Yeah, that is the bad news about oatmeal....carbs. And in order for it to taste good for me I load it with raisins, and brown sugar, so I get even more. Oh well.....Still, I do not want to take a statin and fortunately my doc is ok with that.
> oatmeal....carbs
The right mix of molasses and sucralose works well for me ... but the oatmeal itself does give a blast of carbs.
Hey, as long as your blood sugar is OK, and you don’t put on a bunch of weight, it’s all good. Individuals vary in their body’s response to things. With type 2 diabetes in my family, sugar is like poison for me. Also, since the normal human lifespan is about 80 years, anyone who survives into their eighties and beyond ought to consume whatever they want and avoid doctors and tests unless they have symptoms that bother them. Treat a broken bone - definitely. Have a colonoscopy - no way.
