This article, authored by Full Plate Living Program Director, Amy Hanus, highlights the clinical application of whole grain oats, specifically within the framework of Culinary Medicine.

"Whole grains cooked in liquid, especially in their less processed forms, such as steel-cut oats, offer a powerful, affordable, and accessible tool for patients aiming to manage or prevent insulin resistance and chronic diseases. By prioritizing larger whole grain particle sizes and incorporating high-fiber additions, such as fruits, vegetables, and beans, clinicians can guide patients toward optimized nutritional choices that help stabilize glucose levels."
