After some months, I noticed a tightness in my chest, and developed headaches. My doctor said that my blood sugar was way too high. I thought why would that be as I don't consume sugar, apart from starches in whole foods. I looked closer at oat milk and discovered it is indeed high in maltose and glucose. So I stopped that, within days I felt much better, within weeks my blood sugar was totally down.
Even though chocolate oat milk has 16g of sugar per cup, Coke has 39g of sugar per cup and offers no nutrients. At least the oat milk offers some B12, calcium, vitamin D and protein for that. Plus chocolate oat milk is filling. I'll drink it as a snack in the summer and it keeps me full between lunch & dinner. Coke you just want more and more. People are insane.

This is so interesting. I’ve been monitoring my blood glucose for about a month just to test different foods. I’ve found that all the foods that I eat (mostly whole food carbs) that I thought were causing blood sugar spikes; are actually fine when I eat normal portions. I did intermittent fasting for a long time not realizing that I was causing my crashes with huge portions. So I actually thrive on whole food carbs but I just need to eat smaller portions. Thank you for turning me on to blood sugar monitoring. I feel like I’ve gained so much knowledge about body.

I'd say it's the daylight hours, a lack of vitamin D is a big cause of osteoporosis. (On top of obesity and lack of outdoor activity) It's a major reason why the US ,despite consuming 3 times the global recommended calcium, is very prone to Osteoporosis.
@@kevinroche835 The places with the highest dairy milk consumption have the highest rates of osteoporosis which may just mean correlation does not equal causation but it might be the milk itself paired with the horrible standard American diet of lots of meat, dairy, and eggs.

The same goes for B12.

My daughter is a newly diagnosed type one diabetic and I was able to help explain blood sugar response to junk food vs healthy food to her with this video. Thank you so much! Love your content and style, you have a real knack for this stuff.
My thoughts exactly. I guess the notion that the dairy producers take the cow's milk and make it into a bottled product intended for humans it is for humans too in the eyes of the court who probably drinks it too. Frustrating.
You‘ve done the blood sugar test all wrong. Should have done it on two separate days with a stable blood sugar level before the experiment for at least 2-3 hours. But if you want a real person experience, I‘m a diabetic and can attest that Oatly has a very high glycemic index, quite similar to Coke indeed.

Thanks Mike! My husband and I have been vegan for 2 years now and milk was a big issue for him. Not anymore thanks to oatly. Slowly he has come to even like the oil free version though he prefers the regular, but we all know it can be hard to find at times. As always, your research is top notch.
Thanks for another informative video. Personally, I prefer Califia Oatmilk. I'm not sure why Oatly is so popular, but whatever it takes to get folks off dairy, I'm for it. Thanks Mic.
I love how you literally pricked yourself with needles for the sake of a YT video 😂 We don't need animal testing! Animal Ag would rather us drink blended beef before plant milk
You are so educated and scientific. I just found your channel - what’s your background? Impressed with all your videos! You don’t attack - you educate. I LOVE IT!!!
We just added this to our coffee shop menu and we’ve been BLOWING through cartons and cartons of Oatly. It’s a huge hit even though we have always homemade our flavorings, nut milks, etc. I was skeptical, but it’s absolutely fantastic and I’ll never go back. This was so educational for me to explain to customers (and myself), thank you.
The serving size is determined by the manufacturer. You have to compare by volume not serving. You may still be correct. Example: Pepperidge Farms lowered the fat per serving by reducing the serving size.
Let's be honest this is a defensive content. You're not seriously thinking that this is somehow more processed than what you omnivores eat do you? Cheerios, orange juice, lunch meats on bread, I mean there's a million things more processed than oat milk. I'll bet you think they actually milk the Oats, don't you? 😂
It's insane to me as a type 1 diabetic that people actually go over 144(8.0 in europe). I always thought non-diabetics always stayed between 72-126(4.0-7.0) I feel like I mess up as a diabetic when I go over 144(8.0) but seeing a non-diabetic go over that limit is really comforting in a way.
As someone who makes plant based milks at home, as it's just cheaper, i've never successfully made oat/rice milk, despite trying different methods, unlike soy milk, it all just settles at the bottom with water on top. I suppose it's because of their starchy nature and i figured there is a specific process behind the production of one like ''Oatly''. Well, at least soy milk never fails and you can make a lot of nice things with the okara that's left over. I wonder if some nut milks can be made at home properly, i happen to have a lot of peanuts with nothing to use em for, besides my morning smoothies.
@Kristers Krūka Check out the channel “Sauce Stache” if you haven’t yet - specifically his video “How to milk everything the easy way.” It might be of help to you. :)
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 Ye i know the guy, though i still haven't been able to mike oat/rice milks, with raw oats it just settles at the bottom with water on top, just like rice and doesn't retain the milky consistency soy does. The starch just doesn't mix well with water, it quickly separates, would need something to turn it into sugar like they do with the store bought one, like malting to create a milky consistency.
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 Well i have a professional blender where you can dial it up to crazy speeds, but the thing is, he didn't make rice milk in that video and i've tried his method(boiling rice) for a few times it still turns out very slimy and vague with poor taste. As for his oat milk, he didn't show it after the milk has stood still for an hour or two, after that time the mushed oat mass just settles at the bottom and it loses the milky texture you see when its fresh.
Seeing that graph makes me so pleased and happy with myself. I only ever drink water and I use oatly when I make pancakes with protein powder (rice and pea protein based).
Love your videos! I’m more soy milk kinda girl but love oatly too. Working at a coffee shop when first oatly came out they gave us some samples -and I was starting my vegan journey- and my boss didn’t want them cuz no one “like it”. I ended un drink it and felt in love with it. But now we sell more oat lates than anything else -even almond- and they always ask what brand cuz they don’t like that much other brands that are a little to watery. Fun fact: I got obsessed with their song for a while... wow wow no cow 🐮 they should pay me for this haha 🤣
The dairy industry is making a huge business mistake pushing back against alternative milk. They should be all in on this game. There is a massive potential market with 65% (4.5 Billion) of the world population being lactose intolerant and 5% (about the same as the population of the US) being allergic to milk. Unlike them, I'm buying up any and all alternative milk companies I can find. The dairy alternatives market is expected to be worth at least $40 billion by 2025. The market growth and profit margins are twice that of dairy. Take heed, alternative milk is the new cash cow.
I love the oat barrista in my morning coffee. Mick, could you do a glycemic load test for dates. Dr Gregor says they don't spike blood sugar but it would be interesting to see that confirmed by your good self; I'm fond of dates so I want it to be true.
You can get your own blood sugar testing kit and test it. But the health benefits of dates have been studied alot. A Researcher even called it "nearly ideal human food". So enjoy your dates!
if you wanna see some random bloodsugar tests of mine, check out #stephyblutzucker on Instagram ... i tested pure sugar stuff, fruits, bread with oily spread etc......

5:58 that article you showed terrifies me because I am hopelessly addicted to Coca-Cola. Just last night I downed an entire 2L bottle😨 I tried to drink water but I hardly ever do. All the liquid I drink exclusively comes from Coke. I can't describe the feeling I get when I first take a sip after I have gone a day or two without drinking it… Immediate pleasure, relief, I feel my anxiety lifting and at the moment it's the most delicious thing in the world. I can't gulp it fast enough. Other than this, I don't like sweets and will have a piece of candy maybe once a year.
@@blairrad1785 I am very unhealthy and fat. Imagine: I’m a 5’1” tall 33 yr old woman, 220 lbs so I estimate I’m around 110 lbs overweight. Last year an ultrasound revealed I have a fatty liver and gallstones. It’s very difficult for me to stop drinking Coca-Cola. It’s also a struggle to get myself to drink water. I’m surprised if I even drink a liter in a week.
I forgot about Prick the Vegan. 🤣 Way to take back that insult and own it. Also, I appreciate that you often touch on the ethics of consuming animal products even though that's not the focus of your channel. Respect.
Companies like oatly should be held to scrutiny. Just because they are vegan doesn't make them trustworthy. I really like the testing you did while showing the graphs as it really allows us to make an informed choice. If possible could you do a follow up comparing it to another popular brand of non dairy milk.
nothing beats home made soy milk in terms of creamyness. in the supermarket you will get 1: 10 ratio of dry soybean mass: water. At home i make it with a ratio of 1:7 and the result is a rich soy milk with that creamy aftertaste described in that video. but i admit: it is more involved to make the soy milk at home than to buy it from the supermarket. But if you really want the best quality possible, than home made is hands down the best alternative. And the benefit is, when it is homemade you have 100% control of the ingredients. I hate it when they put sugar into the soymilk.
It is almost midnight and thanks to you I'm going to my vegan grocery store in my basement and grabbing a jug of oatly to make some chocolate milk. Thanks dude :-)
They are protease and probably cellulases, normal origin are fungi like asparagillus. Can be produced by other organisms depending on the company that supplied them.

@@anti-ethniccleansing465 No, more like talking truth, but Vegans can't handle facts. I don't care what you eat, nobody does. What pisses me off and every other non-Vegan, is how Vegans think everyone should adopt their eating disorder (because they are notoriously ignorant ableists). Their nonsense claims that Veganism is healthy and meat and animal products are not (completely debunked and a lie) and all the manipulation and lies from the Vegan cult of imbeciles. I miss the days when Vegans would just eat their Rabbit food and STFU about everyone else's diet and choices and kept to themselves. I even had a couple of Vegan friends back in the day. The internet and social media changed all that. Modern Vegans SUCK and everyone hates them for a good reason. Smarten up, stay off our pages (and that means ANY page to do with animals and Omnivory) you don't belong on and we'll do the same. If you want war though, bring it, we are patently fed up with your shit and have had more than enough Vegan propaganda B.S. Don't blame us, for what your cult started.
My biggest concern with Oatly is that (to my knowledge) they don't use organic oats. I don't eat 100% organic, but oats are HEAVILY sprayed with glyphosate...
@Eat the Rich Yes, it is indeed everywhere, but more concentrated in foods directly sprayed. I believe Mexico just banned it! Wish we would follow suit in the U.S....
I’d be really interested to see the comparison vs the oatly that has added oil. Also, where I live we can get the cokes made for Mexico which have natural cane sugar, idk if they’re available everywhere, but it would be so interesting to compare the 2 cokes head to head to see the difference from real sugar to high fructose corn syrup. I guess I could do the experiment myself 😂
Excellent video as always Mic. Incidentally I am part of a Population Study that monitors blood sugar for research purposes. The protocol involves fasting, drinking 25mcg of sugar water and then recording blood glucose levels. Two hours later and still in the fasting state, blood glucose is measured again. If results show that levels have returned to normal the participant is considered at low risk for developing Type 2 Diabetes.
I only use about 1/2 cup of plant milk on my morning oat porridge. I never drink plant milks by the glass the way I used to drink milk as a kid. I suppose children might drink plant milk by the glass.
This kinda convinced me to "invest" in batista oatly for my coffee. I'll try to find some today. And people are mad to think oat milk could be nearly as bad as plain coke
Interesting report thanks! Learnt a few things. Lucky enough here in north west UK to be able to get pretty much homemade oat milk from Oato, a family startup who bottle it in milk bottles that you can get delivered by your local milkman. Let me tell you it tastes even better than Oatly, with none of the extra mystery oils, and also fortified. Zero waste footprint compared to the pretty damn awful tetrapaks that Oatly use. Hardly anywhere is set to recycle tetrapaks but even if you find somewhere that does, they’re not closed loop recyclables so it’s pretty much still landfill material eventually. Sure, I’m slightly slightly supporting the dairy industry because the guy who delivers my bottles of Oato gets a cut, but I’m not supporting actual dairy products.
Full fat Oatly is just the best thing I've ever had in coffee. I pretty much only use it in my coffee, tea lattes, and rarely when I bake! I limit oil everywhere else in my food, so I don't mind putting a bit of Oatly in my coffee everyday.

@Candid_Vegan Actually, Mike himself made a video about this claim (called something like vegan myths) and it's not correct. The most recent science now suggests that the reason for less bone density could be impaired blood flow to the bones because of high cholesterol / atherosclerosis. :)
@@saaaaaaaaes I thought I had seen something like that somewhere! thank you for reminding me. I did want to make it clear that it was just a theory, not proven yet. I'll edit my comment.

I thought that dairy milk actually caused osteoporosis for some reason.
My daughter is a newly diagnosed type one diabetic and I was able to help explain blood sugar response to junk food vs healthy food to her with this video. Thank you so much! Love your content and style, you have a real knack for this stuff.
Mad respect for changing your mind in that talk with Avi and Danielle.
That takes character and a commitment to truth.
Thank you, you earned my trust.
..."for people that have been living under a cow"😂
As a type 1 diabetic I do not inject insulin for oat milk ;)
Pls compare bananas and some high fat food :*
Would love to see you do this test with homemade oat milk that does not go through the same process as Oatly as compared to your Oatly data.
How could they possibly be sued for that!? It's insane. On what grounds would that be valid?
My thoughts exactly. I guess the notion that the dairy producers take the cow's milk and make it into a bottled product intended for humans it is for humans too in the eyes of the court who probably drinks it too. Frustrating.
@@MictheVegan then nothing can be advertised as "made for humans. That's a bit worrisome?
Stating a personal opinion as fact, a person can say that nuts aren't for humans too because some people are allergic for example.
You‘ve done the blood sugar test all wrong. Should have done it on two separate days with a stable blood sugar level before the experiment for at least 2-3 hours.
But if you want a real person experience, I‘m a diabetic and can attest that Oatly has a very high glycemic index, quite similar to Coke indeed.
Oats, doesn't have milk
My 15 year old son had his first coke the other day. He said "wow this is addicting" followed by "I feel weird" and "I can't finish this" 😂

Maybe they catered to Romanians in the north west? In both Hungary and the rest of Bulgaria coffee was little cups of espresso - sometimes with whip cream on top. It was always a surprise when we got the cold coke and instant coffee :D
Good coffee too! Sometimes with a tiny pastry or candy or a small glass of sparkling water.
High quality oils like extra virgin olive oil and coconut oil are health foods
I love oatly products everything from the taste to the packaging. Just love it.
Don't eat the package, it may be vegan but likely not good for digestion. Or is it? (Fibre)
@@dexterlacroy4132 lol yeah...
I use Malk organic oat milk. Oil free. Ingredients: filtered water, organic oats, Himalayan salt. No gums, no fillers, no bidders, no carrageenan.
Thanks Mike! My husband and I have been vegan for 2 years now and milk was a big issue for him. Not anymore thanks to oatly. Slowly he has come to even like the oil free version though he prefers the regular, but we all know it can be hard to find at times. As always, your research is top notch.
I’m still going to drink Oatly Barista despite some guy’s blog attempting to create a social panic.
"...I dont even know where the soda section is..." Thats understandable, your highness.
Helpful hint. Use the lancet at the side of the finger as there are fewer nerve endings there.
Thanks for another informative video. Personally, I prefer Califia Oatmilk. I'm not sure why Oatly is so popular, but whatever it takes to get folks off dairy, I'm for it. Thanks Mic.
Does it come in a plastic container like the othet Califia milks?
@@FloridianFishingShorts sadly yes, but they are recyclable here.
I love how you literally pricked yourself with needles for the sake of a YT video 😂 We don't need animal testing! Animal Ag would rather us drink blended beef before plant milk

Coke is 40grams of sugar for 12 oz, not 20.
Yup it is 39g. Did I mess this up somewhere? Or are you referring to where it says glycemic load which is different than grams of sugar?
You are so educated and scientific. I just found your channel - what’s your background? Impressed with all your videos! You don’t attack - you educate. I LOVE IT!!!
I feel gross just watching you drink that coke 🤮 it's bringing back memories of how it felt to drink it
We just added this to our coffee shop menu and we’ve been BLOWING through cartons and cartons of Oatly. It’s a huge hit even though we have always homemade our flavorings, nut milks, etc. I was skeptical, but it’s absolutely fantastic and I’ll never go back. This was so educational for me to explain to customers (and myself), thank you.
Nice job! You could try out freshly cooked potatoes vs cooled down cooked ones 🥔🥔🥔-would be interesting if there is really such a big difference 😜
The serving size is determined by the manufacturer. You have to compare by volume not serving. You may still be correct. Example: Pepperidge Farms lowered the fat per serving by reducing the serving size.
Vegans really love their hyper processed foods huh 😊
Let's be honest this is a defensive content. You're not seriously thinking that this is somehow more processed than what you omnivores eat do you? Cheerios, orange juice, lunch meats on bread, I mean there's a million things more processed than oat milk. I'll bet you think they actually milk the Oats, don't you? 😂
@@kj_H65f lets be honest all junk food are vegan. carnivore diets have 0 issues.
It's insane to me as a type 1 diabetic that people actually go over 144(8.0 in europe). I always thought non-diabetics always stayed between 72-126(4.0-7.0) I feel like I mess up as a diabetic when I go over 144(8.0) but seeing a non-diabetic go over that limit is really comforting in a way.
As someone who makes plant based milks at home, as it's just cheaper, i've never successfully made oat/rice milk, despite trying different methods, unlike soy milk, it all just settles at the bottom with water on top. I suppose it's because of their starchy nature and i figured there is a specific process behind the production of one like ''Oatly''.
Well, at least soy milk never fails and you can make a lot of nice things with the okara that's left over. I wonder if some nut milks can be made at home properly, i happen to have a lot of peanuts with nothing to use em for, besides my morning smoothies.
@Kristers Krūka
Check out the channel “Sauce Stache” if you haven’t yet - specifically his video “How to milk everything the easy way.” It might be of help to you. :)
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 Ye i know the guy, though i still haven't been able to mike oat/rice milks, with raw oats it just settles at the bottom with water on top, just like rice and doesn't retain the milky consistency soy does.
The starch just doesn't mix well with water, it quickly separates, would need something to turn it into sugar like they do with the store bought one, like malting to create a milky consistency.
@Kristers Krūka
Hmm, than how did the Stache man achieve his successful results then? Did he use a more powerful machine than you used, possibly?
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 Well i have a professional blender where you can dial it up to crazy speeds, but the thing is, he didn't make rice milk in that video and i've tried his method(boiling rice) for a few times it still turns out very slimy and vague with poor taste. As for his oat milk, he didn't show it after the milk has stood still for an hour or two, after that time the mushed oat mass just settles at the bottom and it loses the milky texture you see when its fresh.
@Kristers Krūka
I see. Well thanks for the heads up! Good luck in trying to find a solution! :)
Seeing that graph makes me so pleased and happy with myself. I only ever drink water and I use oatly when I make pancakes with protein powder (rice and pea protein based).
Love your videos! I’m more soy milk kinda girl but love oatly too. Working at a coffee shop when first oatly came out they gave us some samples -and I was starting my vegan journey- and my boss didn’t want them cuz no one “like it”. I ended un drink it and felt in love with it. But now we sell more oat lates than anything else -even almond- and they always ask what brand cuz they don’t like that much other brands that are a little to watery. Fun fact: I got obsessed with their song for a while... wow wow no cow 🐮 they should pay me for this haha 🤣
good video for people looking for a confirmation bias. If you think canola oil isn't a concern, you should take a deep dive on some non-bias studies.

10:20 The Joke
Og
The dairy industry is making a huge business mistake pushing back against alternative milk. They should be all in on this game. There is a massive potential market with 65% (4.5 Billion) of the world population being lactose intolerant and 5% (about the same as the population of the US) being allergic to milk. Unlike them, I'm buying up any and all alternative milk companies I can find. The dairy alternatives market is expected to be worth at least $40 billion by 2025. The market growth and profit margins are twice that of dairy. Take heed, alternative milk is the new cash cow.
I laughed so hard at Prick the Vegan xD Good Job brother, keep the videos coming
I really appreciate the use of blood sugar tests. I have done it myself and would like more videos with this information! Thank you
I love the oat barrista in my morning coffee. Mick, could you do a glycemic load test for dates. Dr Gregor says they don't spike blood sugar but it would be interesting to see that confirmed by your good self; I'm fond of dates so I want it to be true.
They will 100% spike blood suger the question is by how much and for how long
You can get your own blood sugar testing kit and test it. But the health benefits of dates have been studied alot. A Researcher even called it "nearly ideal human food". So enjoy your dates!
if you wanna see some random bloodsugar tests of mine, check out #stephyblutzucker on Instagram ... i tested pure sugar stuff, fruits, bread with oily spread etc......
instagram.com/p/zApm6-Mi0_/?igshid=7c0ftsco18e4 there was actually no big difference in anything i ate. I guess it depends on the ppl / constitution (?) too.
It's Mic, short for microphone, and pronounced like "Mike".
Mic the Vegan - dude you are the best ! Always so informative. Thank you !!
5:58 that article you showed terrifies me because I am hopelessly addicted to Coca-Cola. Just last night I downed an entire 2L bottle😨 I tried to drink water but I hardly ever do. All the liquid I drink exclusively comes from Coke. I can't describe the feeling I get when I first take a sip after I have gone a day or two without drinking it… Immediate pleasure, relief, I feel my anxiety lifting and at the moment it's the most delicious thing in the world. I can't gulp it fast enough. Other than this, I don't like sweets and will have a piece of candy maybe once a year.
Well…. I hope you have moved on from being this addicted to Coca-Cola……. Maybe it helps to research what it does to your body?
That is truly horrifying to read. I imagine you are quite overweight. I hope you can get healthier.
@@M_K_M_K_M_K I’ve cut down very slightly but I still drink it several times a week, although not daily anymore. I really need to read on the effects.
@@blairrad1785 I am very unhealthy and fat. Imagine: I’m a 5’1” tall 33 yr old woman, 220 lbs so I estimate I’m around 110 lbs overweight. Last year an ultrasound revealed I have a fatty liver and gallstones. It’s very difficult for me to stop drinking Coca-Cola. It’s also a struggle to get myself to drink water. I’m surprised if I even drink a liter in a week.
Awesome :) Thanks, Mic! I didn't know there was low fat Oatly. And, ouch all those BSL tests must have stung!
I'm guzzling it down Mic
Finally, I’ve been waiting for this one.
I forgot about Prick the Vegan. 🤣 Way to take back that insult and own it. Also, I appreciate that you often touch on the ethics of consuming animal products even though that's not the focus of your channel. Respect.
I would like someone to test raw full fat milk vs oatly.
The dairy industry is quivering and I'm savoring every second of it :)
I had Oatly Barista for the first time today in my coffee. I was pleasantly surprised. It was amazing.
“nobody is guzzling this stuff down” 👀
The prick the vegan joke was cute. You have an enjoyable personality. Thanks for all this data.
I didn't watch the video but I'm gonna comment and says its great anyway! Two thumbs up!
Companies like oatly should be held to scrutiny. Just because they are vegan doesn't make them trustworthy. I really like the testing you did while showing the graphs as it really allows us to make an informed choice. If possible could you do a follow up comparing it to another popular brand of non dairy milk.
I have Type 1 diabetes and use oat milk to treat low blood sugar / insulin shock. Works well
nothing beats home made soy milk in terms of creamyness. in the supermarket you will get 1: 10 ratio of dry soybean mass: water. At home i make it with a ratio of 1:7 and the result is a rich soy milk with that creamy aftertaste described in that video. but i admit: it is more involved to make the soy milk at home than to buy it from the supermarket. But if you really want the best quality possible, than home made is hands down the best alternative. And the benefit is, when it is homemade you have 100% control of the ingredients. I hate it when they put sugar into the soymilk.
Hate soy milk or anything soy for that matter. Almond is my go to and oat milk.
Are you using the rest of the coke to clean your toilet? 😂 No joke, it takes off limescale really well 👍
It is almost midnight and thanks to you I'm going to my vegan grocery store in my basement and grabbing a jug of oatly to make some chocolate milk. Thanks dude :-)
Hi, Mike!
I make my own oat milk. I am not afraid. Lol. I have become leaner during lockdown eating 80% carbs. No diabetes here
Where do the enzymes added to Oatly come from? Excellent video Mic! Thanks for testing your blood sugar!
They are protease and probably cellulases, normal origin are fungi like asparagillus. Can be produced by other organisms depending on the company that supplied them.
Superb video, informative, honest, inclusion of indisputable facts (environmental impacts, animal rights) and highly entertaining. You are one of the best advocates for the cause!
I‘d love a juice vs softdrink thing!
For that price you can make your own oat milk with cashews to make it creamier
Ah, the neverending attempts to discredit vegan companies and their products...
It's not hard to. It's inferior plant slop garbage, period.
@@MrBilld75 See? No sources or claims, just angrily typing "Vegan food yucky!"
@@jorami4838 Basic nutrient Science and Physiology, fool. Plant foods are inferior, easily proven, this isn't rocket Science. Go pick up a book, brainwashed Vegan. I don't need sources, the info. is easily available anywhere.
Your cognitive dissonance (like many of your cult) is not my problem. You want to live in denial, go ahead. That would be oh so typical of your brainwashed cult and it's manipulation and dishonesty.
If you really want to get technical about it, then be honest and don't just look at the well documented deficiencies of it, but all the anti-nutrients that play havoc with numerous people and conditions too. Veganism is an eating disorder.
@Bill Does Stuff
Curious - what is your goal here? Why are you even on this channel? Do you think that you are persuasive to change people’s minds here by merely talking bullocks and smack? Why do you care what vegans eat? What’s in it for you to be here, harassing vegans?
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 No, more like talking truth, but Vegans can't handle facts. I don't care what you eat, nobody does. What pisses me off and every other non-Vegan, is how Vegans think everyone should adopt their eating disorder (because they are notoriously ignorant ableists). Their nonsense claims that Veganism is healthy and meat and animal products are not (completely debunked and a lie) and all the manipulation and lies from the Vegan cult of imbeciles.
I miss the days when Vegans would just eat their Rabbit food and STFU about everyone else's diet and choices and kept to themselves. I even had a couple of Vegan friends back in the day.
The internet and social media changed all that. Modern Vegans SUCK and everyone hates them for a good reason. Smarten up, stay off our pages (and that means ANY page to do with animals and Omnivory) you don't belong on and we'll do the same.
If you want war though, bring it, we are patently fed up with your shit and have had more than enough Vegan propaganda B.S. Don't blame us, for what your cult started.
I have a large glass of suger free almond milk every morning. I either add ginger or coffee. Yum.
My biggest concern with Oatly is that (to my knowledge) they don't use organic oats. I don't eat 100% organic, but oats are HEAVILY sprayed with glyphosate...
I live in the UK, and buying mostly organic Oatly, they have it even in Tesco :) not sure about other countries, though
@@fattysow6252 interesting! that's great to hear-will have to look into whether there is an organic Oatly product here in the states...

Thank you as always for the data, not enough people out there being truthful these days.
"I'm literally on coke right now ..." lol
i know that feeling!
Great info! I use Oatly (without oil) all the time. I think it's the best plant based milk.
I’d be really interested to see the comparison vs the oatly that has added oil. Also, where I live we can get the cokes made for Mexico which have natural cane sugar, idk if they’re available everywhere, but it would be so interesting to compare the 2 cokes head to head to see the difference from real sugar to high fructose corn syrup. I guess I could do the experiment myself 😂
Excellent video as always Mic. Incidentally I am part of a Population Study that monitors blood sugar for research purposes. The protocol involves fasting, drinking 25mcg of sugar water and then recording blood glucose levels. Two hours later and still in the fasting state, blood glucose is measured again. If results show that levels have returned to normal the participant is considered at low risk for developing Type 2 Diabetes.
I’m vegan and I hate all the plant milks I have tried. I also never liked cows milk when I wasn’t vegan. I wish I would like plant milk!
Eat the Rich yeah that’s the exact same with me. I can have it in tea or recipes but not on its own 🤮
A hard part for me being vegan is I LOVED cows milk and could drink a whole gallon in one setting....I am so glad that Oatly tastes so similar.
Just bought a carton of oatly today 😳
I only use about 1/2 cup of plant milk on my morning oat porridge. I never drink plant milks by the glass the way I used to drink milk as a kid. I suppose children might drink plant milk by the glass.
This kinda convinced me to "invest" in batista oatly for my coffee. I'll try to find some today. And people are mad to think oat milk could be nearly as bad as plain coke
Mmmm
Seriously the barista oatly is amazing do itttt
Interesting report thanks! Learnt a few things. Lucky enough here in north west UK to be able to get pretty much homemade oat milk from Oato, a family startup who bottle it in milk bottles that you can get delivered by your local milkman. Let me tell you it tastes even better than Oatly, with none of the extra mystery oils, and also fortified. Zero waste footprint compared to the pretty damn awful tetrapaks that Oatly use. Hardly anywhere is set to recycle tetrapaks but even if you find somewhere that does, they’re not closed loop recyclables so it’s pretty much still landfill material eventually.
Sure, I’m slightly slightly supporting the dairy industry because the guy who delivers my bottles of Oato gets a cut, but I’m not supporting actual dairy products.
Props to you, for sacrificing for science! Hehe
Full fat Oatly is just the best thing I've ever had in coffee. I pretty much only use it in my coffee, tea lattes, and rarely when I bake! I limit oil everywhere else in my food, so I don't mind putting a bit of Oatly in my coffee everyday.
