I eat oatmeal every morning. I use the rough cut type, add a little sweetener, some plain cocoa, some blueberries, strawberries, cranberries (unsweetened) 1/2 banana and a little oleo. It is great, filling, and does not spike my blood sugar. I am on an insulin pump and so I provide the proper dosage and reap the benefits.
It has lowered my cholesterol levels and my blood pressure and my endocrinologist says to stick with it.
