This is the power of PFF (Protein • Fat • Fiber). Only one bowl spiked my glucose, comment your choice below. When carbs are paired with protein, healthy fats and fiber, digestion slows, and creates a much slower response to blood sugar. Especially important for prediabetes, insulin resistance, and midlife women. I avoided oats for years!!! Until I wore a CGM that showed me I was just eating them wrong ! You don’t have to cut carbs. You just need to pair them smarter.
