Health and fertility benefits of Crock Pot 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).

Ingredients

1 tsp cinnamon
2 1/2 cups old fashioned oatmeal
12 oz apple, chopped
1/2 cup raisins
6 cups water

Instructions

1. Add all ingredients to the crock pot, mix well and turn it on low to cook over night.

2. Sweeten to taste.

3. Note: you can add the last 1/2 cup of oatmeal in the morning and let it cook for another 1/2 hour which will give it a nice chewy texture.
