Can I have this if I am Diabetic ? Is it too many carbs
Hi Gina! We’d suggest trying Joy’s Banana Bread Overnight Oats [link here: https://joybauer.com/healthy-recipes/banana-bread-overnight-oats/ ] instead because it has extra protein from the Greek yogurt. You should skip the optional sweetener (it doesn’t need it).
While this version has 56 g carbs, it also has 15 grams protein, 9 grams fat (coming mostly from heart-healthy unsaturated sources, 9 grams fiber and no added sugar. The protein, fat and fiber will slow the absorption of carbs and hopefully prevent a blood sugar spike.
However, because we don’t know the details about your blood sugar response or what medications you’re currently taking, we strongly recommend that you talk with an RD or nurse at your doctor’s office about dietary changes. Also, everyone reacts different to different foods. If you notice your blood sugar spikes after eating it, you can enjoy half at a time (this is a big, hearty portion so you’ll still feel satisfied), along with a hard-boiled egg or single-serve container of no-added-sugar yogurt on the side. Joy likes Oikos Triple Zero, Chobani Zero Sugar…if you need a few recommendations!
