Dr Oz: Balance Blood Sugar With Oatmeal & Cinnamon
The number one thing you want to avoid if you are stressed is a blood sugar spike, and ultimate crash, that often occurs during your busy day. Dietitian Mitzi Dulan said the best way to avoid that spike in your glucose level is by eating the right foods that help to balance your glucose, which is a combination of protein, fiber and healthy fat.
Dr Oz: Stress-Free Glucose-Balancing Breakfast
- ¾ cup raw oatmeal
- ½ cup hemp milk
- 1 teaspoon sliced almonds
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
Combine the oatmeal and hemp milk and cook in the microwave for about 1 minute and 45 seconds. Add more milk to get your desired consistency. Sprinkle with sliced almonds and cinnamon and enjoy!
