How to consume Oatmeal without glucose spikes
Add Protein
Incorporate a source of protein such as a scoop of protein powder, Greek yogurt, or a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts to your oatmeal. This helps to slow down the absorption of glucose.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a tablespoon of chia seeds, flaxseeds, or nut butter. Healthy fats can help to blunt the glucose response.
Choose Steel-Cut or Rolled Oats
Opt for steel-cut or rolled oats instead of instant oatmeal. These less-processed forms have a slower impact on blood sugar levels.
Add Fiber
Mix in fiber-rich fruits like berries (blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries) or an apple. Fiber slows digestion and the subsequent release of glucose.
Use Milk Alternatives
Prepare your oatmeal with unsweetened almond milk or another low-carb milk alternative instead of regular milk to reduce carbohydrate content.
Avoid Added Sugars
Skip adding sugary toppings like brown sugar, honey, or syrup. Instead, sweeten with a small amount of low-carb sweeteners like stevia or monk fruit.
Incorporate Vegetables
Blend in a portion of grated zucchini or carrots for added fiber and nutrients without significantly impacting glucose levels.
Control Portion Size
Be mindful of your serving size. Eating smaller portions can help prevent spikes in glucose levels.
Pre-Meal Hydration
Drink a glass of water about 30 minutes before eating your oatmeal. Staying hydrated can help regulate glucose levels.
Exercise Post-Meal
Engage in light physical activity, such as a 10-15 minute walk, after eating. Exercise can help your body use glucose more efficiently.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
