I originally replied to this saying I had not checked at 1 hour for
quite some time so here's a followup:
This morning's breakfast was 115 grams of steel cut oatmeal with 60
grams of 2% milk along with 20 grams of light rye bread, toasted.
At 1 hour my reading was 7.7 mmol/l (140 mg/dl)
At 2 hours it was 6.1 mmol/l (110 mg/dl)
Seems OK to me.
BTW, this was NOT the type of oats mentioned in the original posting
so there's no sock-puppeting or shilling on my part.
Ross.
