How to consume oats with milk without glucose spikes

Add Protein

Include protein-rich foods such as nuts or seeds (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or chia seeds) to your oats. This can help slow down digestion and reduce the spike.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Mix in a tablespoon of nut butter or a small amount of flaxseed or coconut oil to your oats. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Choose Steel-Cut or Rolled Oats

Opt for less processed oats like steel-cut or rolled oats instead of instant oats, as they have a slower digestion rate.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle cinnamon on your oats. This spice is known to help regulate blood sugar levels.

Include Fiber

Top your oats with fiber-rich fruits such as berries or apple slices. The added fiber helps slow the absorption of sugar.

Drink Water

Stay hydrated by drinking water before or with your meal, as it can aid in digestion and help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Smaller Portions

Reduce the portion size of oats and pair it with other low-carbohydrate foods to balance the meal.

Opt for Plant-Based Milk

Consider using unsweetened almond milk or other lower-carb milk alternatives instead of regular milk to reduce carbohydrate content.

Exercise After Eating

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

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your body's response to different types and amounts of oats and milk, and adjust your intake accordingly.
