Thanks for the update my husband have high cholesterol and I gave him rolled oats every morning and when he did his blood works the doctor gave him a clean bill and told him to continue with his diet

Sir, you made it Clear that Basically rolled oats and oats with bran are good. Thanks for sharing this information.

I was the THIRD generation in my family that your father treated for diabetes. Good to see you presenting this informative video. Thanks very much. Some observations of mine on this subject. I agree with what you have said. But from real life experience, please look at the availability and the exorbitant prices of rolled oats and steel cut oats in India. I think whole oats (groats) are a very good cereal especially for diabetics. It is not even easily available in India, and the few brands that may be available are exorbitantly priced, much higher than quick cooking oats. I thought that the more processing involved the higher the prices should be
It is the other way around. Maybe, very knowledgeable specialists like you can highlight this to the people concerned and help reduce the cost of groats, rolled oats, etc. Once again, thanks for the post.

Nice to know the differences between the two types of oats. Steel cut oats and the other one. The one with the bran has more nutritious and doesn’t increase the glycemic index, hence it is a good item for breakfast.
Thank you Dr. VM for clarifying the differences between the two and its benefits to a diabetic patient as a person who has BP too. Even Colon Cancer can also be avoided, constipation……Some diabetologists also recommend not to eat oatmeal due to the high glycemic index of the other type and it is an eye 👁️ opener for me too since l am a diabetic person for about 12 years. It’s a very educative video

Everyone is different. Use CGM to find the impact on sugars. Focus on Indian millets than oats..

[jyotsnanarayanan]

Thank you for the useful information. Is oat bran better than rolled oats and steel cut oats?

[dannyuttam]

Made it so simple to understand sir, another viral video on the way 💐🙏

[bharati]

Very beautifully explained about oats. Where do we get steel cut oats that is good for diabetic patients?

[vister]

Actually steal cut oats/bran oats are very yummy. Just dont take too much 1-2 tbsp with lots of seeds, nuts, and some berries then you will feel really full.

Hi Doc, Thanks much for the videos! A quick question for you - my A1C ranged from 6.0 to 6.8 in the past few years. It is currently at 6.5. I am not on any medication. Should I take Metformin? Please advise.

[luvvcnn]

🙏 SIR. Thanks for making it so simple & clear.

So after listening to you my take is that "steel cut" are the best.
Am i correct doctor?
PLEASE reply 🙏
God Bless You 🙏

[beverleybrangman]

Thank you this has been very helpful. I have only just started in last weeks eating the steel cut oats. prior to that, I only ate granola with the rolled oats, and lots of seeds. I am now wearing the continuous monitor and confirm that what you say is true for me. So sorry to hear it is so costly in India. Here in Bermuda, a lot of things are also exorbitant BUT oats only cost about $4.00 a pound for organic, and $5.95 when prepackaged . Tomorrow I will try the Buckwheat groats after soaking.

For more than a decade, I grappled with the relentless challenges of diabetes. I navigated through a maze of treatments, each promising a glimpse of hope, but none delivering the lasting relief I longed for. It felt like an endless, uphill battle. I was s
