> The sugars in oat milk are a bit simpler (primarily maltose rather than lactose), which gives a lower glycemic index That would lead to a higher glycemic index? >> Either way, if you compare them to something like fruit juice or full-sugar soft drinks, the sugar content is still pretty low. From https://www.jeffnobbs.com/posts/oatly-responds-in-defense-of...: Even with the slightly lower glycemic index for maltose due to the soluble fiber content, I get more or less the same result for Oatly’s blood sugar impact: a glycemic index of 77 (previously 79) and a glycemic load of 18.4 (previously 19.0) for a 12 oz portion; still about the same blood sugar impact as a 12 oz cola, which has a glycemic index of 63 and glycemic load of 20.8. |
