How to consume Milk, Oats without glucose spikes

Choose Whole Grain Oats

Opt for steel-cut or rolled oats instead of instant oats. These are less processed and digest more slowly.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein, such as nuts, seeds, Greek yogurt, or a scoop of protein powder, to your oats to slow digestion and reduce glucose spikes.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a handful of nuts, a spoonful of chia seeds, or a drizzle of nut butter to your oats. Healthy fats help slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Incorporate Fiber

Mix in high-fiber fruits such as berries or a small amount of apple slices. This can help slow the release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Portion Control

Be mindful of the portion sizes of both milk and oats to avoid overconsumption, which can contribute to glucose spikes.

Consider Alternative Milk

Use unsweetened almond, coconut, or soy milk as an alternative to cow's milk to reduce sugar content and potential glucose spikes.

Pre-Meal Water

Drink a glass of water before eating to help with digestion and potentially reduce the blood sugar rise.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle cinnamon on your oats, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time when eating to allow your body to properly digest and process the food, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
