Can diabetics eat rice

Answer 1

According to a Harvard study, Americans who eat two or more servings of brown rice a week reduce their risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes by about 10 percent compared to people who eat it less than once a month.

If given the choice between brown rice and white rice, choosing brown rice is a better health option if you are a pre-diabetic or diabetic patient.

Answer 2

Rice is a carbohydrate, like potatoes or bread. The body uses carbs for energy. The problem for diabetics is that carbs are digested into a form of sugar, and the body is not producing insulin to break down that sugar. This can result in blood sugar levels rising to dangerous levels. A diabetic will need to monitor their blood sugar levels, and use medication to control them. They CAN eat carbs, but in moderation, with monitoring.

You can eat all the rice in world if you want, just make sure that you give yourself the appropriate amount of insulin to cover for the carbohydrates in the rice.
