Yes, old fashioned oats means that the oat is whole.

My husband does not cook whole oats at all in the summer.

He soaks them overnight in filtered water or soy drink and eats them as
is, perhaps with a bit of cinnamon.

I'm going to try that tonight. Very interesting.

The more the grain is procesed, and that includess cooking, the quicker
it will be absorbed into your blood stream. So quick oats can increase
your blood sugar faster than old fashioned oats, which are really the
same as rolled oats. And mushier oatmeal will translate into higher
blood sugar more quickly than oatmeal cooked less that still has more
texture. the same is true for rice and pasta. Eat it crisper, or al
dente, and it takes longer to digest the sugar. Cooking breaks down
complex carbs into simple sugar, meaning that your digestive system
doesn't have to do as much to process the food. Cook it longe and you
digest it that much quicker.

I have my rolled oats uncooked, with milk, nuts and seeds, at breakfast.

LOL. My husband is a man, Healthy?

What difference is it to you?

I think you like me, Healthy. You talk dirty to me and track me around
the boards. I don't like you and I don't want another lover just now,
but do take my advice - a good rim job will do wonders for that nasty
disposition of yours.

I don't need your "codolences". In fact, Healthy, you are the type of
person that no one needs anything from.

Or, just do what Enrico posted: Simply eat your quick oats with some
foods that will slow down the digestion process. My suggestions - a
hand full of almonds, walnuts, pecans, or an egg or two. Problem
solved.

Adding a spoonful of ewe's milk ricotta to the oats can be nice, IME

Your morning-time energy should not be expended on digestion. Digestion
requires vast amounts of energy.

Eat fruit in the morning, which is digested in the small intestine and
requires the very least energy expenditure to digest of all food. Pace
eating your fruit over the morning so that you do not experience
glycemic highs and lows.

Better not to eat the oats, a carb, with any animal protein. Eat it
with soy, almond or rice drink. It won't harm you to throw in a
handful of raisins. Not a good idea to eat oats with nuts either. And
save it for lunch or dinner, not for breakfast.

Nuts should ideally be eaten with a veggie. Cashews and cucumbers, for
instance, are and idea combination.
