Oatmeal

I eat a big bowl of this and I actually get very hot and start sweating. No joke. lol
Anyone else like this?

Is it hot when you eat it?

Sounds like when a diabetic takes in too many carbs @ one sitting.
Not saying you are; but I’ve seen the same happen when a few diabetic friends have taken in more carbs than they alloted for in their insulin intake. (controlled by a pump)

Yup, same thing happens with coffee (caffeine thermogenisis and heat?), and most hot foods. I don’t think it has anything to do with insulin, at least in most cases.

yeah but so is most of the food I eat…a big hot bowl of soup won’t do the same…nor anything else I can think of…just oatmeal…

You are likely HOPEFULLY very insulin sensitive. Is this old fashioned oats or the processed minute or instant stuff.

I eat a BIG old serving of carbs and sweat like a pig veins pop out etc. Its due to agin the insulin sensitivity and my body saying DAMN we got a massive amoutn of carbs here pulse reaises etc.

I have had blood work doen every 6 montsh and Glucose level is great etc.

Id venture to guess i is this is you have been fitness minded for a long while and is this something new the oats have you been restricting carbs. Again is it real whole old fashioned oats or instant/minute the old fashioned will be much lower GI/II and digest slower cause a much lower response

Cooked oatmeal happens to retain heat better than most foods.

I have a question about this. I’m not comparing the sugary packets to unfooled-around with oatmeal. But is there any differenceas far as GI goes betweem the 1 minute oats and those that take two minutes in the microwave?

They both just list ‘raw oats’ as the ingredients. And look nutritionally identical as far as fiber, carbs, etc…I can’t imagine there’d be a difference. But what accounts for the quicker cooking time?

The more the oats are chopped up and processed like that, the “worse” they are for you. They’ll be digested faster, I think, hence the higher GI value.

Who the fuck drinks soup? Seriously guys.

never said I “drink” it…it would be more accurate to say that I eat it…it has chunks of beef, potatoes, and other vegetables in it…a lot of people eat soup…it’s not a beverage…

Does this mean that blending oats for a shake turns them into a high GI carb?

Thanks

You don’t like soup?

Soup is great!

No. That’s why I think that response must be flawed.

I love soup. Who the fuck doesn’t like soup?

I drink soup. In fact, I drink about two cans at a time since I’m too lazy to use a spoon. Why,you’ve got a problem with it?

It does raise the response, but I don’t know whether they would be classified as “high.”

As far as the GI goes on plain oatmeal,there isn’t much of a difference between instant and whole rolled oats. Just make sure it’s not the instant sugar-filled packets.
