Dr. Berg talks about oatmeal on a ketogenic diet. There are two types of oatmeal, you have unrefined (steal cut) versus instant. The glycemic index of steal cut is 55 and instant oatmeal is 83, pretty high and if you add sugar to it - you raise it even higher. If you are trying to lose weight, we recommend NOT consuming oatmeal because it could interfere with your fat burning.
