3:52 Differences - 7 Types of Oats
I eat both oat groats & steel-cut daily. I mix them, cook them in a rice cooker with some raisins, and cinnamon. I use one cup of each and add five cups of water (plus raisins and cinnamon) and they cook in the same time as rice. Delicious and healthy! For added taste, I add blue berries and walnuts to oatmeal bowl.
Only unhealthy part are the raisins. Dried fruit has extreme amounts of sugar.
@@ynotttt Agreed! But by dividing the lot into 7 parts, the number eaten per day is about 4 or 5, so not a big problem.
You add a poached egg and I’ll be over for breakfast 🍳 that sounds good 👌✌️
@@darrellmcmillian2085 Since I am trying to reduce/reverse heart disease, I avoid eggs as they are inflammatory to our arteries.
@@educ8me that’s why I poach them I was told they are healthier that way something about puffing up the whites ✌️
Great explanation of these different oats and their benefits. I've never heard of oat groats before, but will look more into them. Very informative video. Thanks!
So clear your explanations and you pack a lot of important info here! Thank You!
Thank you Dr. What are the GO of each type without cooking? Thanks again for your diligence.
I only use Steel-Cut Oats. Very good video and thank you for the details; God bless you doc 🙏🌹
very helpful and clear presentation, thanks!
I have absolutely been loving the presentation of your videos straight to the point but still informational thank you 👍
You're welcome. Glad you found it useful. Blessings, Dr Chan
Thank you. First time watching. Very informative
This answered my question perfectly and simply. Thank you!
Glad it helped!
I cook my steel cut oats in instant pot pressure cooker for 10 mins and it’s all set because I always want to feel the fiber when I eat my oat. Thanks for the video Dr.
I subscribed. Very good info. Thank you dr.
Steel cut all the way hommie
Tqvm Dr. Chan, Your video is so helpful. Now I can safely purchase instant Rolled oats.
I like to go to the bulk food section of my co-op market and buy steel-cut oats, oat bran, sunflower seeds, coconut flakes, raisins, and dates….and mix it all together. I store wheat-germ in the freezer and add it later. Mmm mmm mmm 😋. Very tasty!
Thank you so much for this information, Dr Chan. Is it okay to eat uncooked oats? Will that lower their GI?
Very good concise information.
AWESOME INFORMATION ‼️👍Thank You.
Glad you found it useful. Blessings, Dr Chan
Very good Dr. Chan!
I never know there are 7 different types.i always use quick cooking rolled oats.thanks for your time and info dr.this is a big help for me.god bless you
it been since long time a huge Problem for me to know better about it, and typically you brought it, Thank you so much! now I have to translate it I n local language I dont know if its possible totally I have seen the most six tipe, but the last one, am not sure If i have seen it.
Short, information dense video. Good.
Dr Chan , thanks for this video ,could you also pls mention which oats is good for diabetes and which way is best for cooking ?
Lovely information thank you
Thank you, Dr Chan.
Thanks for the info.
Thanks, Dr. Chan.
Thank you Dr Chan! 🙏😊
Smart presentation
So helpful!
Thank u Dr Chan for sharing the info on oats. Amazing
He did #1 to #7, whole oats, steel cut etc... down to the bran. What did you or I miss?
Dr. Chan, What is your advice on eating overnight oatmeal and any advantages of lowering blood cholesterol?
Very nice sir.
Excellent, Doc, excellent...
I have the steal cut oats , I usually just add boiled water from the kettle , I don’t cook them . Just add some powdered coconut milk, mixed berries, stevia some cocoa powder and cinnamon. It’s delicious
Do "overnight oats" that aren't cooked, but merely soaked in liquid in the refrigerator overnight have a different glycemic index than heat-cooked oats?
Thank you so much doctor
Just ate groats today and was wondering why I feel more satisfied but not fat like when I eat steel cut. Also my sugar is lower and only needed to add just a little to the groats. I will stick with oats groats which will be sold as Scottish oatmeal most likely
Thank you sir.
Dr. Where can I purchase certified organic oat groats. Thank you response is greatly appreciated. Tkd
What is the glycemic LOAD (not index) of steel cut oats? I can't seem to find it on the internet.
Can you comment on sprouted organic oats and GI effect please. thank you
Do the steel cut or 1st organic rolled retain their husk & if removed in further processing how much am I losing in nutrition?
So then if I put oat bran in my steel cut oats it'll make them that much better? Not that I eat a lot of oats but that's something that'd be good for me, and everyone else, to know. I think so but id rather get some confirmation on it to be certain. Thanx
Thankyou very much Doc
You are welcome. Hope you found it useful. Blessings, Dr Chan
Very nice dr
Dr,can you tell us about oat fibre
Please doctor can you teach us in Chinese medicine the best food and herb to protect the eyes and can Chinese medicine treat blindness caused by diabetes
When looking for Oat Groats do they have Sugar in them like 1g or do zero sugar once exist??
Thank you for explaining this. Please tell us what kind of oats that McDonald's sells? Their oatmeal is superior. I have tried steel cut oats but they are not like McDonalds. McDonald's oatmeal has "texture." In recent years, the oatmeal sold in stores today are NOT the same as in the past. No matter how much or as little water or cooking time, the oatmeal is "soup," too watery after you add buter, etc. McDonald's is not soupy. Also store bought oatmeal has "no texture" the oats are not "distinctive." But McDonald's oatmeal has distinctive grains. So please tell what kind of oats YOU think they use? Ty so vm ! 🤗⚘️⚘️⚘️
I would include the oat WITH the husk (aka HULL) as No. 1. It is an oat! Although humans don't eat the whole oat with the husk/hull, some animals do. And including it in the list, indicates that the oats we eat have had their husk/hull removed.. One can say that the oats we eat are slightly processed.
We aren't designed to get nutrition from Oats. We aren't hind gut fermenters
@@cornstar1253 Humans get nutrition from oats.
How is the oat bran "processed" in comparison?
Irish organic jumbo traditional oats are my oats of choice. Thick and chewy
thanks
You are welcome. Glad you found it useful. Blessings, Dr Chan
instant might come from re-steamed steel cuts at 0.3mm roller distance.
Hi, may i know which type is suit for do overnite oat?
Thank you for your videos. I haven't bought oats in awhile but when I do it's the traditional type. I can't stomach plain oats (cooked) and I have used sugar but I tend to eat more and more sugar so I cut it out and tried bananas only once. I will keep trying with fruit in the future.
Joe the secret is cinnamon! i put 1teaspoon in 1/4 steel cut oats. Never use sugar in my oatmeal. Before diabetes ideas I would use raisins to sweeten my oatmeal along with cinnamon. never sugar. no need!
@@preeta8275 Thanks! I will get cinnamon, as I have heard it from several people so far. Spices are important for whole food-plant based. Best wishes, Preeta.
@@RiDankulous 👍🏾 try to see if you can afford ceylon cinnamon instead of saigon cinnamon (if they don’t say then assume it’s saigon). for diabetics research says it’s better… but careful. not too much! can become poison i’m told! however also know barley is better than oats…. however oats n barley is a rare treat for me. i prefer chia seeds for fiber. oatmeal is my “chocolate cake”. a rare treat. still too much carbs. i do rare grains. It had to be done that way so that I can lose my addiction to grain.
@@preeta8275 Those all sound awesome! I like chia seeds. I get lots of fiber eating whole food plant based and it helps a lot for health. I'll watch out for the right cinnamon.
I also add small chunks of apples and peanut butter. At times vanilla. No sugar.
Thanks for sharing, are oats gluten free
Thank you.
Glad you found it useful
Thanks for explaining. .... a still wonder why they don’t sell oats with the bran still on... people buy the bran separately..... so... ?
No. That is not true. As the video shows, the rolled oats are whole grain, & have all 3 parts- germ, endosperm, bran. Oat bran is not whole grain, & only retains the bran portion, which is more nutritious.
Thank you for this video. Really very helpful. You earned a subscriber. Regards
I can't stand the texture of cooked oats so I've been eating organic, uncooked rolled oats every day now for 2 years. I add banana, almonds, dried cranberries or other fruit, and chia seeds or flaxseeds with plant milk. I've found that if I wake up at night and have insomnia, a bowl like this helps me get back to sleep nearly every time.
I have some steel cut oats that cook pretty quickly.
Test yourself. Use a blood glucose meter before and after oatmeal to see how it affects you. Everyone is different. Some people spike and others don’t.
I’m Diabetic. Are oats good for Diabetics and which form? tY
I like regular rolled oats,it is flaky it took me 30 mns to cook on low heat, but it is the only one that does not gives me heart burned.and it taste better.
Too high on the glycemic index. Grains in general….bad.
Where can we buy uncooked oats grains?
What about steel cut oats which are instant?
Also the Organic sprouted steel cut oats are better.
It would be great if you would list the most beneficial products from best to worse
If he listed it out, you get the benefits and maybe Dr Chan will get into trouble. yes, no ?
I think they were in order.
Just buy the Steel Cut Oats, and you’ll be fine. Avoid the instant variety.
THANK YOU for using "hence" properly! So many people can't use this word. It MEANS "that is the reason that...", but people often so "Hence that's why..." HENCE MEANS "That is why". So THANK YOU Dr Chan! Also thanks for the video!
Why steel cut oats more costly than rolled or regular or instant oats?
Can I cook Oats together with red beans ?
I like steel cut… but I had to get used to the texture.
I enjoy a bowl of Bob’s Red Mill Steel Cut Oats every morning. I add cinnamon, honey & banana 😋
So what is oatmeal then?
Fibre content oats is which in these
I only eat oat bran, mixed with ground flaxseeds.
Quaker oats is safe to eat?
What amount German oat? ,I heard Australian and US oats has too much mice hairs .
What u mean about mice hair?
Can the steel cut oat be soaked with milk without cooking?
Yes. Put one quarter oats with three quarters liquid in a container. Cover container with paper towel and leave in fridge the day before you want to eat them. Heat them in the microwave just before you eat. Enjoy.
@@ph0605 Thank you 😊
Oat groats used to fill me up when I started eating them. If I were to eat them now I'd feel hungry an hour later.. I don't know why this is. And I have a huge 5lb bag of them still. Little upset about that.
👍🏼
Would be OK for diabetics bread made from barley flour only and sour starter
Can I eat oats raw with soaking in coconut milk
I do. I soak for 12 hours in water and apple cider vinegar.. I like to keep my frequency high.. raw foods are the best for that.
Its all the same in different sizes
Hello and thank you for this detailed information.....Please tell me if the steaming process of the oats will deplete the oats from nutrients?
Pour faire court, oasts moi d’un doute
Whenever I eat oats I got stomachache.
Well, not so clearly understanding what's u mean!!! Better in the End you must clearly say which Oats is good, for DIABETES & for the Colon problems??? That's will be more useful 👍 thanks all the best.
i thought he was pretty clear. all oats are good, but the groat n steel cut are better. lower GI so good for diabetes. see the chart he showed? but the difference is just in degrees so any oats is good. i think the most important point he was making here was not about the oats itself, but the additives! what u add to the oats is what makes it dangerous! i don’t know about colon issues much. but if you mean eat a low fiber diet then isn’t oats high in fiber?
The best type is those whole grain type call oats groats. This are my favorite. I usually buy from bee's brand bird nest and health products. Then cook into a porridge with sweet potatoes. Can cook with other ingredients too just like what we put for rice porridge. My next favourite or what he claim is 2nd best is steel cut oats. This type I prefer to make overnight milk version. Just soak in milk for at least 4 to 8 hours in fridge. Occasionally I may use regular rolled oats to make those cheap 2 in 1 coffee to taste better as those are without sugar. My mum love to buy such coffee. I much prefer those espresso or cafe type of coffee. I dont like any oats below the regular rolled oats as they are more process and less nutrition values. I am taking tramadol daily so I need to take fibre to help with my bowel movement.
Oats is to adjust the meals, so Better say the problems first, atlest in the end needs clear cut advises, because most of them are aged people's mostly with colon problems !!! & thy can't remember your chart or even their's won medicines, thanks 🙏.
@@celestialstar124 The nutritional value of quick cook and instant is very similar to regular oats. The less nutrition you mentioned is so minute it doesnt even matter. Its more of personal preference of the texture and cooking time.
@@Cal316326 that not true. Instant oats usually contain sodium while rolled oats are sodium free. 5 fingers are all called fingers but some for longer and more useful while the pinky is shorter and less useful. You may be right that difference in nutritional value is kinda low. Just like nutritional value in salt are low but doesn't mean there are no better quality salt. People who ask because they want to invest they money on something more beneficial.
Uncle Roger
Thanks for the video. It seems baffling to me that everywhere I read oat bran has MORE nutrition than oatmeal, & yet oatmeal includes oatbran along with the germ & endosperm?? Oatbran removes part of the whole grain, the endosperm & germ, and is not whole grain, yet somehow has MORE nutrition? So it must be you are saying, that for oatbran, that the parts removed are the least nutritious parts, & so, by only having the bran, FOR A GIVEN VOLUME (i TAKE THIS = THE KEY TO UNDERSTANDING), you have greater nutrition? Otherwise it makes no sense, if you were instead to just compare 1 grain of oats, which has all 3 parts (oatmeal) vs oatbran, which has only 1 of the 3 parts, it would not be possible or make sense to say the oatbran has MORE nutrition. LOL. NO ONE WILL explain this to make it understandable. Clearly volume = key. It would help if you would make it clear that oatbran has greater nutrition profile for this reason & lay out how removing parts has this effect, in specific terms of what exactly is being removed in terms of nutrition profile, & how that improves nutrition profile.
LOL. Oh yes, so glad I managed to answer my own question.
You forgot to talk about the nasty preservatives in these rolled oats. Nasty. Buy only oat groats, which unfortunately are heat stabilised. Unstabilised oat groats are almost impossible to find in wretched supermarkets.
Doctor. Chan
Pls don’t eat oats, bread or rice 😢. It doesn’t benefit your health!
Lots carb not good for diabetic people 😡
Oats are mostly glucose you don't need and probably can't handle. Why eat it at all.
There is also whole grain oats as in the shape of a grain or seed. I like to buy this type from bee's brand and cook like porridge. Its most healthy version but take the longest to cook. I also like steel cut oats for overnight milk version. Occasionally I put 2 table spoon of regular rolled oats into the cheap 2 in 1 coffee sachets to make it taste better. Just need to wait at least 5 to 8 min for it to cool down before eating. It will be soft enough.
Feed the cow the Oats and then, eat the cow to get the nutrition. Oats and all grains are garbage food for humans.
thanks
