1608. Oats are Highly Overrated
Manage episode 494560264 series 2071302
If you start your day with a bowl of oatmeal, you might want to reconsider.
In today’s episode, Dr. Martin takes a stance against oats, calling them one of the most overrated breakfast foods. Contrary to popular belief, oatmeal spikes blood sugar just like soda does and offers minimal nutritional benefit compared to high-protein, high-fat options like eggs, bacon, and sausage.
He also debunks long-standing myths about fiber, cholesterol, and even coffee—championing steak, butter, and full-fat foods as essential to combating insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome.
