Rice is the most commonly consumed staple food in the world. But it can lead to dangerous blood sugar spikes and weight gain. What are the differences between white rice and brown rice? And what are the 5 best alternatives?
1) Due to its high starch content and lack of fiber, white rice has a glycemic index score of 73.
2) Brown rice, sometimes called Whole Grain Rice, has a GI score of 68. However, it contains many more antioxidants, vitamins and fiber content than white rice, making it a better choice for diabetics.
3) Whole grain brown basmati rice has the lowest GI of any form of rice. It contains a good amount of beneficial resistant starch, which can aid gut health.
4) Resistant starch is actually found in all forms of rice, and its amount grows if you let your rice cool before you eat it.
5) Rice, especially white rice, may contain some of the highest concentrations of toxic arsenic among plant foods. To avoid eating too much arsenic, properly wash your rice in clean water before you cook, and cut back on your rice consumption in general.
6) Quinoa is a good rice alternative because it's low in carbs but high in protein and fiber.
7) Freekeh is a whole grain with a GI of 43. It's rich in protein and fiber. It also contains a good amount of iron.
8) Farro originated in Mesopotamia. It's a good source of fiber, protein, magnesium, and B vitamins.
9) Shirataki rice is made from shirataki noodles. They come from Konnyaku, a root vegetable native to Asia. They have an extremely high water content.
10) Cauliflower can be riced to create an excellent healthy rice alternative. It will supply vitamin C, fiber, and beta carotene. It's also a good source of blood pressure-lowering potassium.

*I had very high blood sugar I only managed to improve my health when I found a WONDERFUL treatment, if you want to know about it, I left the video in the comment reply*

*My daughter drinks lots of water and urinates with the same rate, there are no other symptoms to show if those have anything to do with diabetes. This is a good information that I have gone through **Diabets.Care** She is 2 years 9 months, hale and healthy, have not done any blood test. But I am not certain if one can get diabetes at such a tender age. Please I will like to know more on that*
Everywhere you post comments why?

Talk to your doctor. I have a cousin who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes as a child. He is a healthy 70 year old. His early diagnosis, adherence to his medication and diet has kept him healthy.

How did you know baby has diabetes?
My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0I5i At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.
for me, more than 3 months without eating rice, I started having a blood test and the result was Hbac1, 7 my blood sugar. I ate more rice than the dish, my doctor told me that I would only eat 1 cup of rice. What I did was I researched on google and youtube but I discovered something, people can live even without rice, so I tried, at first it was difficult but I told myself I can do it because it's for me. So it's been more than 3 months I don't eat rice but what I eat, vegetables, meats, eggs, wheat bread, rarely sweets but no soft drinks even juice I don't drink, water and green tea I always drink. Also exercise every day.i check my sugar now is 5.8

Your doctor may be right. I believe it's better to take good food in moderation or in limits rather than skipping it all together.
If you eliminate the wheat bread and eat no sweets at all, you'll get your a1c well below 5.6...guaranteed!! 5.8 is still pre-diabetic. Most primary care doctors will high five their patients when they get their a1c below 7 for some reason. Is it good to improve your a1c and lower it once you are diagnosed as being pre-diabetic or type 2? Absolutely, but MOST doctors don't know how to control diabetes the right way and will keep you on meds when you can easily control it by diet alone. Your a1c needs to be 5.6 or lower to say you have officially reversed your diabetes. Don't believe the "wheat" products are good for diabetics myth or you need to eat plenty of fruits. The sugar in fruit is still fructose. If you have to have fruits, stick with anything in the berry family, but only in moderation.
Get basmati rice soak in water and cook it with a lots of water drain the water put for 16 hours in frig make gl 46

Thank you.
What are these farro etc etc
Don't forget Broccoli
The era where there was no White Rice no Brown Rice... because to make this we need Machine and electricity.
In that era of no machine no electricity.. people our ancestors eat only Human Hand Pounded Natural Rice. It has Lowest GI only 42, Its easy to digest, fast cook, no presoak need. While making it no heat is generated. So all its nutrition saved, all oil of rice grain saved. its taste is saved.
So people just follow your ancestors for food, because you got your DNA from them. I found a Video where people are doing Traditional Human Hand Pounding.

I have grown up eating rice 3x a day, I am now in my 50's still eating rice and I have no health issues.
While I gave you a tick for your comment I don't agree with your diet as even though you might find rice three times a day ok, you're still only fifty. Wait till you're older, you might really regret it. It is still just a sugar so I hope there's more to your diet than that.
@Neith That was childish. Rice turns into nothing but glucose once you put it in your mouth. I can eat nothing but meat and survive on it because it has everything in it that the human body requires. After all, it's the same thing. But unless you want to be turned into glucose (which the body needs little of) keep going.
Every body is nt the same..every person is unique..person who works out all day can die person who has alcohol every day can live upto 60s…just coz u r fine it doesn’t mean they are healthy..Remember every human is unique
@@paviram1038 Everybody is the same. If they live on rubbish and junk food they will die early. No question about it. You can live with rice as the Chinese used to do but they also ate a lot of green vegetables and fish and meat.
Now they're eating the American diet and are suffering the same sicknesses as the rest of us.
You are so lucky. I grew up with rice not potatoes and as a diabetic, rice (white) for sure spikes my sugar I’m 78: developed diabetes in my early 79’s
I have been on KETO for about 1.5 years and I love it and have improved my health lowered my cholesterol, no longer pre diabetes, and lost a bunch of weight. I LOVE all the low carb vegetables and fruit, nuts and seeds etc. I eat cauliflower every week and sometimes I eat an entire head of it in one meal with a chicken breast or whatever meat. I did cauliflower rice for the first time yesterday and the results were outstanding. Quite a surprise. I riced an entire head with a stainless norpro grater using the large holes. It was a bit of work and next time I will try a food processor which I read offers great results with less effort. The texture very much mimicked rice and it was like eating rice. I did it a little al dente and I think that helps. I can eat raw vegetables or steamed without any butter or seasoning just plain steamed veggie and like the vegetable plain flavors. Cauliflower will take on any seasoning you use which makes it great for many various cuisines.
I used to eat Jasmine for Asian dishes, Basmati as an all around regular rice and for Middle eastern/Indian dishes and always with Lamb and I used to use long grain white rice for mexican. Last night I seasoned the cauliflower rice with Turmeric, Fresh cracked black pepper, granulated garlic powder and salt along with EVOO and butter. It came out GREAT! It really resembled basmati although missing the nutty flavor of basmati but the I used for basmati middle eastern dishes really made the cauliflower taste just like the middle eastern basmati rice I used to make.
Cauliflower rice has excellent potential in a variety of cuisine, Middle eastern, Indian, Italian, Mexican and Asian.
I will next make Mexican Spanish rice with the cauliflower using cayenne, granulated garlic powder, onion powder, cracked black pepper, fresh cilantro, butter, evoo.
I will also try making a cauliflower Italian Risotto, with heavy cream, and imported italian pecorino romano, fresh basil, imported dried Italian oregano on the sprig, thyme, ground rosemary, salt, cracked black pepper, imported Calabrian dried red hot peppers, and Evoo and butter.
Asian Cauliflower rice is easy too. I will just and Asian herbs and seasoning accents such as fresh ginger, Sesame oil for added fat and delicious flavoring, sesame seeds, fresh garlic and granulated, coconut milk, lemon/lemon zest, Thai curry paste, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar etc.
Give Cauliflower rice a try, you might be surprised like I was....GOOD LUCK!
Thank you for your kind elaboration.. I had frozen cauliflower rice with Italian herb- it did taste great! Will try your suggestions.. am on brown rice now.
🥱
Riiight On you Free Soul!... don't forget to add Cumin, Sea Salt and Citrus to your Mexican dishes! 😋 Keto has worked for me in myriad healthy ways like nothing else can ever come close to! 😉
@@Georgia-Vic I went on got my blood tested again 2 weeks ago and the doctor messaged me and said I am in safe range for blood sugar it has dropped more 5.1 and my cholesterol has also dropped even more and still safe as it was slightly elevated before I started Keto. There’s no deny it works. The results by so many diabetics and pre diabetics speak for themselves. Anyone that says eating beef, chicken, seafood, pork, lamb, all meats and all seafoods, all poultry are either just ignorant or has the wacko vegan kook agenda.
@@freesoul3371 lol Free Soul it's both plus fear and closed- mindedness!... I've noticed these past 6 months that I can think clearer;no brain fog, I'm losing my spare tire, more energy & endurance, my motivation is back after years,my hope & optimism has returned and my chronic apathy, complacence and depression are rapidly dissolving! Finally last but certainly not least my self respect and confidence that I thought I'd lost has resurfaced all by cutting out empty carbohydrates and refined sugar...Wow!
Brown basmati has a GI of 47. Saved me.
I consume BrownBasmathi rice. Being diabetic I feel millets are far better than brown rice. UR explanation was very educativi👌👌👍
What about millet? It has a low gi and can replace rice.
I am glad that you put details information into the description box. Thanks 🙏, nice 👍 job n video .
I regularly eat a small portion of whole brown rice (called Jyoti Rice in India) for my midday meal. For breakfast, I eat flat bread made from Millet. In winter, flat bread made from Sorghum (instead of Millet) is preferred. Great for diabetics!
Which millet you use for flat bread
I love rice We eat since then but thanks God Almigthy Gid we are healthy
I am type 2 diabetic taking both allopathic and Ayurvedic medicines.Hba1c reading is in between 6 and 7.I am in search of alternative with low GI index.Your video is highly helpful for me and will follow the alternatives suggested in the video.Please continue your videos on low GI index alternatives.Thanks.
Had white rice for the first time in awhile and my blood sugar definitely spiked higher than it does when I eat grain breads or even wheat pasta 😅 it’s cool how our body reacts to things
Yep! The only way to know what and how your body reacts to what YOU are eating! I can eat whatever I want by walking immediately after words to use the glucose available in the bloodstream for muscles!
cool cooked rice in the fridge overnight then reheat, eat and check you sugar levels
@@penniroyal43988
Same thing happened to me. I had rice after 2 months without rice and I started having blurry vision.
If you substitute rice with shirataki or cauliflower rice then you will have less energy if its a staple in your diet because they are lower in calories. Its better to substitute rice with a whole grain like wild rice/quinoa or you can buy lundberg brown rice which is organic, lower in arsenic and lower on the glycemic index
I am of south Asian heritage so rice is a huge part of our diet. I am Diabetic so I had to stop eating rice and spikes my sugar very quickly. I Have discovered cauliflower it certainly is an amazing food. I eat more vegetables now and cut down on my carbs.
Country of South Asia ? Where is it on map?
I’m Asian too and our staple food was rice now I’m diabetic just found out I cut on rice i like quinoa better .I’m on plant based diet
@@deepb249South Asia’s other name is the Indian Subcontinent… you’re very welcome 😉
Good information. Unfortunately Cauliflower is a trigger for Gout it contains the highest level of purines that increases uric acid levels. I have gout and learned this the hard way.
I am using cauliflower without no problem ds
It's not the cauliflower. It's fructose in sugar sucrose, fruits, high fructose corn syrup etc. And alcohol. Watch Sugar The Bitter Truth Dr Robert Lustig on youtube
Hmm and he listed Cauliflower as no.1
@@cheryl239 May b he gets from g farms or gardens
Cauliflower also bad for people with Ibs and sibo disorders

Hello. Just eat a little bit rice at the end . First eat your veg. ect.then the rice and you always be healthy. Japan.🤗
I was thinking this video was going to completely talk about how GOOD is everything about "whole grain" and brown rice without mentioning the harms ....... because this channel is so truthful about mentioning about ARSENIC - this video gets a solid THUMBS UP from me.
Wow, glad I came across your channel! Thanks for your informative video on rice alternatives. Awesome! 🙂🙂😸😸👍👍✌✌🙏🙏
Wow,I've learned a lot!..Thank you !
Basmati and Whole grain basmati has a good glicemic index and also black rice
Thanks u very much for the good lesson for me because leat slot of White ad am diabetic so now I know
Educational, I love it !
Thank you very much for sharing this interesting for diabetic foods 😊 God bless you more
My mom lived for 96 years , ate rice all her life, she had 9 children, we were raised on rice 🍚. None of us have any major health issues, I’m the youngest and still eat rice, noodles etc.... everyday. I still weight the same 110 lbs for the last 35 years and got regular health checkups every year, never have any problems.
Anecdotal evidence means nothing.
Everyone is different if you're insuline Resistance rice is not good for you it will carry up your insuline
What else do you eat with rice is what matters. Meats, organ meats, seafood, fresh herbs and vegetables come with plenty of vitamins and minerals to offset the harmful affects of white rice.
No stress healthy lifestyle much active lifestyle..her mom
My family members too. My great grandparents were hundred years old when they died. Grandparents in 90's. We eat rice 2 times a day. We take organic rice. None had any health problems. No diabetics ,no cancer..... so far no one in the family has covid 19 too.
I love making organic brown rice, it helps keeping the bad cholesterol (LDL) from going thru the roof & helps with the thyroid hormones too.
Thank you for tips about diabetes food
Thanks. We quit rice, potatoes, bread, and pasta a few months ago and both have lost significant weight. We will try these when we want to eat Asian style recipes or soup.
Glad to help, Allen, hope you try them out and enjoy!
So did I .but I didn't loose any weight.
@@audreynicoletti7329 The concept behind eliminating the starches is to control blood sugar levels and spikes. The wrong type of carbs makes your blood sugar spike. When that happens your pancreas releases insulin that prevents you from burning off the glucose and actually pushes the sugar to the liver and your gut (stored as fat), causing weight gain. I am over simplifying. Control the carbs (eliminate sugar as much as possible), control calorie intake, and do intermittent fasting and there is no way you won't lose weight. The longer you go without eating (example 20 hours) the more fat you burn. One pound of fat is equal to 3500 calories, so reducing by 500 calories a day is one pound of fat a week. There are too many variables that I don't know for me to help you dial in a program. Trust me, once you give up sugar you will not be hungry. Dr. Berg has many useful videos also. Don't give up and stick with it. Good luck.
@@cacinaz8802 That you for that explanation listened to keto video but no one explained like that l am on keto for a month now lose s a ton of fat cut out rice pasta flour sugar and potatoes l am insulin Resistant
@@audreynicoletti7329 Watch Elliott Overton and Dr Berg B1 thiamine videos
Recommendations: Eat rice twice a week (half cup).
We Filipinos eat rice thrice a day. Probably 3-4 cups per meal.
Yeah, and it just fine...
'You are what you eat' Is true most Filipinos have diabetes.
Do you Philipinos have diabetes?
@@zjm4130 Okay, you just answered my question.
@@Chicago48 Diabetes is not limited to Filipino's.It is a universal Disease affecting all races of people .China is 1st place has116 mil.followed by India then U S.(diversity) of diff.races.look it up.

Thanks for the info God bless you fantastic idea
Great ideas and very helpful.I'm also doing a diabetic low sodium diet for my husband and I'm also sharing all my ideas and my ways to the world.It's really nice to have someone like you who are willing to help others.Thank you for that.
Has your husband had blood work done? I eat a very low carb diet and my sodium levels had gotten low. I had to increase my salt intake and lower my liquid intake to less than 50 oz per day by my doctors suggestion to raise my sodium levels back to normal.
My favorite one is the hearts of palm rice from Natural Heaven, totally recommend it!
Thanks for sharing
Thank you for information.
good video thanks!
Former T2 diabetic here. Nice video! Good substitute recommendations. But one thing that was not mentioned was that when rice is washed and cooked they lose pretty much all B vitamins. Loss of B vitamins is what leads to Beriberi. Unwashed parboiled rice is a cheaper, more nutritious alternative that actually still tastes like white rice. Shirataki rice tastes gross and super expensive. The others may look like rice but don't taste anything like rice.
How did I reverse my T2 diabetes? I am Asian so white rice is a staple in my culture. I simply gave it up in exhange for my health. I replaced rice with fatty cuts of meat, grass fed butter, pasture raised eggs, seafood, and more saturated fat. Increased my daily salt intake. Lost 60 lbs in 6mths and reversed all of my health markers, including cholesterol. Cholesterol does not cause heart disease by itself. Refined grains, sugar, veg oils, and inflammation do. Carbs are optional but is not an essential macronutrient. What we seek in carbs are actually micronutrients, which animal foods are already loaded with.
Thank you for those comments and ideas. I'm heading towards the meal plan you used to get rid of your T2. I'm African American and rice is a huge part of our staple diet, too. But, yes, I can live without the rice.
I have gone down that exact path for the last 15 months with similar results. Being German I am more into spuds, not rice, but have learned to live with very little of that - a small baked potato about once a month with loads of sour cream/butter/bacon bits and salt. I'm convinced that the guilt helps slow down the glycemic index.....really!
Did you switch to carnivore or keto?
@@ericaBay Yes I went 95% carnivore and supplemented. Boring? Yes. But the health improvements are well worth it for me
Thank you for this information. I will try this.
Thank you Sir. Thos is explosively welcome
Thank you!
I love brown rice and quinoa I'm type 2 diabetic with blood sugar issues meds don't help much I'm on 2 meds thank you for the info I'm trying this god bless who knew omg goodbye rice lol
Are beans a good alternative? What about wild rice? Red rice? Black rice?
Black rice has a GI score of 42. However, I still found that if I eat it more than twice a week, my sugars spike. Whereas white rice can spike my sugars more than 70 points.
Very useful info
Nice information
thank you for the good info. I think moderation is the key .love your video
i generally follow many Health channels.Many videos spread half truths which is even worse.But i can say with confidence that this video is one of the best.Your research and painstaking efforts are worth consideration...i hope you continue doing work like this.

I make brown rice a day ahead then sauté celery,onions,mushrooms. Mix with rice, fry it up and add a TAD of soy sauce. Divine!
Luv basmati brown rice . Have change from the white rice and ut has definitely helpcwith my sugar lefel. Thank u for your infirmation❤
Thank you guys for your work on this channel. I am certain you are changing lives. I am not diabetic but I try to stay clear of high sugar/carb lifestyle. BTW zucchini/courgette is also an easy and fabulous alternative to rice. I am defo going to try the shiritaki noodles.
Brown rice is nice and chewy and has great taste.
Black rice is way better
But it is not available easily.
@@basithzaheersyed7656 in Holland it is.
In India, you get a millet by the name jhangora rice/ samak chawal/ bhagar. Tastes excellent and has very low GI plus GL. Eating this rice with pulses like green gram makes a perfect diabetic diet. Many such options are available in India. Matta rice from Kerala is a delicious non starch rice. Explore! I eat all these options!
Good information sir thank u👌👌
I've been eating rice all my life (I'll be 53 of Feb. 2022)until recently though because of some things I've discovered such as:the high carb content of white rice, all grains add weight and are not healthy for human consumption (it's what's used to add mass to livestock to sell and make profit for companies!) and last but certainly not least of all,yes rice does contain arsenic like everything else but here's the kicker: Arsenic in and of itself isn't necessarily bad because it's a naturally occurring element (in it's natural state that is!) Rice grown in California and Asia is ok but NOT that which is grown in the parts of the Southern U.S. States like:Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas & Arkansas, because during the Early part of the 20th Century from around 1930 until the late '50's the Pesticide Arsenic(synthesized and artificial and unlike the naturally occurring arsenic which is easily digested & assimilated, the one used to kill bugs is still in the soil and doesn't break down,it's taken up into a plant and cannot be washed off because it's in the plant's cells!) was widely used on all agriculture which was a byproduct from Coal Tar (which was a by product of the burning of Coal-used as a production aid for fuel and heating in furnaces in large Corporations) so the take-away is:Rice in No form is beneficial to Humans but if you do ingest it make sure it's Not from the United States (except for Cali where Arsenic wasn't used to spray on food crops!)...BTW the reason rice is rinsed is that rice like beans and anything that is manufactured in mass production should be washed from foreign debris like grease, trash,microbes & bacteria and also washing does get rid of excess starch when cooked(like spaghetti noodles) causes clumping & stickiness to the individual grains which inhibits fluffiness!😉

I’m a 21 year old black male. I eat fonio and quinoa. Both complete proteins with a host of other nutrients. I eat oats too. That’s pretty much it grain wise. Fufu occasionally. Rice goes straight to my gut and I feel like it makes me constipated. I’m a light skin black male not mixed. I say that because race gender and genetics play a role in what foods are right for you. The darker you are the more selenium you need in your diet. The easier you sunburn the more sulfur you need in your diet. I stopped eating certain foods and my life changed. I love how fonio can be made as a porridge or as rice or a stew I highly recommend.
Fonio has been a staple food in West Africans Fulani cooking for centuries, but unfortunately we tend to eat more rice & cheap flour import increasing the rate of diabetes and related health Issues.
Thanks for helpful info!🤲🏿
Never heard of fonio
Where can one get it
I'm too poor to shop where they sell pretty colored food and fancy rice. Cauliflower is doable and maybe Basmati rice. 🤷🏻♀️ I'm beginning to think that I am just going to die from diabetes because I can't afford the food. 😢 Why is healthy food so hard to acquire? It's a basic necessity yet we are paying a ridiculous amounts of money for it. I can't speak for other countries but America sucks on this issue. Be safe and have a good day!✌🏻💙🐾🍽️🇺🇸
Nice video, I love my FreeStyle Libre 14days and Blucon cgm together, both helps me to manage my blood glucose. My Blucon gives me alarms on my and my partner’s phone when I’m high or low so that’s nice.
I eat very little rice, too many carbs and brown rice is not much different on the glycemic index
Thank you sounds amazing
very knowledgeable 👍
Be Blessed!
Yes, as long as you don't buy ready made cauliflower rice instead buy cauliflower and make it into rice.
I was on a low carb diet for over a year. I don’t think I can ever eat another bite of cauliflower rice.
Same here I cannot stand it anymore. cauliflower rice,mash,pizza etc. I'm so done.
Why you guys limit your carb source? So many different low glycemic carbs you do not have to stick to cauliflower. I did low carb, had sweet potatoes, reg potato, yucca root, cream of wheat, oatmeal, quinoa, you have so many different options I never even ate cauliflower.
How can you say reg potato is low carb? If I eat any kind of reg potatoes, it causes my sugar to spike out of sight! I can eat sweet potato, but still have to limit my portions. As for wheat or wheat products, I have to watch my potions there as well. You need to get your facts straight!
I prepared rice after dry rost then 14 bowl water with one bowl for cooking add fenguic seed tej pata dalchini ilachi long mint leaves n basil leaves lemon peel n juice my dibetic control eat with mixed vegetables curry thanks for this nessery information to today world required

The frozen riced cauliflower is amazing as a rice substitute for me. Im not crazy about cauliflower, but when its riced it has the same textural qualities as rice without the spikes.
The only thing about cauliflower rice is that you can't get rid of the taste of the cauliflower. Other than that I agree with you.
I just bought frozen cauliflower rice yesterday for the first time. Curious to see how it is.
Where can i bu cauli rice
@@mamusita9738
If you live in the USA, most grocery stores carry it in the frozen food section. With the rest of the frozen vegetables. If you don’t live in the USA, I don’t know. But you can make it yourself just by cutting up fresh cauliflower into little pieces.
@@alexisreavis7239 i made a chipotle style burrito bowl and said the same thing. when we consumed white rice, my wife would doctor it up with cilantro, lime and some garlic salt. try that. i did it yesterday and it brought a smile to my face.
I’m on keto and IF but still take rice. Nishiki brown rice three times a week. Just 45g dry (per portion) has 32g net carbs and 3g protein. To be fair, I’m not diabetic so I can afford this little indulgence.
You are not on strictly keto to lose weight because it is below 5gram
@@lornalewis7262, you’re right. I’m at my ideal weight range so it’s a flexible keto. But I’m still very mindful for health reasons.
I keep both #4 and #5 in my pantry. I don't really like the taste of cauliflower rice. The konjac rice has almost no taste but I prefer it. If you simmer it in a dish for a while it does take on some flavor. It works well in cajun dishes or with chili and as noodles works well with pepper steak type meals.I generally buy it in packs that include, rice, noodles, pasta and more. Most are zero carb and since I only allow myself 12 carbs per day it works well for me.
Thanks for the information, i mixed white rice with aither sorgum or wheat or i boil brinjoles and stew aside Alhamduli Llah my sugars are ok, from Kenya Mombasa God bless you
