---------------------------------------------------
Oatmeal has been touted as a nutritious breakfast option. But with its high carb amount, will it cause blood sugar spikes?
1) The oat, or AVENA SATIVA, is a cereal grain, and it can be rolled, crushed, or steel-cut to create the final oatmeal product. Oats are loaded with protein, vitamins, and dietary fiber.
2) 1 cup of oatmeal contains between 145 and 215 calories, and it supplies 5.75 grams of beneficial protein - a higher amount than most other grains.
3) Oats supply beneficial nutrients, including magnesium, zinc, phosphorous, folate, and vitamin B1, which has been shown to help reduce high blood pressure, lower blood sugar, and improve insulin levels.
4) Oatmeal also supplies polyphenol antioxidants called AVENANTHRAMIDES, anti-inflammatory compounds which can help to decrease blood pressure.
5) Oats contain BETA-GLUCAN, a soluble fiber which can slow the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream.
6) Avoid INSTANT oats, as they'll have a higher glycemic index than traditional oats, and they'll most likely be loaded with added sugars and unhealthy preservatives.
7) Avoid adding excessive amounts of full-fat milk, sugary additives, and dried fruits. They will all raise the calorie, carb, and sugar amount of your bowl of oatmeal.
8) For a healthy but flavorful addition, try a sprinkling of cinnamon. This sweet spice may reduce the risk of heart disease and diabetes, aid in blood sugar regulation, and improve brain functionality.
9) It's important to pair your oatmeal or other carb-heavy foods with a small amount of lean protein or healthy fats. They can help your system slow digestion and the introduction of glucose into the bloodstream.
10) If you suffer from high blood sugar, it's best to limit your portion size of both oats and milk, and it's important to monitor your blood sugar levels both before and after your meal.

My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article kzfaq.infoUgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0I5i At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.

I was very upset and could not believe the spike in my glucose from eating old fashioned oatmeal. I actually was pissed. I have been told by Dr, dietitians, and from many sources how good it was for controlling glucose.. I ate the oatmeal plain, cooked in water and it increased my glucose levels. I never would have known this until I started wearing a libre freestyle glucose sensor.

It is really important that you defer to HER doctor for any health information. I know this is a drag and not a fast answer, however, when talking about an infant, toddler or any age child, always defer to the well trained, educated expert. If you are not comfortable with their answer, by all means seek a second opinion, a doctor that is even MORE well trained in diabetes treatment. Perhaps a specialist. Most importantly, DO get expert opinions, DO NOT put it off, you know your child better than anyone else, trust yourself if you feel like something is just not quite right. When it comes to a child, error on the side of caution, better safe than sorry. Please Be Safe, Happy, Healthy and most important; Be Kind - Kindness Counts.

I stopped eating oatmeal and I don't care what the experts say, it definitely spiked my glucose too much, it was still high after 2 hours when it is supposed to go back to normal. I only ate plain oatmeal with no sugar. It may work for a lot of diabetics but not me.

Forget about the flat oatmeal or the quick oatmeal. Eat only steel cut oats. It supposedly spikes your blood pressure less. I also read eating some protein helps keep the spike down. Eat an egg or a couple of pieces of bacon with the oats. I also add hemp protein powder to it, figuring that additional fiber will help. I sweeten it with pure monk fruit sweetener. Give that a try. Cheers!

Here is my advice (been a type #1 diabetic since 1990) everything you eat will spike your B.S. the key to a good A1C is coordinating insulin vs what your eating at that meal. Many doctors have said not to increase or decrease the amount of my daily insulin intake (injections). Guess what? it's the only way to manage your blood sugars properly. Take control of your body, you're the boss of your body, period.

Agree. I know my carb intake to insulin dose to bring my blood sugars into the 80-100 range in two hours. Love oatmeal but will not eat it nor cereal. I think it’s crazy to promote these foods. Can some people manage high carb diets,absolutely, but one needs to know if their body can manage big carb intakes. If so, go for it but be careful as throughout the years your pancreas may stop making enough insulin.

It's fantastic, what you are doing for you! I love hot cereals always made with water for me. I keep my portions small, add no sugars, it's not half bad plain with just a bit of low fat cow's milk (1/2 cup or less) for sweetness and flavor. I also add just a tiny pinch of salt when cooking, I have no restrictions on salt intake from my doctor because I already keep my intake quite low. Processed foods are the worst to eat of ANYTHING, loads of additives that are not necessary and not always good for you. Also the processing often takes out nutrients that are beneficial. The closer to nature the food is, usually the better it is, not ALWAYS but more often than not. Don't be tempted to cook the goodness out of your foods.

I was pre diabetic but stopped snacking tweaked my diet to a lower carbohydrate one and lost 30lbs in weight and my blood sugars returned to normal levels. I have rolled oats three times a week and although it does spike my blood sugars a little the benefits outway the negatives. There are no hard or fast rules, you need to work out what suits you.

My A1C came down 7.0 from 7.5. I started eating about 1/2 cup to 1 cup of oatmeal with 1/4 - 1/2 cup of blueberries depending on days whether I do 1 hour of circuit training in the morning or a day off (or two slices of Dave's 21 grain bread with avocado). My pattern was starting to eat about 600 - 700 in the morning so I don't eat as much in the evening. On a healthy food intake day the following morning despite the dawn effect, my blood sugar in the morning before eating has been in the 120's to the low on 130's and before dinner between 95 - 103. Kind of a tricky process before figuring out the good and bad.

I have Diabetes 2, and I cannot eat oatmeal because within an hour after I eat it, I am really hungry. For breakfast, I eat one chicken apple sausage and one piece of Ezekial flourless bread, and one small cup of coffee. This lasts for three hours until it is time for lunch.

If you’re diabetic it’s the worst thing you can eat in the morning. It pure carbs. It spikes your blood sugar. The best breakfast for a diabetic is no carbs 2 eggs I strip of bacon about 4 Oz of steak and at least half an avocado if not the whole thing. Milk in the oats also turns into sugar. I bet you feel a slump towards lunch.

Good or bad it really depends on your diet. If you eat a low glycemic diet it may or may not work. If you eat a low carb diet to lower total insulin you need, then oats are out as far as you diet goes.

Generally I do keto which fixed my diabites 2, but I'm not orthodox. I know I need my cheat days to satisfy my body's needs. I live in food desert of sorts *, so sure if I was rich I could be more pure. However, generally my breakfast is black coffee. How I feel is important so if I want oatmeal, so a cheat day, I make instant oats with black coffee. It is fine. The blandness of the oats is .... coffee oats !! No added sugar. Over time I've discovered that at first if I ate oats it was a whole cheat day, (rationalization at play ) but as I learned to listen to my gut, I find now that now just the coffee oats is the whole cheat, because I'm getting something that I needed. However, my whole point, no matter your diet, is that "coffee oats" are grrreat !!! , with no added sugar. * I'd love to make steel cut coffee oats, somehow, but one of the cost of living in on my tropical island is no steel cut oats. So it goes. But instant or not, let's talk about coffee oats being a better way then a spoonful of sugar to help the oats, so the soluble fiber, what I've come to think might be part of why I want oats, go down. If you try coffee oats tell us what you think.

I've been type 1 diabetic for over forty years. I eat oatmeal everyday, I check my b.s at least six times a day, I'm also on the DAFNE system, be the boss of your own body, adjust insulin as needed and don't be afraid, doctors can advise but the true expert is yourself. You know better than anyone, if you don't, I suggest you study, it'll make your life a lot easier and please don't take these videos as gospel.

@@duplicateify Doctors are the ones who determine if a patient should adjust their insulin, there is NO blanket statement, like yours, that fits all situations, so the best thing to do is have the person defer to their doctors, not take any statement of no insulin adjustment at all. You could scare someone into thinking they are doing wrong when a doctor has given parameters for that person to adjust their insulin. There are doctors who KNOW their patients who say, if your glucose is "this level and under, do this this this" or if your glucose is "this different level" then do so and so..... it depends upon the doctor and the patient and no one else should get into the middle of that with a blanket statement, one size NEVER fits ALL.
