Throughout human history, a diverse array of common foods and plants have served as medicinal remedies. While some have been supplanted by modern medicine, others have experienced a resurgence.
I like to take all of this stuff into account when I'm planning our meals out. I think we eat blueberries almost every day (steel cut oats + banana + blueberry is about as simple as it gets, and I have that every day). I'm also an enormous fan of dark chocolate, and coffee has at least been discussed as "good for your brain." Good enough for me!
Nice, I usually add blueberries and ground flax to steel cut oats. But speaking of dark chocolate, it also goes good in the oats, like a very dark chocolate, over 70% is what I like to go with, dark.
I usually do oats with berries/flax every other day and eggs with avocados, good fat and protein on the other days. I drink coffee every morning, gotta have that, but breakfast is usually fairly simple for me, sometimes a little bacon might sneak its way in there but not regularly.
Nice, you're getting a lot of very good nutrients just based on breakfast. That's kinda my strategy, too - I figure if I eat crap later in the day, at least I have that one square meal in my belly no matter what.
In my experience with my own health, there's quite a bit a healthy diet can take care of, heart issues, diabetes, blood pressure, etc. I refuse to eat a poor diet, then take a bunch of prescriptions counter my bad choices.

Neat, I've never tried that! Do you eat oats most days? What's your breakfast routine?

Wow! Love this! Useful home remedies that so many of us forget to use. I even read you can lower cholesterol with healthy diet.
