    I have to disagree here, as you do have to take personal make up into account. I used to make coco with organic oatly, a dash of chilli and/or a quarter teaspoon of cinnamon everyday, occassionally twice a day. After some months, I noticed a tightness in my chest, and developed headaches. My doctor said that my blood sugar was way too high. I thought why would that be as I don't consume sugar, apart from starches in whole foods. I looked closer at oat milk and discovered it is indeed high in maltose and glucose. So I stopped that, within days I felt much better, within weeks my blood sugar was totally down.

    This is so interesting. I’ve been monitoring my blood glucose for about a month just to test different foods. I’ve found that all the foods that I eat (mostly whole food carbs) that I thought were causing blood sugar spikes; are actually fine when I eat normal portions. I did intermittent fasting for a long time not realizing that I was causing my crashes with huge portions. So I actually thrive on whole food carbs but I just need to eat smaller portions. Thank you for turning me on to blood sugar monitoring. I feel like I’ve gained so much knowledge about body.

    • @EspritundDisa
      @EspritundDisa 3 года назад +36

      Diss & Dad Plant based products might seem overpriced to consumers compared to animal based ones because the dairy and meat industry is heavily subsidised with our tax money in order to keep prices low. If in turn plant based products were subsidised in the same way, they would be a lot more affordable. And what is more, that subsidy would also help the environment instead of propping up a profoundly sick, unethical, exploitative and outdated system.

Not to mention that commercial farmers who produce oats and other commercial grains benefit from the exact same subsidies as the dairy and meat producers. Don't let yourself be fooled by this nonsense narrative ("plant based products cost more, because meat and dairy is subsidised") which doesn't stand the test of scrutiny.

I ended un drink it and felt in love with it. But now we sell more oat lates than anything else -even almond- and they always ask what brand cuz they don’t like that much other brands that are a little to watery.

    As someone who makes plant based milks at home, as it's just cheaper, i've never successfully made oat/rice milk, despite trying different methods, unlike soy milk, it all just settles at the bottom with water on top. I suppose it's because of their starchy nature and i figured there is a specific process behind the production of one like ''Oatly''.
    Well, at least soy milk never fails and you can make a lot of nice things with the okara that's left over. I wonder if some nut milks can be made at home properly, i happen to have a lot of peanuts with nothing to use em for, besides my morning smoothies.

I think EU rules mean that as a condition of being labelled organic there mustn't be anything else added. So my organic Soya milk is just soya and water.
