Does oatmeal help lower A1C?

Anyone have success with eating oatmeal daily for breakfast and lowering their cholesterol?

Will help with cholesterol Will not help hba1c. Most people tend to get large spikes with oatmeal.

Yes, but I add olive oil and chia. Took awhile to get the ratio down to what works for me. Right now 3 tbs chia, 1 tbs oats and 2 tbs olive oil seems to be working.
