The best type of oatmeal is steel cut oatmeal because
this is as close to the tree as you will get. The only
drawback to steel cut oatmeal is the 30 minute cook
time.
Steel cut oatmeal is then rolled flat into old fashioned
oatmeal. This decreases the cook time to 5 minutes
on the stove. Old fashioned oatmeal is great because
it still absorbs into the body slow enough to keep
insulin levels at bay, and it still takes only a minute
to cook in the microwave.
Manufacturers
chop old fashioned oatmeal into quick cooking oatmeal.
Quick cooking oatmeal cooks faster but also gets processed
faster by your body. This is good for convenience
but bad for blood sugar/insulin levels.
The reason
Quaker “Weight Control” oatmeal doesn’t
count as a good choice because it contains maltodextrine,
a high glycemic carbohydrate. In addition, there is
a long list of ingredients
on the label when the only ingredient should be oatmeal.
