    Quick question about Oats

    I eat a lot of oatmeal for my carb sources, upwards of 2-4 cups a day. My oats are 100% whole grain, 100% natural Rolled oats. but it says quick on the container as well. Should I be eating a different type of oatmeal other than "quick" or does it not matter.

    Thanks

    I really cant say but most people here will tell you to stick with old fashion regular oatmeal. I just follow what im told from this guys since they seem to know a heck of a lot more than i do.

    just stay away from the flavored ones in the packets...they have a lot of unnecessary sugars added....and of course you know that already.

    I eat the 'quick' all the time. They're the same as the whole rolled, simply grinder down a bit to be smaller.
