How to consume oats with milk and fruits without glucose spikes

Add Protein and Healthy Fats

Include a source of protein and healthy fats with your meal, such as a handful of nuts (almonds, walnuts) or a spoonful of Greek yogurt. These can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Low-Sugar Fruits

Opt for fruits like berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries) instead of high-sugar fruits like bananas. Berries have a lower impact on blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Cinnamon

Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to your oats. Cinnamon has been shown to help lower blood sugar spikes by improving insulin sensitivity.

Mind the Portion Size

Reduce the portion size of oats and milk. Consider using a smaller bowl or reducing the quantity to ensure you're not consuming an excessive amount of carbohydrates in one sitting.

Add Fiber

Boost the fiber content of your meal by adding chia seeds or flaxseeds to your oats. Fiber can help slow down digestion and prevent large spikes in blood sugar.

Eat a Balanced Meal

Ensure your meal is balanced with a good ratio of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. This balance can aid in maintaining steadier blood sugar levels.

Opt for Steel-Cut Oats

If you're not already doing so, switch to steel-cut oats instead of instant or rolled oats, as they are less processed and have a slower rate of digestion.

Drink Green Tea

Consider having a cup of green tea with your meal. Green tea has antioxidants that may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar spikes.

Stay Active Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating. Physical activity can help your muscles use glucose more efficiently, reducing blood sugar levels.

Monitor Your Response

Pay attention to how your body responds to different combinations of foods and adjust accordingly. Keep a food journal if necessary to track what works best for you.
