SydBarrett said:Ok, putting aside the fact that I know virtually nothing of glycemic indexes what you said doesn't make sense to me. How could plain oatmeal be a low glycemic index food when chewed but not when blended. Blending doesn't change the chemical composition of the food, it only does what my teeth are supposed to do and that is grind the food for easier breakdown and absorption into my body. If you insist that you know what you're saying then I'll accept that since, as I said, I know virtually nothing of glycemic indexes. But I think you might want to rethink the whole oatmeal thing.
right on
I too was confused by this. I know that plain old-fashioned oatmeal is low-glycemic wether it's chewed or blended. The only thing that might change it is if you add sugar or something else to it.
