Carbs make me feel sleepy

[Lorrie65]

I ate oatmeal one morning and felt like I could go to sleep should I stop eating oatmeal?

Hi, Lorrie65. Not necessarily. Is this the first time you’ve eaten oatmeal or the first time you’ve had this reaction to it?

[Lorrie65]

Every morning on the way to work I feel like somebody drugged me and when I started eating your menus I felt more energetic and then the one morning I had the oatmeal I felt very tired It was the oatmeal that comes in packets Now I am eating gluten free food and I feel better I am still having a hard time with sugar cravings

Hi, Lorrie65. I’m glad our menus are working for you for the most part. Most oatmeal-in-packets products are highly processed, and so could indeed sap your energy. We recommend sticking the old-fashioned steel-cut oats that required more cooking time.
