The other problem is that if you are gluten intolerant, most oatmeal is usually cross-contaminated with wheat.


Hi Water Lily,

All carbs raise blood sugar. The trick is to add fat (butter) and then the spike isn't so bad.

Not everybody is gluten-intolerant. No celiacs would ever go near oatmeal, unless it were labelled gluten-free.
