Careful with processed oat milk tho (Oatly for example). Normal oat milk is good.

Any more info on this? What am I being careful for?

Sugar, mainly. Oatly adds amylase to their mix which breaks down the oat starch into maltose, a type of sugar. While that is happening naturally during digestive process since our saliva contains amylase, it doesn’t happen in that amount, which means Oatly has significantly more sugar than natural oat milk. Maltose also has a glycemic index of 105, which means that it raises blood sugar level more rapidly than even pure glucose. For reference, cane sugar has a GI of 60, lactose of 46. This means the sugar level of Oatly is effectively higher than Coca-Cola’s.

Interesting ty for the reply/info. I drink cold brew every morning at work, I don’t add sugar, but use a little oat milk.
I think we have Califia at work, you know anything about their process? I’d imagine it’s the same.

And just how exactly are they milking them oats, huh?

You can milk anything with nipples.
