About 30% of people with diabetes do not tolerate gluten from wheat, barley, rye or oats. 70% of people will tolerate small amounts of things like steel cut oats, oat bran, or quinoa, or Ezekiel sprouted bread that does not use any flour. By small amounts I'm talking about 1/4 cup or one slice.
You have to test your blood sugar to see how you tolerate it. The things like " whole wheat" means nothing. Quick or instant oatmeal is just empty calories. You can look for double fiber breads that may or may not work for you. 2 servings of whole grains is max per day. A serving is one slice of whole grain bread or 1/4 to 1/2 cup of steel cut oats or oat bran or quinoa (which is really a seed but acts like a grain). Avoid corn unless you know it is organic. That includes chips and tortillas and corn on cob and corn bread. All cornbread or baking mixes are full of Trans fats and those will only serve to make you
More insulin resistant
