Regardless of the type of diabetes you have, yes, you can eat oatmeal… but what kind you eat, how much you eat, and how you eat it matter.

One of the primary reasons that oatmeal is considered a heart healthy food and is often recommended for people with diabetes is because of its fiber content. Half a cup of oats has about 4g fiber. Specifically, oats contain beta-glucan fiber, which can help overall gut health and blood sugars from rising rapidly. I’ll also note that half a cup of oats gives you 5g protein as well.

But, which type of oats is best? You’ve got everything from whole grain oat kernels, or groats, all the way down to quick oats. Generally speaking, increased processing of the oats means less fiber… but honestly, it’s not a ton of a difference. So, as a dietitian I do recommend sticking with rolled oats or steel cut oats, but honestly I’m more concerned about what you’re eating with your oatmeal rather than the type of oatmeal you’re eating.

#ad DIY Individual Charcuterie Cups with California Grapes are the perfect appetizer to share with friends and family this time of year! … and any time of year really!

Fat, fiber, and protein act as “buffers” on your body’s blood sugar response. They slow down how quickly your body can absorb sugar and other forms of carbohydrate. This means the highest blood sugar your body will reach after eating should be lower when fat, fiber, and protein are included, as shown above. You are also less likely to experience steep blood sugar swings, and better able to achieve blood sugar balance.
