What do you put in your cereal/oatmeal?

Coolio said:
Are you being facetious or what?

Glucose is completely unnecessary in the human diet. So are any other glucose polymers like starches. It all leads to unhealthy insulin resistance. Any amount at all is BAD FOR YOU.

Unless you're doing endurance aerobics or competitive athletics, the only glucose that should be flowing through your cardiovascular system is that which was converted from glycogen by your liver. Your liver is the ideal rate-limiter for blood glucose levels. Your digestive system doesn't rate limit properly.

Dude. WHERE DO YOU THINK THE GLYCOGEN IN THE LIVER COMES FROM??? Thin air??????? WATER???? No. It comes from glucose in the bloodstream, which comes from (drumroll please)... your diet!

Learn the very basics of glucose metabolism then come back and and say sorry for posting when you know nothing.

This would be a good place to start:

I know my shit, I wouldn't be posting if I didn't.

Your liver can create glycogen from amino acids and lipids just fine. Yes glucose is an intermediate in vitro, but consuming edible glucose is completely unnecessary.
 
I have oat bran for breakfast most mornings, and I mash a banana, and add cinnamon and psyllium husk before microwaving. It's really good, it tastes like banana bread!

If I'm out of bananas, I'll chop up some dates, peaches, or apples and throw 'em in.
 
This morning I made a hodge-podge cereal of trader Joe's Oat n Bran Swirls <3 and bran flakes with chopped dates and slivered almonds. Yum!
 
As our cells were designed to use sugars as energy I will continue to use sugars (dextrose, sucrose, fructose, lactose and maltodextrin) daily. Converting proteins and fats into glucose takes extra energy. Cutting all carbs out of your diet has proven to be pretty bad for kidneys, liver and lipids. Once in a while is ok- but as a permenant thing zero carbs has got to be bad.

I put udos oil, unrefined sugar and island mix into my oatmeal. As a scot I guess I should just have salt... but I'm a bit of a sweet tooth. :)
 
i eat 1 cup of plain oats for breakfast everyday.

i add water and then spoon it down.

no cooking.

no sugar.

no nothing.


soggy oats.

first step to domination.
 
Coolio is correct. You could subsist on an entirely fat/protein diet and be just fine. If you try to not eat any protein or fat you will die though. Carbohydrates are completely unnecessary. Unfortunately they are delicious and not eating them is incredibly difficult because your food choices are narrowed down to very few options.

Are you kidding? The human body was made to run on carbohydrates.
 
yep. it was also made to PRODUCE them itself. therefor, they are nonessential.

i've gone without carbs for a few months and had no issues aside from getting incredibly ripped. (terrible side effect lol)

ok heres a plan, they have those lil sugar packs at the cafeteria right, so can gank some of them

Holy fuck! a whole thread about what to put in your oatmeal?!
i fucking love oatmeal. ok well i noticed noone posted this yet
and apple sauce sounds like a great fuckin idea.

but if you got the balls make some brown sugar oatmeal
or cinnamon (just tends to work best)
and dribble some maple syrup semi alot
of maple syrup. its bomb. trust.
 
If I have this ceareal which is crunchy oats, dried blueberries/strawberries, raisins, sunflower seeds etc - I put yoghurt on it, and a bit of milk...then mix it all up - THE SHIT!!!

If I am eating muesli..then I will either put yoghurt, a bit of milk on it and a bunch of honey, or if I got no yoghurt and honey then I chop bananas into it..

Sometimes whatever type of cereal it is I will shower it in hemp seeds...if I haven't been munching them already...

mmmm cereal :)
^ he has the right idea too...I LOVE Maple syrup...dont have any though...mean to get some :p
