I used to think the same thing, but tried a continuous glucose monitor. I found out steel cut oats were actually really bad for my glucose levels, spiking them into unhealthy levels around 160. More than whole wheat bread and other carbs.

Obviously this is highly subjective from person to person however reading other anecdotal evidence from people who have used a CGM, it’s pretty common.

In other words don’t assume it’s a low glycemic food because the internet says it is.
