Bran flakes are better, but All Bran is best.Full fat milk may help any spikes, as may adding some other fat like plain Greek yoghurt or a chunk of cheese.Porridge is a good idea to try <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Other options are something like rye bread (slow spike) with cheese or a hard boiled egg (boil the day before). That's quick <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Edited to add you could also explore some of the less sweet granolas as the fat in them can help slow spikes. Lizi's granola is one. I recommend you weigh it so you know what size bowl works for you. You could try it with full fat milk, or if that spikes you, try mixing some into plain Greek yogurt. You could also add a few berries if you like.</blockquote>
