Comparison of regular (old-fashion), quick cooking, instant, and steel cut oats sold in the United States. Oatmeal recipes available at: italianmeddiet.com
Same. I was shocked at how direct to the point he was. Usually most content creators extend the time by adding unnecessary introductions. @Creator: Thank you for the quick video!!
I’ve always had the porridge oats or instant oats but I want to try the regular rolled oats because they are good for granola and the oatmeal just looks really appetising.
Very good informative video! There is a 4th type: the grain itself. I eat it once a week, prepared in the same way as rice or spelt. Soak overnight, and boil for approx. 35 to 40 minutes next day. Has the same nutty taste as steel cut, requires quite a chew, but that's a good thing anyway.
+Ringer Herring Thank you for the compliment and your comment. Whole oat groats are not as widely available, yet, in the U.S. as steel cut, but at least the trend towards less processed foods is headed in the right direction.
I like to soak steel cut oats overnight in water and put them in a bowl in the refrigerator. Then the next morning I can heat them in the microwave and they cook in about two or three minutes. I prefer their texture to quick, rolled oats. But quick, rolled oats are easier to prepare and cook.
About great and informative video. I've been eating oats for years but never knew the exact difference. Where I live it's nearly impossible to get steel cut oats so I now I know that I buy is basically the regular/rolled oats and quick cooking oats. Often I would eat both types of eats of oats with just milk and fruit like cereal without any cooking.
@@DiTuroProductions Same here in the UK. You can get steel cut (we call them pinhead) but not in the usual supermarkets. What if I put rolled oats in a blender, do I end up with steel cut oats?
It seems to be the opposite for me.. I sometimes don’t even need lunch after eating a bacon and egg roll.. hungry quickly after 1/3 cup of rolled oats( not instant)
Thank you for the compliment. Glycemic index and glycemic load are complex subjects. The numbers apply to a specific food, eaten alone, and usually raw. It's helpful information, especially for diabetics, but doesn't apply to most cooked foods. Every added ingredient changes GI & GL.
Orlando Pockets When you say, "people are taking it too seriously" are you referring to me? I am a student of Nutrition studying to be a Registered Dietitian of course I take this seriously I love studying about nutritional science. I have no idea what you're talking about.
why not let people just enjoy their pursuit of a healthier lifestyle? as long as they are communicating with their doctor before doing anything extreme, let live.
Brendy Fountaine Who's to say he isn't? Understanding GI should be extremely important to anyone wanting to make a positive diet change and there's noticeable increase in GI from 'old-fashioned' (rolled) to both quick and instant variants. His comment brings to light what people should know, stop being defensive about it.
There is another difference: All three contain phytic acid, which will bind to micronutrients such es Fe, Mg etc so your body can't absorb them. Only steelcut oats contain the enzyme phytase and other enzymes (because they have not been heat-treated), that, when soaking them, will break down the phytic acid and make the product easier to digest.
Thank you for this information. I would also love to know why the coloring varies so much on rolled oats. The lines on flakes (which I understand is the bran) and sometimes the rest of the flake vary a lot in color. They are usually light tan but can be dark brown or black. Do these coloring differences indicate mold or rancidity?
I've never seen dark brown or black rolled oats. The color has been very consistent in my area. Darker oats can mean they are toasted or processed and have additives. Additives should be included in the ingredients list. Any processing should be on the label. Thank you for your comment.
Scottish oats is typically whole oat groats. Steel cut and old fashion oats are made from whole groats. The nutritionally they are about the same. Less processing usually means longer cooking times.
GI usually increases with processing and the amount of cooking time. Quick oats are absorbed faster than rolled and steel-cut oats. Undercooking quick oats or overcooking rolled oats changes their GI.
I had a big doubt of steel cut grains ( wheat ) is also called oats ? You have shown for which i have asked several people and no one had clear information. Oats or oatmeal is pretty common to say , but when it comes to see or get it from market , really tough to select what to buy .Today , after watching this video i have clear understanding between all types of Oats. Thank you so much for the best video !
Thanks. Nutritionally, they are about the same. For people with diabetes, steel cut oats has a lower glycemic index than instant and quick cooking oats.
It depends on how much processing and additives you're willing to accept. Today, you can buy organic instant oatmeal without artificial flavors, colors, and preservatives.
I soak sprouted rolled oats overnight and eat them without cooking the next morning. Sprouting helps to break down the nutrients so they are more easily assimilated.
Hello , I've been taking soaked rolled oats (20minutes) in water with whey protein for 3 days now, and I notice I got stomach pain after 30 minutes, do you think rolled oats cause this digestive problem?, Should I boiled it for me to consume?
It depends on your symptoms. The oat fiber can cause gas, and the whey may contain lactose. Cooking makes the oats more digestible. You can try eating the oats without whey and see if you still have the same digestive problems. Oats can be cross contaminated with gluten.
Great help to me with this video man! I am about to order oats in bulk and I really want to order the ones most suited for my taste and needs. The steel cut oats are popular now because of them being mentioned on The Walking Dead and a few other apocalyptic, dystopian shows. But I really need the rolled oats, cooks in 5-10 minutes and I think that is the traditional Quaker Oats texture and taste I am looking for. Thanks a trillion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're welcome. Some people prefer the taste and texture of steel cut oatmeal and with a little prep it can be cooked in about 10 minutes. Rolled oats requires less cooking time and can be used in a variety of other recipes.
Hi, thank you for this video, my english is poor and I try to understand what you say. Now I have a question.... there are two forms more whic I am intereste: oat flour and "instant oat". I guess oat flour is just grinded rolled oats, but "instant oat".... (it is a powder to disolve in milk or water).... but... what is? how it´s made? Thank you for all your help
You are correct about oat flour. It is flour made from oats. Instant oats, in the United States, are precooked, dried, cut rolled oats to make oatmeal by adding hot water. It is not a powder and does not dissolve in water or milk.
Thank you for the compliment. Cooking can make it easier for the body to extract nutrients from some foods. That is why the glycemic index is higher for cooked foods. You get the health benefits of eating a whole grain whether it is raw or cooked.
Instant oats can have chemical additives some people may want to avoid. Steel cut oats has a flavor and texture unlike instant and rolled oats. The final decision comes down to personal preference and convenience.
The health benefits of steel cut oats usually applies to people with diabetes trying to control blood sugar spikes. The starch in steel cut oats is released slower so it has a lower glycemic index (GI). But GI depends on how the oats are cooked. Overcooked steel cut oats can have a higher GI than rolled oats cooked until tender.
I've published several oatmeal videos including this one for steel cut oats: ua-cam.com/video/Q_kqqZA3dpc/v-deo.html. Nutrition labeling can be confusing and with oatmeal there are many variables like using milk vs. water, and amount and type of sweetener. Oat manufacturers can make assumptions, but the final product is up to the consumer.
@@DiTuroProductions Thank you so much for your reply. I'm actually curious about nutrition values in general, not just for oatmeals. After we cook them and digest them, what's the actual nutrition our body can get? What's the purpose of nutrition label for certain foods when we can't eat them raw? And I know each food is different, I'm just looking for some general information.
Organic if you want to minimize chemical pesticides. Otherwise rolled and steel-cut are both whole grain, have no additives, and have the same nutrition value. Whole rolled and steel-cut oats have lower glycemic indexes than quick cooking and instant oats if you are concerned about blood sugar spikes.
DiTuroProductions even if steel cut oats takes way much way much way much longer to cook than instant instant and quick instant quick instant/quick quick/instant quick instant quick and instant or rolled oats it is much healthier and natural because it is least processed, hence it is much more organic and contains much less and close to none of any or some or bits or high or many or decent or large amounts of additives and preservatives and processing. Processed foods aren’t as healthy and aren’t much healthier and aren’t much more healthy and aren’t any healthier and aren’t are not aren’t and are not aren’t/are-not more healthy and or not and/or/not more healthier and or not as healthy and any more healthier and any more healthy and any more healthier than unprocessed food and products and resources and things.
For some people, minimal processing can help metabolize the nutrients in foods. Too many highly processed foods have more chemical additives than real food.
Stone grinding is another method of reduce groat size and cooking time unless you grind the groats into flour. Nutritional, stone ground is the same as steel cut or rolled.
Steel cut was more time consuming and more caloric according to nutrition posted on container for 1 serving (1/4 c dry) vs old fashioned oat (1/2 c dry). I much prefer steel but i feel more stuffed with the oat. Save me more time cookies. Excellent video.
+morfeas1000 Thank you for the compliment and your comment. According to www.glycemicindex.com the biggest difference is between instant oatmeal and all other types. Anyone concerned about their blood sugar should avoid packaged instant oatmeal. As soon as you add milk, sugar, fruit or spices you change oats glycemic index and glycemic load.
My Dr. also told me that quick oats, while still a healthier breakfast alternative than, say, a pop tart, doesn’t have the same cholesterol lowering benefits as the old fashioned or steel cut.
Wow, he got right to the point... and didn't waste 10 minutes of my life telling me things I already knew before he did it.
Thank you

Steel cut. For when you want your breakfast ready for lunch.
With a little prep, steel cut can be ready in about 10 minutes. Here is my version: ua-cam.com/video/ETa3bfB0rfU/v-deo.html

Phili Prado yes, I was just thinking how that was not enough information on the nutritional value. Just so poorly executed 😐
There is another difference: All three contain phytic acid, which will bind to micronutrients such es Fe, Mg etc so your body can't absorb them.
Only steelcut oats contain the enzyme phytase and other enzymes (because they have not been heat-treated), that, when soaking them, will break down the phytic acid and make the product easier to digest.
Phytic acid may reduce oatmeal Fe and Mg absorption, but it is not conclusive and most people get these nutrients from other non-phytic acid foods.

Scottish oats is typically whole oat groats. Steel cut and old fashion oats are made from whole groats. The nutritionally they are about the same. Less processing usually means longer cooking times.
“Cut into pieces to reduce cooking time”
*yet take 4 times longer than the other two put together* 😂
So true.
Very informative video thanks for uploading!
Why do quick oat have medium GI score whereas rolled and steel cut oat have low GI? Thanks!
GI usually increases with processing and the amount of cooking time. Quick oats are absorbed faster than rolled and steel-cut oats. Undercooking quick oats or overcooking rolled oats changes their GI.
What is Gi please.

Very informative Any greater health benefits for consuming steel cut oats vs. instant oats ? 🦅🦅🇺🇸
Thanks. Nutritionally, they are about the same. For people with diabetes, steel cut oats has a lower glycemic index than instant and quick cooking oats.
They're the best
So is there any problem to eat any type of oat comes in whatever any packets??
It depends on how much processing and additives you're willing to accept. Today, you can buy organic instant oatmeal without artificial flavors, colors, and preservatives.
I usually eat overnight oats, where I just place them in the fridge, with 1/2 cup of oats and milk, is that healthier than boiling the oats?
Cooking makes most foods more digestible. You get more energy and some nutrients from cooked oats.
@@DiTuroProductions You get more nutrients from not cooking them and leaving them in milk overnight, so what is your argument here?
I soak sprouted rolled oats overnight and eat them without cooking the next morning. Sprouting helps to break down the nutrients so they are more easily assimilated.
I have heard that the less processed versions help to keep blood sugars more stable in the body, while quick oats give you blood sugar spikes.
Less processed is better if you do not overcook them. Overcooked steel cut oats can have a higher glycemic index than properly cooked rolled oats.
@@DiTuroProductions Oh that's interesting. I think I overcooked the steel cut oats because there was a slimy film on the top.
Straight into it nice
Thanks
absolutely wonderful, to the point and educational, no hanky panky :)
Thank you.
Can you please tell if we make home made garnola so which kind of oats should use?? Can we use porridge oats for making garnola??
Granola is usually made with whole rolled oats. If you mean steel-cut for porridge oats, there are recipes online for granola with steel-cut oats.
It also changes the glycemic index of the oats
The GI for old fashioned rolled oats and steel-cut oats is 57, quick cooking and instant is higher. The final GI depends on how they are cooked.
My favourite, steel cut with some husk on.
so helpful. thank you
You're welcome.
Thanks for sharing
You're welcome
Yes, that was helpful
Thanks
so is steel cut the healthiest option? if its the least processed
Both are healthy options if there are no additives, preservatives, or sugars. Rolled oats are steamed and pressed groats to reduce cooking time.
Hello , I've been taking soaked rolled oats (20minutes) in water with whey protein for 3 days now, and I notice I got stomach pain after 30 minutes, do you think rolled oats cause this digestive problem?, Should I boiled it for me to consume?

+Ms. Brown Thank you for your feedback.
So, are instant oats, done with just a bit of hot water and 3 minutes to soak, good for ya?
They are good for you if they do not have a lot of added sugars and preservatives.
I add uncooked oats to my cold cereal everyday. They don’t need to be cooked for the nutritional value do they?
Thanks for the well done video.
Thank you for the compliment. Cooking can make it easier for the body to extract nutrients from some foods. That is why the glycemic index is higher for cooked foods. You get the health benefits of eating a whole grain whether it is raw or cooked.
I put mine uncooked in a smoothie so good
So if the nutritious value is the same then why buy steel cut and not instant??
Instant oats can have chemical additives some people may want to avoid. Steel cut oats has a flavor and texture unlike instant and rolled oats. The final decision comes down to personal preference and convenience.
Do these three types have the same benefit?
Yes they do.
How much proceeds is steel cut? Is it safe to eat it?
They are cut up whole oat groats and safe to eat unless you are allergic or intolerant to oats.
We started with 3 types of Oats and at 1:23 had 4 types...why does processing amount matter if the nutritional value is the same in all.
Nutritionally they are the same until processing adds sugars, artificial flavors, and preservatives.
DiTuroProductions Aside from the flavoured varieties, none of these things are added to plain oats
Correct. Another option now available in some areas are whole oat groats.
Which one is best for diabetic patients? Plz help..
Steel cut has a lower glycemic index if you do not overcook it.
Available on Amazon?
Must likely. Almost everything is available on Amazon.
Can we eat it 3 times a day ? :)
Yes you can.
Great info. You should have added glycaemic index of the various types
I did not include GI because it varies so much depending on how it is prepared and how long it is cooked.
@@DiTuroProductions ok makes sense. Thanks again
Its written whole grain oat flakes on mine
Soo all 3 have the same nutritional value? But i have heard that steel cut oats are much healthier than instant and Rolled oats.

so the nutrition value is calculated before they are cooked or after?
Nutrition value is for raw oats not oatmeal.
@@DiTuroProductions Can you make a video about food's actual nutrition values after we eat them? Isn't the charts on the raw food's labels misleading?
I've published several oatmeal videos including this one for steel cut oats: ua-cam.com/video/Q_kqqZA3dpc/v-deo.html.

Either can help one lose weight. Some people believe steel-cut helps them feel full longer. What works for one person may not work for another.
Which is the healthiest oats of all?
Organic if you want to minimize chemical pesticides. Otherwise rolled and steel-cut are both whole grain, have no additives, and have the same nutrition value. Whole rolled and steel-cut oats have lower glycemic indexes than quick cooking and instant oats if you are concerned about blood sugar spikes.
Oatmeal isn't as popular as it was a few decades ago, in the States. My wife & I buy the instant flavored packs sometimes.
Highly processed foods have replaced oatmeal and breakfast cereals. In most cases instant oatmeal is more nutritious than breakfast bars and drinks.
Because milk is more avoided now than a few decades ago.

Good video, although the choice of intro and outro music was a bit strange.
Thank you. After third party copyright issues, I only use UA-cam approved music. They didn't have much to choose from at the time of this video.
Which one are good to eat?
Both types are good. I use both for oatmeal and rolled oats for baked foods like breads and cookies.
can i just add hot water only on the whole grain rolled oats?
Depends on the texture you prefer. Hot water will rehydrate whole rolled oats but it won't have the texture of instant oats.
What about stone ground oats?
Stone grinding is another method of reduce groat size and cooking time unless you grind the groats into flour. Nutritional, stone ground is the same as steel cut or rolled.
DiTuroProductions Thanks for the repy!
You're welcome.
The music for this vid is sick
You can thank UA-cam and people who profit by filing copyright infringement claims for that.
Steel cut was more time consuming and more caloric according to nutrition posted on container for 1 serving (1/4 c dry) vs old fashioned oat (1/2 c dry). I much prefer steel but i feel more stuffed with the oat. Save me more time cookies. Excellent video.
Amazing 👏👏👏
Thanks
nice vid but you forgot the most important part. The different glycemic index these methods give the oats.
+morfeas1000 Thank you for the compliment and your comment. According to www.glycemicindex.com the biggest difference is between instant oatmeal and all other types. Anyone concerned about their blood sugar should avoid packaged instant oatmeal. As soon as you add milk, sugar, fruit or spices you change oats glycemic index and glycemic load.
My Dr. also told me that quick oats, while still a healthier breakfast alternative than, say, a pop tart, doesn’t have the same cholesterol lowering benefits as the old fashioned or steel cut.
But what about the glycemic index?
Steel-cut has a lower GI than rolled oats but it depends on the length of cooking time. Longer cooking times increase absorption and GI.
