to understand that something real could become fiction and this fiction at some point was real.

If you could work within a past art movement, which would it be?

If I could work with a past movement, I would definitely choose surrealism.

In the 20th century, surrealism used dreams and imagination as an inspiration.

Surrealism explores the human mind and I am interested on how humans interact with themselves, each other and their surroundings. In my opinion, surrealism makes what seems impossible, possible in paintings.

Which artist of the past would you like to meet?

How would you define beauty?

Beauty for me is: Truthful, simple and complicated, colorful and colorless, Free, painful, sun and rain.

If there is something, we should all do, is something we love. Art is a way for me to express the love that I feel towards justice, freedom and respect. Art helps me see things in different colors and perspectives. Seeing things in more than one way helps me navigate through the world of thoughts, problems and solutions.

To read Direne’s artist statement and view more of her pieces, please visit our Deli seating area in February.
