do oats raise blood sugar
If you like oatmeal try cooking steel cut oats. They are almost totally unprocessed and the GI is lower. Another thing, you do not have to load your oatmeal with sugars or sweeteners to enhance the taste! Simply add stevia and if you like brown sugar, add 1/2 tsp unsulphered molasses with the stevia. The most important thing to keep oats from spiking your blood sugars is to eat a good fat or protein with it such as almond butter or even whey powder. This stops the spike cold. Also, do not eat a fruit at the same time as the startchy carbs. This accelorates the spike.
