Here’s an easy breakfast option that’s a cinch to prep the night before, and it packs an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant-rich punch. Whole-grain oats don’t have to be cooked if you stir in your favorite non-dairy milk and let them soak in the refrigerator for several hours. By adding turmeric, ginger and black pepper, you are protecting your body, too.
