Health and fertility benefits of Overnight Chai Oatmeal

Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly. (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11506060). Chia seeds are made up of 60% Omega-3 fatty acids and are the highest source of protein out of any type of seed.

1 cup oats
1 cup almond-coconut milk
2 tablespoons chia seeds

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
