HK3's Journal, 02 October 2021

I’m at the point where I’m diving into the minutiae of nutrition facts now. One packet of maple and brown sugar steel cut oats is nearly identical to a same-size serving of plain quick oats…except for some mineral and vitamin differences and…the SUGAR. While healthy, the steel cut oats have 8g of added sugar. The plain oats has 0, obviously. Just had my first bowl of plain oats with stevia and cinnamon. A bit harder to eat, that’s for sure…I can see why we mix the oats into protein shakes now!

Try SWERE brown sugar. It is a sugar alcohol and has carbs listed but they are completely eliminated and do not have to be counted, and it does not affect blood sugars for diabetics. I don’t do a lot of sugar substitution, but when I do, SWERVE or Lakanto monk fruit are my go to. I substitute SWERVE for half the sugar when I bake. No one ever notices and it does not change the taste or texture of the product. I have an over abundance of friends with either type 1.5 or type 2 diabetes and obesity. It’s all about portion control, moderation and trying to mitigate the effects of some of the foods we enjoy.. small changes that allow you to enjoy your life.
