How to consume oats with milk and fruits without glucose spikes
Add Protein
Include a source of protein such as a boiled egg, Greek yogurt, or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts to your meal to help slow the absorption of sugar.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Add a small amount of healthy fats like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a slice of avocado. These can help in slowing down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Choose Steel-Cut Oats
Opt for steel-cut oats instead of instant oats as they are less processed and take longer to digest, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Mind the Portion Size
Keep your portion of oats moderate and balance it with other low-carbohydrate foods to manage the overall intake of carbohydrates in the meal.
Add Cinnamon
Sprinkle cinnamon on your oats. This spice may help to improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar levels.
Limit High-Sugar Fruits
Choose berries, such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries, as they have a lower impact on blood sugar compared to fruits like bananas or grapes.
Pre-Meal Exercise
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, before having your meal to help prepare your body to better manage blood sugar spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink a glass of water before your meal to help manage digestion and slow down the absorption of sugars.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly, as slower eating can help with better digestion and blood sugar control.
Monitor Consistently
Keep track of your blood sugar responses to different combinations of oats, milk, and fruits to identify what works best for you in minimizing spikes.
