How to consume Oats Cereal (Instant, Dry, Fortified) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Start by reducing the portion size of the oats cereal you consume. Smaller portions help manage glucose levels more effectively.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein like Greek yogurt, nuts, or an egg alongside your cereal to slow down digestion and reduce the spike.

Include Healthy Fats

Mix in healthy fats such as chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small amount of nut butter. These help slow carbohydrate absorption.

Pair with Low-Carb Vegetables

Combine your oats with a small salad or some sliced cucumbers to balance the meal.

Opt for Whole Oats

If possible, choose steel-cut or rolled oats over instant oats, as they are less processed and can lead to a more gradual glucose increase.

Add Berries

Top your oats with berries like blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries, which are high in fiber and help moderate blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before or during your meal to help with digestion and maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Cinnamon

Sprinkle some cinnamon on your oats, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your muscles use up the glucose.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and focus on your meal to allow your body to process the food more efficiently, potentially reducing spikes.
