I am delighted to find a meal that incorporates oatmeal without, hopefully, being the regular, mushy oatmeal cereal that I've thoroughly despised since childhood. I'm praying that this smoothie will be suitable for me. The cholesterol-lowering aspect would be a Godsend to me as well, as my doctor is planning to add an additional cholesterol lowering drug to my already copious drug regimen. I live with HBP, high cholesterol, diabetes and stage 4 chronic kidney disease. Juggling the needs of all of these maladies is daunting. At least I made it to age 75.
No, it isn't mushy. There are other things you can do to reduce your cholesterol. Watch this playlist of videos th-cam.com/play/PLauVj79oCFgCD1-WAmEoCoTHKtLefGe6c.html
I shall try that. Every morning I have old fashioned rolled oats, with unsweetened almond milk, ripe bananas & strawberries or grapes for my breakfast. Thanks much👍🏾
Yes Dr Joe ,I have been fellows your teaches on Tubes about cholesterol and high pressure , when to say thank to you for that teaches ,but you have to help me because my pressure is still high
This is a great smoothie and I have been using it. I would be glad if you test drive oats for blood sugar levels as you did with moringa. For me it raises but I wouldn't want to conclude it does for all
Of course, oats will initially raise your blood sugar. It's a carb after all. If you don't have diabetes, your blood sugar will come down soon after. If you have diabetes, what you want to do is reverse your insulin resistance and you can eat all the healthy carbs you want. I did it. You can too

Thank you so much for your informative videos. What are acceptable fruit alternatives? I have read and read through the comments, but did not know for sure which fruits would be good. I live in the country and some fruits are just not available or too expensive.

Thank you so much Dr for this video. I have tried this smoothie for about 4 times now, but I noticed that I get chest pain after drinking the smoothie, what could be the cause of pain? Your answer will be welcome please. Thanks
I love it! I’m allergic to strawberries, but will substitute blueberries and still use the mango as it’ll add a nice sweetness to it… thanks again Dr. Joe, glad I discovered your channel..
ive now tried all yr smoothies ... this being the last... & now id wished id made this the 1st as its my fav! never been a big oat meal fan & have been enduring cooked steel cut oats. will make this a regular in my diet regimen. i saw in the comments that u suggest rolled oats to steel cut for this smoothie but not sure i understand the reason for yr pref as you've said prev that steel cut has added health benefits over rolled. in any event ty for yr continued excellent work on this channel!!
Yes, steel-cut oats is preferred to rolled oats when cooking oats but for this smoothie, I don't think steel-cut oats will work as rolled oats are previously steamed and pressed flat (meaning rolled oats are partially cooked) making rolled oats a better fit for this very smoothie
@@drjoetvMD TY sir! i always so admire & appreciate your taking yr very valuable time to answer these questions in the comments even sometimes i've noticed answering the same question over & over again. you are TRULY a patient, wonderful, amazing credit to yr "learned" profession & the yt community is VERY lucky to have u!!
Dr Joe, thank you. Just made this drink. Surely the 1/4 cup of milk can't be a correct measurement. In the video the amount you poured in is way more than 1/4 cup. The consistency of my smoothie was more like a sorbet. I had to add 3/4 cup more of milk and even then it was still very thick. Hoping you can reply with confirmation. I would really like to make this on a daily basis but quarter of a cup of milk just can't be right. Look forward to hearing from you. 🙏
Add more milk to make the smoothie to the consistency you consider okay for you. So long as you are not using dairy milk or coconut milk, we're good. You can even dilute the oat milk or any other non-dairy milk apart from coconut milk with water if you think you may be using too much milk i.e mix the milk with water or use the non-dairy milk all the way. No fixed rule about the amount of milk to use. Add to get it to the right consistency you like
I used to do blueberries, 1/4 cup oats, kale, and cantaloupe, and collagen powder and my cholesterol went down considerably. My doc thought it was the low dose cholesterol pill she put me on but I wasn't even taking it😂 Unfortunately I had to stop eating blueberries, strawberries, any berries because of food allergies which is really a bummer because my cholesterol went up, but lately I've made some changes to reduce my cholesterol according to what I can eat so we'll see what happens when I have my next test in May 2023. Wish me luck!😊 Also I don't see a notification button on your channel. I would like to receive your content automatically, if possible.
What a shame you developed a sudden allergy to the berries. Anyway there are many more foods you can eat to escort cholesterol out of your body. Beans, peas, lentils, celery, flaxseeds, oats and oat bran etc
Dee, please watch this video where I talk about the 3 pillars of cholesterol reduction. If you attack the cholesterol issue from those angles you'll win. Watch th-cam.com/video/kGDnHVo_ulg/w-d-xo.html
I watched your video Dr. Joe. Thank you but I have a question. What's wrong with eating chicken? I love chicken. I'm not allergic to beans but I do not like any kind of beans🤢🤮 Yeah food allergies are a real bummer. Unfortunately, turned 60 and became allergic/sensitive to 50 foods, mostly healthy foods☹️. Keep the videos coming!😊
@Janis Small, my smoothie used to be 1c blueberries, 1c kale, 1c cantaloupe, 1/4c oatmeal, 1 scoop of collagen, and 1c almond milk, and I would eat grapes everyday. Can't have blueberries, grapes or almonds so now I have 1c kale, 1/2 apple, 1/2 pear, 1c melon, 1 carrot, 1/4c oatmeal, 1 scoop of collagen, and 1c oat milk. Delish! Enjoy!
Good one. What can we use as alternative for flaxseed. I do not think it is in Nigeria. I made pea, pinaple, apple.,banana,galic and water melon. Is it bad for high cholesterol
Many ways. Smoothies. Oatmeal. Baked oatmeal. Muesli. Granola. Puddings using milk only especially cha seeds. As a binder in place of eggs called flax eggs etc
Since someone mentioned estrogen, I take an estrogen blocker ANASTROZOLE to prevent cancer from returning. Is this smoothie safe for me to take? Thank you.
This is lovely, I got another similar smoothie for cholesterol, the only difference is dates and is used instead of strawberries, and chia is added with the flaxseed. Love science-based meals, as a Neuroendocrinologst Physiologist I can relate. keep them coming Dr.
Dates is allowed ? 👌 Can I use only chia instead of flaxseed ? Did it help your cholesterol ? Mine is very high 😥 Can you give your recipe please ? I made one this morning with banana, hope banana is find, and greek yogourt also ? Thanks so much !
Good morning Dr. I just found your channel today and I subscribed. I will try this recipe soon. My cholesterol is borderline high and I've been having a bit of constipation. I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos
Thank you Sr. JOE. I discovered your channel today and I am a subscriber now. Quick question, if I follow all the advice in order to lower my cholesterol how long would it take to see the results in my blood test. I'm scared that something can happen between now and when I get the level to the right number 😳
It's difficult to give you a timeline as to how soon your cholesterol will drop and by how much. It is a slow process. Even statins take time to lower your cholesterol. Also everyone is different, so is our cholesterol level and how we metabolize it. You just do what you need to do and see how it goes. In any case, you are still nourishing your body with good food using the recipe. Always a good idea to take a broader look at dietary interventions like this, rather than a tunnel vision approach
Thank you for sharing this Dr. Will try this. Can I use regular milk? Heard that it is good to soak oats with milk or water or even heat in pan slightly when using 'raw' oats in a smoothie?
Thank you Dr. Joe your a Godsend as I am determined not to take statin drugs but am anxious to lower my cholesterol naturally. Just a note to mention that I am exercising as well . Is exercising helpful?
Hello Dr. Joe, I was wondering if one could prepare this smoothie and preserve it in the fridge if so for how long could it be in the fridge or should it be consumed immediately after preparation. Thanks for all your efforts.
Hi are there any particular Oaks you shouldn't use for that smoothie can I use instant oats meal it looks tasty and I would love to try it thanks for sharing you always give good information on health
Looks very yummy. Doctor Joe, can I boil my oats a little? What can I replace strawberries with? Strawberries, blueberries (that category of fruits is extremely costly here and hard to find) with? Is oat milk a must or can I use water or soy milk?
Of course you can use soymilk. I don't know fruits available there where you are, so can't advise. You can use apples and kiwis if available. No, you cannot use boiled oats in smoothies. You can have boiled oats separately as a meal but not in smoothies. It will be messy
@@drjoetvMD thanks. Apples are available and affordable. Will use this. Have noted you response on boiled oats. Let me build courage to face a smoothie with raw oats. Pack doesn't show if it's rolled or otherwise. Thanks.
@@lilianasaba9846 They are probably rolled. Most commercially available oats are rolled. Few stores sell steel-cut oats (the best oats to eat) but not appropriate for a smoothie anyway
Good day Dr Joe. THANKS for this recipe, WILL try it ASAP. A couple of questions: can I use whole flaxseeds instead of ground?? Will almond milk be ok instead of oatmilk?? Thank you very much. I DO appreciate all you do! Greetings from South Texas!🙏💙
Blanca, yes, you can use almond milk in place of oat milk. You can also use whole flaxseeds but I'll prefer you blend them into a powder first before adding them into the smoothie content
Hi Dr Joe Can you tell me how many grams of mango go into this smoothie? Mangos come in different sizes and I’m not quite sure of the measurement. Thank you so much!
For the most part, I tend not to be too prescriptive about the weight of fruits and veg simply because we don't have enough of them anyway. Use a whole mango. It doesn't matter the size. You get more soluble fiber from it anyway
Hi Dr. Joe, Many thanks for the information in this video. My question is about how you successfully reversed your insulin resistance. Do you have a video on that? If yes kindly share the link. If not, would you consider doing a video to let us know how you did it? Many thanks again for all the very helpful information you always put out for us. God bless.
Rosie, I still have mangoes for sale in my local supermarket. I only shot that video yesterday, so mangoes are still very much around. Anyway, you may use banana instead
@@drjoetvMD ohhh so sorry, I meant Mango in response to Rosie... she can buy frozen one 👍 yes I listen to all the video 👍 maybe my english is not perfect, I am french, sorry 🙏 I want to let you know Dr. Joe something 🌞 I just discovered your channel and can't stop listening to your video, taking notes... You gave me back hope 🙏 truly every body should have a doctor like you, this is a dream of mine, you are a hidden treasure, tears falling of joy because answers to my prayers, you are an amazing Doctor 🙏 Wish I knew all that 😉 You take of your precious time also, proud I am to see human with heart like you 💚 I am struggling really hard on lots of things, premenopause, anxiety, depression, fibromyalgia, low iron fatigue, cholesterol etc, and trying to help me out with naturals and foods... You gave hope and would do anything possible to succeed, it took strenght and you gave it to me !!!!!! You make my day 🌈 And again sorry for the wrong words I was trying to help the other person by suggesting frozen mango as an alternative 😉 Hi from Quebec 🌞
Dr Joe TV No problem...iron sharpens iron I think konjac rice based smoothie sweetened with Truvia or liquid stevia would be great diabetic alternative
Hi Dr, many thanks for your informative videos. I have a question regarding one of your video i watched few days ago showing how to lower your cholesterol using, chia seeds, okra and garden eggs ( aubergine) My question is how do you use the chia seeds effectively? Can I add it to foods such as oats etc?
![MV วิถีชีวิตใต้ - ผา อัยย๊ะ [Official MV HD]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/nODlkOUu9B0/mqdefault.jpg)
Blend quater cup of oatmeal. 5 tbs ground flax seed. 200 grams of strawberries. 3 quarters of mango. Quarter cup of milk.

Sounds great! I'm using black ginger and moringa powder to help with my blood pressure. Can I add this to the smoothie?
Yes, you can
A great quick breakfast on the go
Yes, it could be
Looking forward to ANY smoothie recipe good for diabetics!
I will get round to doing it sometime
Thank you for sharing this Dr. Will try this. Can I use regular milk? Heard that it is good to soak oats with milk or water or even heat in pan slightly when using 'raw' oats in a smoothie?
Dairy milk raises your cholesterol because it is full of saturated fat. Use plant-based milk like Oat milk
@@drjoetvMD thank you.
Thank you Doctor will try it
Always welcome
Thank you Dr. Joe your a Godsend as I am determined not to take statin drugs but am anxious to lower my cholesterol naturally. Just a note to mention that I am exercising as well . Is exercising helpful?
Oh yes. Exercise is definitely part of the deal

Hello Dr. Joe, I was wondering if one could prepare this smoothie and preserve it in the fridge if so for how long could it be in the fridge or should it be consumed immediately after preparation. Thanks for all your efforts.
Popila, I prefer to have my smoothies fresh but keeping it overnight in the refrigerator is fine but no longer than one night
Dr Joe,you only mentioned flaxseed. Are you telling us that chia seeds is not good.pls,put me through. Thanks for all your efforts.
Thanks for sharing this video
You're welcome
Thank you, I'll try it ASAP. But pls where can I see flaxseed
It's available in health food stores. Or try this link amzn.to/3aU9oA7
Good afternoon Dr.will it be ok to replace pine apple than straberry
Not quite. Apples or pears rather
Hi I just saw you O like to know if I can use coconut milk for the smoothie
No please. We're trying to lower our cholesterol, not raise it. Coconut milk has saturated fat which raises cholesterol
Thanks fir thus Dr Joe, I use hemp seeds and chia seeds one banana for my breakfast smoothie are these good for cholesterol
Good for you, Carol
Hi are there any particular Oaks you shouldn't use for that smoothie can I use instant oats meal it looks tasty and I would love to try it thanks for sharing you always give good information on health
@@drjoetvMD How much oat meal did you say like a half of cup. How much flex seeds how many strawberry.and one whole mango.half cup of oatmilk
@@deborahmack3015 Please watch the video again as all of the answers are in the video
Hi De. Joe. Thanks for another great video! Quick question- is this safe for prediabetics to drink this daily?
I'd like to think so. I have diabetics who use it. If in doubt, test your blood sugar afterwards
Love your videos
Thank you
Looks very yummy. Doctor Joe, can I boil my oats a little? What can I replace strawberries with? Strawberries, blueberries (that category of fruits is extremely costly here and hard to find) with? Is oat milk a must or can I use water or soy milk?
Of course you can use soymilk. I don't know fruits available there where you are, so can't advise. You can use apples and kiwis if available. No, you cannot use boiled oats in smoothies. You can have boiled oats separately as a meal but not in smoothies. It will be messy
@@drjoetvMD thanks. Apples are available and affordable. Will use this. Have noted you response on boiled oats. Let me build courage to face a smoothie with raw oats. Pack doesn't show if it's rolled or otherwise. Thanks.
@@lilianasaba9846 They are probably rolled. Most commercially available oats are rolled. Few stores sell steel-cut oats (the best oats to eat) but not appropriate for a smoothie anyway
Good day Dr Joe. THANKS for this recipe, WILL try it ASAP. A couple of questions: can I use whole flaxseeds instead of ground?? Will almond milk be ok instead of oatmilk?? Thank you very much. I DO appreciate all you do! Greetings from South Texas!🙏💙
Blanca, yes, you can use almond milk in place of oat milk. You can also use whole flaxseeds but I'll prefer you blend them into a powder first before adding them into the smoothie content
@@wellnessdr5572 THANK You so much for taking the time to respond. I'll certainly listen to your advice. Have a Blessed day!🙏💙
@@drjoetvMD THANK You for responding so promptly. Do appreciate you replying to my questions. Blessings from South Texas.💕
@@blancaalcala4148 My pleasure, Blanca
Is it ok to use pure water?
That looks tasty Doc.and very healthy!!
Yes, it is, Faye
Hi Dr Joe
Can you tell me how many grams of mango go into this smoothie? Mangos come in different sizes and I’m not quite sure of the measurement.
Thank you so much!
For the most part, I tend not to be too prescriptive about the weight of fruits and veg simply because we don't have enough of them anyway. Use a whole mango. It doesn't matter the size. You get more soluble fiber from it anyway
Hi Dr. Joe, Many thanks for the information in this video. My question is about how you successfully reversed your insulin resistance. Do you have a video on that? If yes kindly share the link. If not, would you consider doing a video to let us know how you did it? Many thanks again for all the very helpful information you always put out for us. God bless.
No, I haven't done a video specifically for insulin resistance yet. Will do sometime
😃👏
Thanks so much Dr. Joe...
You're welcome, Hanis
It did this along with spinach in my green smoothie diet and lose weight 15lbs in 10 days.
Thank you for your contribution
Stacey-Ann ... My goodness...did you just go on a smoothie only diet or just use your smoothie for one meal a day?
Hi Dr. Joe, here in nigeria when mango is not in season what can I substitute d mango with?
Apples or avocados
I’m using strawberries, blue berries, spinach, oats, ground flaxseed, cinnamon, vegan protein powder, and almond milk. Healthy enough? Any concerns?
Yes
Yummy! Thank you Dr. Joe. What’s your take on Psyllium Husk?
I have another recipe involving psyllium husk coming soon but suffice it to say, it is good for this purpose
Dr Joe, I’ve got a question . Is it ok to put black seed oil in coffee ? Thank you. Peggy
I have never been attracted to Black seed oil. Not been a fan of it, so I cannot comment on that. Sorry
This is so incredible.I will certainly use this recipe to prevent high cholesterol.
Thank you
Any sub for mango? I'm allergic. Thanks. Also, can I use chia instead of flaxseeds?
Yes, you can use chia seeds. Use apples for mangoes
Thank you Dr joe🙏👌
You're welcome
Hi Dr Joe, which is the best fruit to subsidize instead of mango as mango Season is over.
Can’t wait to try.
Rosie, I still have mangoes for sale in my local supermarket. I only shot that video yesterday, so mangoes are still very much around. Anyway, you may use banana instead
@@drjoetvMD mioum banana 👌 why not frozen strawberry 👍
@@karine8738 Strawberries (frozen or fresh) are already part of the recipe. Watch the video before commenting please
@@drjoetvMD ohhh so sorry, I meant Mango in response to Rosie... she can buy frozen one 👍 yes I listen to all the video 👍 maybe my english is not perfect, I am french, sorry 🙏
I want to let you know Dr. Joe something 🌞
I just discovered your channel and can't stop listening to your video, taking notes... You gave me back hope 🙏 truly every body should have a doctor like you, this is a dream of mine, you are a hidden treasure, tears falling of joy because answers to my prayers, you are an amazing Doctor 🙏 Wish I knew all that 😉 You take of your precious time also, proud I am to see human with heart like you 💚
I am struggling really hard on lots of things, premenopause, anxiety, depression, fibromyalgia, low iron fatigue, cholesterol etc, and trying to help me out with naturals and foods...
You gave hope and would do anything possible to succeed, it took strenght and you gave it to me !!!!!!
You make my day 🌈
And again sorry for the wrong words I was trying to help the other person by suggesting frozen mango as an alternative 😉
Hi from Quebec 🌞
Hi Dr. Joe. I do not find the alpro brand here where I live. Can I use any other brand? What kind of milk Please?
Yes, of course, you can
Thanks again Dr Joe...let me know of diabetic friendly version
Okay. No worries. I am yet to shoot that diabetic version video
Dr Joe TV
No problem...iron sharpens iron
I think konjac rice based smoothie sweetened with Truvia or liquid stevia would be great diabetic alternative
Hi Dr, many thanks for your informative videos. I have a question regarding one of your video i watched few days ago showing how to lower your cholesterol using, chia seeds, okra and garden eggs ( aubergine)
My question is how do you use the chia seeds effectively? Can I add it to foods such as oats etc?
You could but soak them in either water or milk before adding them to the oats
Thanks for sharing. What can I use in place of mangoes?
Green apples do have some pectin, so yes, you may use green apples
@@drjoetvMD thank you so much for responding. God bless you 🙏
