I normally eat all of them except for barley 🤢 and oats because they said oats were high in carbs, and they make you fat. So what is it? 🤷‍♀️ yea or nay on oats?
Oats are for goats, humans should not eat them. Like you say too high in carbs you might as well eat a candy bar.
Take it from a 84 year old me, it is HOW much you eat, not WHAT you eat. I still weigh same as at age 25,
5’-8” and 150 lbs. I eat ice cream almost every day.
I essentially live on oatmeal because of food sensitivities.
No, oats will NOT make you fat.
What you put on them may, but plain oatmeal won't.
I lost weight when I switched from wheat to oats.
Don't know about barley, however barley is a good lower carb grain. I make beef barely soup with it and that's essentially all I use it for.
There's something about wheat though, that makes me pork up almost instantly. I am NOT gluten sensitive nor do I have celiac. Whatever it is, wheat makes me fat.
FWIW, oats are exceptionally nutritious. Not much on the vitamins, but good on the fiber and minerals.
Stay at the serving size, which isn’t much. But I gave them up for the same reason! Occasionally indulge during the cold of winter.
