Thank you for not tricking me into watching a 45 minute video just to trick me again into buying something i can't afford. It was genuinely offered nutritional advice.
@@julietesterman I meant all the other videos that lead you into an entire presentation to buy something after a few mins of into. This dr. m doesn’t do that , is all I was trying to say . I too agree with what you said.
That’s true I am a power lifter I am 66 years old and I eat rice twice a week I cook the rice and leave it in the refrigerator for 24 hours. I have a flat muscular belly; I don't eat sugar or fried food. I am healthy for my age I have no diabetes, no cholesterol, no blood pressure, healthy heart and kidneys.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🥳🎊🎉 I can eat rice without gilt. Been Hispanic, rice is the key of our meals, I try my best to reduce the time I eat it specially the one on bottom of the pot that is crispy, but it's so hard for us 😅😅😅😅❤ Thank you for the tip. I'm refrigerating some 🍚 right NOW😂😂😂☝️👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽☝️🙏🏻👑❤🥰😘
@@lilivictorero3686 carbs are like a religion for Latin Americans. I think they love them more then God. You are doomed. The only way to break that craving is very intense exercise and 20 hours a day fasting. You will eventually lose the cravings but it takes a while. You have already trained every cell in your body to crave glucose spikes, which is of course is horrible for your health.
Another helpful tip is to briefly soak your pre-cooked rice in a bowl of cool water. Swish it around, drain and repeat until you have clear water. This removes a lot of starch before you even cook and refrigerate it. Works great with sliced or diced potatoes too..
Awesome! Our family always washed rice till the water ran clear, and we always soaked our potatoes before making dishes, except for mashed potatoes or baked potatoes
This is real! I tested it with my continuous glucose monitor and my blood sugar went down instead of up! AMAZING!!! I am 64 years old and this is the first time I have heard about this. You explain this so well and what a blessing this channel is! Thank you so much!!!
Dr. Mandell, I just saw this about reheating rice on google: What do you think? Tips on serving rice safely "Ideally, serve rice as soon as it's been cooked. If that's not possible, cool the rice as quickly as possible (ideally within 1 hour). Keep rice in the fridge for no more than 1 day until reheating. When you reheat rice, always check that it's steaming hot all the way through. Do not reheat rice more than once.
1. Cook rice/potatoes/pasta/starch food 2. Put it in fridge for at least 12 or 24 hours* 3. You got prebiotics. Interesting. 🍀🍀 Thanks, doc! 🌟 *lowers glycemic index
After cooking my brown rice with quinoa (equal proportions), I keep it in the pot until it gets cold, and then I put it in a container before placing it in the fridge. I only take 2-3 spoons of rice& quinoa every meal with sauteed mixed veggies or fish. So, I'm happy to learn from Dr. Mandell that I have been doing it correctly for almost 10 years now. My A1C results remained at 5.6 for many years so I don't take any maintenance medications and I'm 67 years old.
I agree with the good doctor & I've been doing this method about rice. I'm Asian & rice is our staple. I rinse my rice 3-4 times til it doesn't look starchy, store my cooked rice in the fridge for 20-24 hrs before we eat it. I also freeze my bread before eating it. Works for me! Thanks, Doc!
To everyone reading this, I sincerely pray for that whatever is causing you pain or stress will pass. May your negative thoughts, excessive worries and doubts disappear, replaced by clarity and understanding. May your life be filled with peace, tranquility and love
Well, now I can refrigerate rice, bread 24 hours before eating and not feel guilty about too much carbs. I love rice with my stews and curries. Thank you Dr. Mandell! You are a blessing in our lives. May the lord watch over you, protect you, and fulfil your desires.
What I usually do.I cook a pot of rice for three days ,and refrigerate it. And I would cook whatever strew I want to eat with the rice for that three days .
That award should actually go to Dr. Garrett Smith / Nutrition Detective. Almost completely the opposite of everyone else, and getting the right results that last when all the others work at first, but then fall apart.
The reason why egg fried rice is my thing. To get a good egg fried rice, you have to leave the rice in the fridge overnight after boiling and before frying. The rice keeps its structure more easily as it keeps itself together better. If you fry rice only a little while after boiling it fries up mushy, a telltale sign of too much starch breakdown (ie sugars) in the rice.
Not true. I make delicious fried rice directly after cooking in my rice maker. It’s not mushy at all I just use slightly less than a 1:1 ratio rice to water. A trick I learned throughout the years of fried rice mastery.
@@GoAmeliorateItthat’s coz rice makers are designed specifically for that, hence the name. Try doing it the conventional original way without a rice maker directly after cooking and see if it’s “not true” 🤦🏾

This Channel has been nothing but a Blessing to The World . For those who care enough about their body. And are willing to listen. Best thing of ALL !! You explain it in simple English. And easy to understand. At 62yrs of age ,my life has been drastically changed because of this channel. Thank You Dr Mandell and God Bless
Truly! I started listening and actually making the changes and 6 months later down 39 1/2 lbs. I am near my goal weight of 112 to 115. 5'2" and 59yrs. (gained 50 since covid) I love eating the sourdough bread I make and all I have to do is cut it, freeze & toast it. Makes great sandwiches that I don't have to worry will ruin my eating plan. He is a blessing.
A man from Serious keto (If remembered correctly the name) did really good tests with most of the products an got no improvement at all ! --- he measured his glucose levels, tried normally cooked first, then all sorts of refrigereations etc - basically it's a cheap science as usually picked up by journalists for the sake of hype and majority do not bother to test it :))) what a joke it is :)))) scientists :))))
I did not know refrigerating cooked rice, potatoes, pasta, and even beans lowers the glycemic index but I found it to be true. This video will change how I eat. Thank you.
Mind how you refrigerate cooked foods and reheat them after, in case you get food poisoning! Rice is particularly risky due to the presence of bacterial spores that aren't always killed off when cooked... read up on food safety (official food safety)
When you offer suggestions, they are Always things we can use in our lives to benefit our health. I get so tired of these so called (md's) offering advice and it turns out to be bashing other suggestions or tricking us into watching a 1 minute video that turns into watching a 5 minute video they want to sell in the end. Love you Doc.❤🌹
The Persian method of cooking rice is also very helpful in reducing starch. 1) Before cooking, wash the Rice several times in a large container/pot until the water is clear.(the cloudy water being washed away is some of the starch). 2) Drain the rice and place it in a pot uncovered, add plenty fresh water (as if it is a soup), and a teaspoon of salt, and bring it to boil uncovered. 3) After 3-5 minutes of boiling (when the rice grain easily breaks if you bite it), drain the rice in a sieve. 4) Pour additional fresh water on the rice in the sieve to remove more starch and the salt. 5) Place the drained rice in a pot and add 1/2 cup of water for every 1 cup of rice. 6) Cook it covered, on low/medium heat for about 30/40 minutes. 7) The rice grains will come out beautifully cooked with less starch. Added Note: If you add some butter or fat to the rice after cooking, just like eating any carb with some kind of fat or protein, the absorption rate of the carb is drastically reduced.
The starch is probably still there, but this removes a lot of the lead, which is common in rice because they plant rice using small aircraft that still use leaded fuel, even if it is organic.
@@ChessMasterNate Of course, some starch still remains. But you remove a lot of starch by washing the rice until water is clear (the cloudy water being washed is the starch). And draining the rice after boiling, also removes a lot of starch. But you have a point about also removing some other stuff as well.
@@Webisyen Of course, the Persian/Iranian and Turkish culture have similarities, as they are neighboring countries. You are correct in saying that the issue is not so much about refrigeration, but the removal of the starch as presented by the Persian method.
I was literally about to take rice out of my diet because I kept having problems with the glucose/starch. And the thing is I love my rice. I'm so glad to have learned this! 🎉
I have baked all my bread for 35 years now, every 10 days, freezing it as it doesn't contain any preservatives or additives (it goes old over night) and taking out 2 rolls every morning. And now I hear that I do the right thing!😆😆 So apart from missing all the additives, preservatives, the trippel concentrated gluten that is added, I also miss the carbohydrates! Whow! Ha! I KNEW in my inner person that I did the right thing; now I KNOW. What a day! Best Christmas present ever!

Optional) Leave for 30 min until cool, add 0.5 package of fresh yeast (25 grams) to each bowl. Stir well. Add wheat flour to make elastic dough. (2 kg flour=75 rolls/3 bakes) Leave to raise 30 min. Roll out dough in a long roll. Cut in half, and then each half in half again. Cut each piece in 3 =12 pieces/dough. Flatten with some flour. Leave to raise 30 min. Heat oven to 225° or 450°F. Bake 11-13 min. You can bake fair, medium or brown rolls. The more color, the more taste and crust. Goes well with any cheese, ham, sausage, jam, vego spread or butter only. Takes 3 hrs from start to finish.
I was eating rice with yoghurt stored for 16 hours for my gut problems and never knew how beneficial it would be to control my sugars also. Thank you very much. Doctor. You are an angel.
My great grandmother,grandmother and mother have been cooking their rice like this, first rinsing the rice 5x removing most of the starch,than adding 2 pieces of garlic letting it boil with the rice,helps cut down on starch even more,and we always refrigerate unused rice for another meal.
I absolutely love this video. I do refrigerate my rice and freeze my bread but had no idea this was impacting anything besides keep them fresh. This is great. Thanks doctor.
I do the same. Wash rice first, then cook it, then refrigerate it. I also have always put Mr loaves of bread in the freezer to save it longer. I didn't know the additional benefits of doing either!
True... my family always eat yesterday's rice in the morning after it was refrigerated and heated up. I didn't know this practice is good. Thanks, doc!
I'm cooking for 2. I have been making larger quantities of rice, pasta, and potatoes for years, putting portions in zip lock bags and freezing for later use. I also always wash my rice before cooking. I bake multiple loaves of artisan bread with zero preservatives, refrigerate overnight, slice, pack and freeze the next day in smaller portions for later use too .Thanks for this video, for telling me something I did for my convenience that I didn't know was actually healthy, lol.
In Bharat, we have been doing this for centuries especially during summers, refrigerate cooked rice overnight , then add water, salt & sprinkle some spices; it keeps your body cool along with acting as probiotics & lowering glycemic index.
@@micakingsea9031🤔 maybe you want to educate yourself “Dude” learning something about producing ice(cream) in ancient Egypt etc how to keep things cool in extremely hot climate. Google is your friend 😉 still well known in those “third world” countries especially where electricity is missing.
Thank you, Doc!! I had began to think that I could never enjoy rice, potatoes, bread, or pasta because of the carb factor. I wondered how many cultures could eat it in abundance and not have such great obesity problems as we do here in the western world (specifically USA). My grandmother used to do all of this and NEVER had weight problems. (She transitioned via a natural death, at 94 yrs old.) Again, thank you, Doctor Mandell!!
@@jogrant3851I eaten rice all my life and without rice I think I will die. I am 62 years and 115 pound now my weight was the same as when I was in my 20 or 30. I did cut it a little because now I am a diabetic . I ate the bitter melon to help my blood sugar low and it helps some.
This is WONDERFUL NEWS!!! Thanx tons, Doc!!! You give great practical advice and EZ to follow, too!!! LOVE IT!!! You are a "GEM" in this world!!!

And I know that my hubby and our children have benefited greatly from her input w/health issues advice...and often!!! Sure do miss her dearly.
I tried this last night I cooked a 1/4 cup of rice and refrigerated it for 12+ hours and slightly warming it in microwave for 35 seconds (after it sat out for about an hour) my glucose before eating was 92 and 30 minutes later it was 113. Last time I ate rice roughly the same quantity it went up 50+ points. I’m going to do it again to see if I get similar results 😊 God bless you all❤
We also add water in that and drink it. U can add some onion. Little til oil or little pickle. Can also add butter milk( it is a South Indian dish very famous
Please, do check your blood glucose one or 2 hrs post meal too, make sure that the real peak hasn't been delayed. Looking forward to the result. Many thanks.
@@lynseck8739 I actually did, my apologies. My glucose had went back down to 92, 2 hours post meal. I am going to try it tomorrow after fasting. I’m so interested to see the results. I did a poke sushi bowl just as a fyi. I’m going to do the same amount of rice. This time I’m going warm it a tad bit longer tomorrow. I will report back.
Hay Doc. I love you, I’ve lost 35 pounds in the 2 months I stopped eating sugar, bread, serials, potatoes and one that hurt the most is rice but you just made my day and I’m so happy that I can eat rice only have to eat it next day if refrigerated that’s great news for me
This is not true. There is research proving it is not true. One new study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition details a controlled study about this resistant starch theory. The study found that if you cooked starch and refrigerated it overnight that it changed nothing regarding the glycemic activity of the rice, and it didn't change the way it is absorbed/digested in the body. It changed nothing at all. Starch is starch. It is long sugar chains and will break down into sugar regardless of whether you refrigerate it. Telling prediabetics and diabetics that this is a safe option is irresponsible and false.
Sushmita: basmati rice is known as 'the queen of rice' You get different grades but the best one is the 'Premium' brand👌 Almost NO starch when cooked (READY IN 7-10 mins) and thereafter steamed. It's super light, feathery but filling👌 My ethnicity is Indian and we grew up on basmati rice so I know it works 🙏 ❤
Wexeat jeeranga rice in Bengaluru & I can't live without it.But illbtrycwhat doc said abd basmati rice I use Tilda which is GMO FREE.Ill.keave my experience here next week.
I love this guy he’s a hero, basically refrigerate your rice after you cook it for at least 12-24 hours to reduce the impact it will have on your glucose levels when you consume it
I would like to see Mr Mandel's evidence for these claims. There is video on YT where the presenter does this to rice, bread and potatoes and then eats them. He then tests his blood sugar and it is exactly the same as the rice, bread and potatoes that were not put in the fridge.
I thought the “trick” would be to add some healthy fats like EVO, avocado, etc to lower the glycemic index. That’s a proven fact to counter the high GI of rice and potatoes
Thank you Doctor,exactly what I'm doing. I cook big batch of rice,cool it n put in the fridge n heat what is needed. I don't cook it everyday,it saves electricity as well.❤
I do the same, I cook about 4 portions, but I freeze mine in airtight containers. The night before I plan to eat it, I take it out, and put it in the fridge to defrost.
I have a type 1 diabetic child and we have found white rice to be one of the best foods for glucose control. No spikes at all. We usually cook and refrigerate, and now we know why it has worked so well. Child uses a continuous glucose monitor so we know blood glucose for sure.
You are the hero we all need but don’t deserve. Many ppl feel they can’t leave carbs so seeing that there is a way to make them less harmful to our body is fantastic! Thank you so much Doc !
This is fantastic! I did not know we have been doing the right thing with the rice and bread by accident. We cook rice that’s good for a week and refrigerate. We re-heat what we need. We don’t eat bread daily. When we buy a loaf, we freeze most of it. Thanks Dr Mandel!
That is how I lost weight after few months consumed overnight rice in the next day. Same portion of rice, but i lost weight. Thanks for this video for explaining why I lost weight. I will continue this practice as long as I can.
So great to know rice can heal the gut and prepping it this way helps with the starch. Fair warning to people doing this; don't keep it leftover in the fridge TOO long. Rice that goes bad won't look or smell bad for a long time. Before then it can easily give you food poisoning. I found out the hard way!
@@aracelyrodriguez8314 I'm not sure, but the rice I got extremely ill from was possibly in my fridge 7-10 days. I think it starts getting this bad bacteria on it within hours, so I wouldn't keep it more than 2 days.
From the Health Inspector's Handbook; Cooked white rice is good for 4-7 days in a 40° fridge if it's cooled and refrigerated within a short time after cooking. Cooked brown rice can only be refrigerated for 4-5 days if it's cooled quickly and kept at 40°. 8-10 days in the refrigerator is only good for the garbage can, you should have frozen it instead. Personally, if I have so much rice that I can't finish it in 4-5 days I'm going to freeze much of it in individual portions or I'm going to cook less rice!
Thanks again fantastic scientific idea for rice lover and I am diabetes and after eating next after 16 hours my reading showing good results, God bless you Doctor and bless you with long and happy life together with you family In Shaa Allah Amin
now that explains why i have heart palpitations when eating rice straight after it's cooked, same with pasta..fantastic info Dr Mandell, i'm eternally greatful!
It's been so wonderful to have, rice, potatoes, pasta and bread back in my diet. I can eat them again without spiking my blood glucose at all. Both my blood glucose meter and my CGM as well as my hba1c confirm it. I have rice cooking in one pressure cooker and potatoes in another right now. After 1-2 days in the refrigerator I can enjoy them without fear. My husband who isn't T2 diabetic like me also appreciates it. Thank you for your videos. Make it a great day!
Thank you for this. I'm going to do this as from today. Sliced bread goes into the freezer. Rice/pasta or potatoes are cooked a day before, cooled and then refrigerated. Reheated right before meals. Easy Peasy!
No that is not entirely a solution by itself, although it can be beneficial. You will just end up eating more to satiate the cravings for glucose spikes because your cells are out of whack. The only way to break that craving is very intense exercise and 20 hours a day fasting. You will eventually lose the cravings but it takes a while. You have already trained every cell in your body to crave glucose spikes, which is of course is horrible for your health.
@@Anonymint-vj7bt and when the cravings stop, there is still the battle against The Habit. At least if you were a habitual snacker. What to do when watching a show? Snacks have to go. They are just a band-aid for insufficient metabolic flexibility. Resist the habit. Snack on a glass of water instead. I mix in some electrolytes, I kinda got fond of the salty taste.
@@notjustforme spot on. Daily fasting from dinner to dinner works wonders. Actually it was my pinay who suggested to me to drink water to satiate the cravings. She had a lot of experience in her youth with the hunger games of abject poverty. Westerners lost the metabolic flexibility to go without a meal.

I quit eating rice many years ago because I was told many times that it was bad for me, ( it was my favorite food) Thank you for the great information as I can go back to eating it, and it is a cheaper alternative to many other foods. Again many thanks.😊
My Dad was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes mellitus 37 years back. He needed insulin to control his blood glucose levels. But after he started eating rice that was frozen and then reheated 2 years back .. he no longer requires insulin and his blood glucose levels never rise above 7 mmol/L . I am really grateful.
This is great because I rinse wash 3 times then soak in apple cider water overnight rinse again then pressure cook, then into freezer 100 gram portions moulds. But I never realised what I was naturally doing was very very good ..so thank you for explaining . ❤
This one video may have just changed me life. We have a "starchy foods" grocery budget, but being diabetic, I feel like I'm poisoning myself regularly. Learning that I can make a few changes that will radically change my health is so exciting!
Diabetes is a condition where the bodie's cells that store glycogen are unable to do so due to being at full capacity and the liver is unable to do either due to it being at full capacity. Glycogen is used to provide energy to your muscles; therefore, the more muscle you have, the more glycogen your body can properly utilize. With this explanation in mind, have you tried a higher protein diet?? If you combine that type of diet with a good excersice regime for building muscle it would help to eliminate your diabetic problems
@IsBeyond First off, thank you for taking the time to reply with that information. We do eat protein regularly, but it is "stretched" with the carbs. Do you have a suggestion on how many grams per day of protein I should aim towards? And is the kind of protein found in legumes (pinto beans, etc.) suitable, or do I need to aim towards meat and eggs?
@OurWeeTennesseeHomestead You're welcome!! I practice body building, so personally, I try to adhere to a 1g of protein per pound of body weight model. Studies and testimonials from others say you can consume as low as .7g of protein per pound of body weight or a higher range of 1.3g of protein per pound of body weight to be in an optimal range for building muscle. The main thing to keep in mind is that every person is different; your genetics play a heavy role in the equation. You will need to play around with your diet so that you can consume the amount you find most comfortable. As for protein quality, you can continue to consume legumes as a source of protein and see results in building muscle. Actual meats and eggs are among the highest quality proteins you can consume, and you will see greater results from consuming those regularly. Eggs specifically have the best nutrient profile, and in my experience, I saw the most significant results from consuming more eggs in my diet. Eggs contain the necessary genetic makeup to spawn a lifeform.
@OurWeeTennesseeHomestead Ahhh, you're so lucky!! Sourcing your protein from reputable sources is so important. You can tell the difference between healthy chicken eggs and the ones that are just raised in whatever conditions and pumped with chemicals
I’m haitian & my family eats rice everyday. Most days it’s left over rice. It’s part of our culture & the foundation of our diet along with an extremely nutrient vegetable based marinate we make from scratch. My parents are in their 60s, some other members are 70+. Their pretty active but don’t formally exercise. None of them are on ANY medications and are quite healthy. Wonder if this has to do with it.
Dr Mandel all your videos and reels are extremely helpful. However I request you to please add the written script or subtitles, whatever you call them, in your videos, to make them even more effective, especially the tips that you want to share. Thank you so much for being so helpful publicly.
Should be brown rice. Why we separate the husk from the rice is interesting. The husk is the fiber we need to generate paristalsis in the intestinal track and move out the waste
I always leave my left over rice in the fridge bc we don’t eat rice as much. Knowing this now I can enjoy my fried rice without guilt! Thank you dr. Mandel for this info! God bless!
One is supposed to use 'old' boiled/steamed rice, preferably overnight for fried rice anyway. It makes the rice grains harder and not stick together when you actually fry it (at super high heat)
im starting to get ready to make curries and more rice dishes this is so good. first food i go to when i try to be a part time vegan Rice my first go to,love it with all veggies.this is fantastic!
I often toast rice while dry with garlic and onions before I boil with other spices. This was from a Mexican recipe. Didn't know it was better for glycemic reasons too. Another tip is to soak it in water before cooking. The water will get cloudy so drain it. Repeat until water is clear. I got this from a Japanese recipe.
Thank you, Dr. Mandell! I will definitely be cooking my rice, potatoes, and pasta a day before I will be using them. Love these tips, keep them coming, you are appreciated!
Thank you Dr. For your great advice... I am from Sri Lanka the smallest island in the world and consuming rice mostly 3 times a day... Let me spread the good news to all Sri Lankans❤
My grand mothers live her whole life eating rice 3times a day.. She live for 102 years.. No diet nothing I don't know how but she have no health problems passed away peacefully.. ❤without any sickness
that's the problem with cherry picked samples.. i had a family member which chain smoked his entire life and got 95 and a family member which died on lung cancer while not smoking. it doesn't mean smoking prevents lung cancer nor makes a long life more likely
@bellaherman9000: "live for 102 years" __________________________________ Ok, good for her. My colleague ate everything and died at 42 years old, so, what is the lesson we took from your granny and my colleague lives?
Yes’ I’ve done it to my cooked rice and I also did it to my wheat bread .There’s really no harm in trying. A nice suggestion Dr. Mandel…thanks for your concern. GOD bless you.

@@sidecarmisanthrope5927 I just now watched Serious Keto on his 4th vid of trying these cold/freeze methods & he came up with it being bunk - that no matter what he does, there's a spike. HOWEVER, intake of fat with it blunts the spikes. So fats seems to be what works best over cold.
@@sidecarmisanthrope5927 Well how can that be if you rinse the rice until the water is clear - it has removed some of the starch , cook it and rinse again and it’s still removing even more of the starch Vs. Just boiling the rice, strain and then eat.
I did this without even know I was doing this. I quit wheat because I found out I was allergic to wheat gluten. And I can’t cook for myself 3 times a day so I was cooking once and refrigerating the rest for next meal. In a year, all my joint inflammation is gone, gut health has improved tremendously, I’ve lost 5 kgs without even trying. I can vouch that everything you said is accurate. 🙏
@@Sheepdog1314 There will be no need for me to see you as I always have plenty. This will never change - I live in abundance of every good thing because I believe and trust in the God of over abundance. There is no lack in the kingdom 🥰👍.

I always keep my bread, rice and flours in my freezer. This lowers the glycemic process you’re speaking of also. It’s works the same for baked bread if you freeze it before you toast it. Happy Health!
@@VB-lc4xz Never put your baked goods in the fridge. The typical refrigeration temperatures actually encourage the staling process and degrade the quality faster. Strange but true - freezer is best.
I was raised by my thai grandmother and eat white jasmine rice almost everyday. Now im 38m, jacked and ripped, 3-4 workouts a week with healthy nutritional lifestyle. Not sure if it will effect me much but i will def try it. Very interesting scientific analysis. Thank you.
In India, as per ancient practice that some follow till now, is not to use rice cooker to cook rice. Instead we boil with more water till it cooks and then drain the excess starch.
Wow! I generally put all my breads in the refrigerator post shopping until ready to use and did not realize I was cutting my starches down by accident.
I was recently diagnosed as diabetic and I am determined to reverse my numbers through diet. I've been focusing on all the great food I CAN eat as opposed to lamenting what I can't eat. I have been freezing my homemade bread as per your advice and NOW my list of foods i can eat has gleefully gotten larger with the info in this video! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I use a similar method to manage rheumatoid arthritis. Focusing on the stuff I CAN eat, (and there's plenty of great stuff) rather than worrying about the 'try to avoid' list. Have definitely noticed the difference. Cheers from Oz 🇦🇺
Sugar level 7 used to be normal but now be careful they will keep bringing it down and down so that we become serious thinkers about sugar levels only and get actually sick!

What a great video! I am Asian. I have rice in my DNA!! Now I can go keto and still have a small amount of rice, yay!!! I use Black 'Sweet' Rice, Red Cargo Rice, Wild Rice, and Brown Rice, not White. I make a pilaf, top it with roasted nuts, dried cherries, dried cranberries. I usually make a big batch so I have to refrigerate it and reheat it. I think too, if you cook rice and drain the water, you remove a lot of the starch. Furthermore, some Asian cultures make fermented rice such as Bengal, all of Southern India, and all the way to Australia. These are traditional health foods. Thank you, Doc, for an excellent video!
I am diabetic and I love rice! Just can’t eat white rice. I eat brown and red rice and wild rice with flax chia and other grains. Really works for me, but now I know a better way to eat white rice! Thank you! I put your advice to work, like eating garlic!
Same, even raw. It keeps the moths away. Had to do the same to keep wheat weewils away from flour. But it's even more practical after cooking as it takes quite a bit of time to cool off which is annoying when you just want to eat something quick.
I'm Cuban. We eat rice with the majority of our meals. I love it! Thank you for this video. I'm diabetic so this is really good news. I dont have to deprive myself of rice or pasta anymore.
You still need to deprive yourself. You Latin Americans eat way too much carbs. I am pre-diabetic at least. Age 58. Lifelong athlete. Any starch sends me in a spiral. The most effective strategy is 18 - 22 hour daily fasting, intense barbell+HIIT exercise, combined with radical decrease in net carbs to ~20g per day. Replace with more healthy fats but again control portions. Vegetable oils (including olive oil) are horrific for our health. If you must take fats from non-meats, then the avocado (which is a fruit) seems quite healthy. Avoid nearly all processed foods, as it is laden with HFCs, vegetable oils and other toxins. Even dairy is all messed up by pasteurization and homogenization, not like how we used to drink it delivered daily as raw milk in glass jars to our doorstep.
@@Anonymint-vj7bt I agree with most of this. However, olive oil isn’t horrific for our health at all. The statistics on olive oil are great. Especially if you don’t heat it. Sprankle it every day on your salad or vegetables and it will contribute to your health!

That’s true I am a power lifter I am 66 years old and I eat rice twice a week I cook the rice and leave it in the refrigerator for 24 hours. I have a flat muscular belly; I don't eat sugar or fried food. I am healthy for my age I have no diabetes, no cholesterol, no blood pressure, healthy heart and kidneys.
Super
twice a week? as if that says anything, especially with the amount of training you do
Hi, that sounds wonderful. Would you share with us the ways to maintain a healthy lifestyle without disease? Thank you so much.

Thank you for the tip.
I'm refrigerating some 🍚 right NOW😂😂😂☝️👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽☝️🙏🏻👑❤🥰😘
@@lilivictorero3686 carbs are like a religion for Latin Americans. I think they love them more then God. You are doomed. The only way to break that craving is very intense exercise and 20 hours a day fasting. You will eventually lose the cravings but it takes a while. You have already trained every cell in your body to crave glucose spikes, which is of course is horrible for your health.
Another helpful tip is to briefly soak your pre-cooked rice in a bowl of cool water. Swish it around, drain and repeat until you have clear water. This removes a lot of starch before you even cook and refrigerate it. Works great with sliced or diced potatoes too..
Been doing that for years. Great tip. I use a metal mesh strainer and a bowl.
Many people from different countries do that like in African and Asian countries.
i've always rinse my rice until clear water, most spanish cooking is that way
And it helps to wash off arsenic especially after rinsing cook it like pasta and drain in collinder when cooked and rinse again.
Awesome! Our family always washed rice till the water ran clear, and we always soaked our potatoes before making dishes, except for mashed potatoes or baked potatoes

Dr. Mandell, I just saw this about reheating rice on google: What do you think?
Tips on serving rice safely
"Ideally, serve rice as soon as it's been cooked.
If that's not possible, cool the rice as quickly as possible (ideally within 1 hour).
Keep rice in the fridge for no more than 1 day until reheating.
When you reheat rice, always check that it's steaming hot all the way through.
Do not reheat rice more than once.
1. Cook rice/potatoes/pasta/starch food
2. Put it in fridge for at least 12 or 24 hours*
3. You got prebiotics.
Interesting. 🍀🍀
Thanks, doc! 🌟
*lowers glycemic index
thank God for U,Dr.Mantel.
After cooking my brown rice with quinoa (equal proportions), I keep it in the pot until it gets cold, and then I put it in a container before placing it in the fridge. I only take 2-3 spoons of rice& quinoa every meal with sauteed mixed veggies or fish. So, I'm happy to learn from Dr. Mandell that I have been doing it correctly for almost 10 years now. My A1C results remained at 5.6 for many years so I don't take any maintenance medications and I'm 67 years old.
Can you cover it? Should it stay uncovered?
@@ObeyNoLiesIf you don't cover it, it'll dry out.
I don't get it. 04:12 "...never gets digested, we never get the calories...this scientific tip..." > So, the rice becomes a zero-calorie food?
I agree with the good doctor & I've been doing this method about rice. I'm Asian & rice is our staple. I rinse my rice 3-4 times til it doesn't look starchy, store my cooked rice in the fridge for 20-24 hrs before we eat it. I also freeze my bread before eating it. Works for me! Thanks, Doc!
Same here. From 🇸🇱
So do you reheat the rice in a microwave before you eat it? (of course I mean after you remove it from the fridge).

The reason why egg fried rice is my thing. To get a good egg fried rice, you have to leave the rice in the fridge overnight after boiling and before frying. The rice keeps its structure more easily as it keeps itself together better. If you fry rice only a little while after boiling it fries up mushy, a telltale sign of too much starch breakdown (ie sugars) in the rice.
Czemu masz flagę ukrainy w tle?
Not true. I make delicious fried rice directly after cooking in my rice maker. It’s not mushy at all I just use slightly less than a 1:1 ratio rice to water. A trick I learned throughout the years of fried rice mastery.
Uncle Roger’s number one trick
@@GoAmeliorateItthat’s coz rice makers are designed specifically for that, hence the name. Try doing it the conventional original way without a rice maker directly after cooking and see if it’s “not true” 🤦🏾

Dr. Mandell hat die besten Ratschläge für Menschen, die gesund leben wollen. Und das ohne Werbung in UA-cam. Ein wahrer Samariter.
Vos ist Ratschlage? Danke Gute? Ich have swie yaren Deutche classes 😮.
The Persian method of cooking rice is also very helpful in reducing starch. 1) Before cooking, wash the Rice several times in a large container/pot until the water is clear.(the cloudy water being washed away is some of the starch). 2) Drain the rice and place it in a pot uncovered, add plenty fresh water (as if it is a soup), and a teaspoon of salt, and bring it to boil uncovered. 3) After 3-5 minutes of boiling (when the rice grain easily breaks if you bite it), drain the rice in a sieve. 4) Pour additional fresh water on the rice in the sieve to remove more starch and the salt. 5) Place the drained rice in a pot and add 1/2 cup of water for every 1 cup of rice. 6) Cook it covered, on low/medium heat for about 30/40 minutes. 7) The rice grains will come out beautifully cooked with less starch.
Added Note: If you add some butter or fat to the rice after cooking, just like eating any carb with some kind of fat or protein, the absorption rate of the carb is drastically reduced.
Thank you! I will try this. :)
The starch is probably still there, but this removes a lot of the lead, which is common in rice because they plant rice using small aircraft that still use leaded fuel, even if it is organic.
@@ChessMasterNate Of course, some starch still remains. But you remove a lot of starch by washing the rice until water is clear (the cloudy water being washed is the starch). And draining the rice after boiling, also removes a lot of starch. But you have a point about also removing some other stuff as well.
We do something similar in Turkiye. However in both our methods there is no refrigeration involved. We should add it somewhere in the process.
@@Webisyen Of course, the Persian/Iranian and Turkish culture have similarities, as they are neighboring countries. You are correct in saying that the issue is not so much about refrigeration, but the removal of the starch as presented by the Persian method.
I'm asian who's eating rice and noodles 3 meals a day , after this video my family have change the way eating rice.

I was literally about to take rice out of my diet because I kept having problems with the glucose/starch. And the thing is I love my rice. I'm so glad to have learned this! 🎉

@@APOWER385 there isn't one special receipe. Just Look for sourdough bread on UA-cam. You'll find a lot of suggestions.
@@APOWER385 Oat rolls (24 p)
Put 2 dl regular oats
1 tsp salt
2 tsp sugar ( in each of two 2 L bowls)
Add 4 dl BOILING water in each bowl, stir well.
(Add raisins, apricots here. Optional)
Leave for 30 min until cool, add 0.5 package of fresh yeast (25 grams) to each bowl. Stir well. Add wheat flour to make elastic dough. (2 kg flour=75 rolls/3 bakes)
Leave to raise 30 min.
Roll out dough in a long roll.
Cut in half, and then each half in half again.
Cut each piece in 3 =12 pieces/dough.
Flatten with some flour.
Leave to raise 30 min. Heat oven to 225° or 450°F.
Bake 11-13 min. You can bake fair, medium or brown rolls. The more color, the more taste and crust. Goes well with any cheese, ham, sausage, jam, vego spread or butter only. Takes 3 hrs from start to finish.

@@TearThatRedFlagDown thank you so much, sounds great I appreciate it.
This is not true. There is research proving it is not true. One new study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition details a controlled study about this resistant starch theory. The study found that if you cooked starch and refrigerated it overnight that it changed nothing regarding the glycemic activity of the rice, and it didn't change the way it is absorbed/digested in the body. It changed nothing at all. Starch is starch. It is long sugar chains and will break down into sugar regardless of whether you refrigerate it.
Telling prediabetics and diabetics that this is a safe option is irresponsible and false.

I would like to see Mr Mandel's evidence for these claims. There is video on YT where the presenter does this to rice, bread and potatoes and then eats them. He then tests his blood sugar and it is exactly the same as the rice, bread and potatoes that were not put in the fridge.
I thought the “trick” would be to add some healthy fats like EVO, avocado, etc to lower the glycemic index. That’s a proven fact to counter the high GI of rice and potatoes
Thank you Doctor,exactly what I'm doing.
I cook big batch of rice,cool it n put in the fridge n heat what is needed.
I don't cook it everyday,it saves electricity as well.❤
The more times you re-heat and refreeze it the lower the glucose index will go.
I do the same, I cook about 4 portions, but I freeze mine in airtight containers. The night before I plan to eat it, I take it out, and put it in the fridge to defrost.
I have done this to sweet potatoes and didn't realize this process can be applied to other foods. I feel like a whole new world just opened up!

@@aracelyrodriguez8314 I'm not sure, but the rice I got extremely ill from was possibly in my fridge 7-10 days. I think it starts getting this bad bacteria on it within hours, so I wouldn't keep it more than 2 days.
From the Health Inspector's Handbook;
Cooked white rice is good for 4-7 days in a 40° fridge if it's cooled and refrigerated within a short time after cooking.
Cooked brown rice can only be refrigerated for 4-5 days if it's cooled quickly and kept at 40°.
8-10 days in the refrigerator is only good for the garbage can, you should have frozen it instead.
Personally, if I have so much rice that I can't finish it in 4-5 days I'm going to freeze much of it in individual portions or I'm going to cook less rice!
Thank you. And in under 5 minutes. I'm a new fan. You cut through the bullshit to the facts beautifully.
Thanks again fantastic scientific idea for rice lover and I am diabetes and after eating next after 16 hours my reading showing good results, God bless you Doctor and bless you with long and happy life together with you family In Shaa Allah Amin
Thank you so much Dr. Mandel. As a filipino, I love eating rice and now I'm 44, I gain weight so easily. Now I can enjoy rice with less carbs.
The fat you eat is the fat you wear Carbs for the win
now that explains why i have heart palpitations when eating rice straight after it's cooked, same with pasta..fantastic info Dr Mandell, i'm eternally greatful!
It's been so wonderful to have, rice, potatoes, pasta and bread back in my diet. I can eat them again without spiking my blood glucose at all. Both my blood glucose meter and my CGM as well as my hba1c confirm it. I have rice cooking in one pressure cooker and potatoes in another right now. After 1-2 days in the refrigerator I can enjoy them without fear. My husband who isn't T2 diabetic like me also appreciates it. Thank you for your videos. Make it a great day!
Do you put the rice in ref after it is cooked ??
is it okay to re heat the rice?
@@linda1881 let it cool down first
@@littlelulu7403 yes.
Yes, a good practice
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26693746/
Thank you for this. I'm going to do this as from today. Sliced bread goes into the freezer. Rice/pasta or potatoes are cooked a day before, cooled and then refrigerated. Reheated right before meals. Easy Peasy!
Nowadays I've been having to eat loads of rice because its affordable. Thank you for this!! I appreciate you👊
Best advice I’ve seen on UA-cam regarding rice and insulin resistance. I’m starting it today.
This is life changing. I have been depriving myself of bread, rice etc,(which I crave the most) because of the starch.
No that is not entirely a solution by itself, although it can be beneficial. You will just end up eating more to satiate the cravings for glucose spikes because your cells are out of whack. The only way to break that craving is very intense exercise and 20 hours a day fasting. You will eventually lose the cravings but it takes a while. You have already trained every cell in your body to crave glucose spikes, which is of course is horrible for your health.
If rice is life-changing, you really need to re-evaluate life.

@@Anonymint-vj7bt and when the cravings stop, there is still the battle against The Habit. At least if you were a habitual snacker. What to do when watching a show?
Snacks have to go. They are just a band-aid for insufficient metabolic flexibility.
Resist the habit. Snack on a glass of water instead. I mix in some electrolytes, I kinda got fond of the salty taste.
@@notjustforme spot on. Daily fasting from dinner to dinner works wonders. Actually it was my pinay who suggested to me to drink water to satiate the cravings. She had a lot of experience in her youth with the hunger games of abject poverty. Westerners lost the metabolic flexibility to go without a meal.

I quit eating rice many years ago because I was told many times that it was bad for me, ( it was my favorite food) Thank you for the great information as I can go back to eating it, and it is a cheaper alternative to many other foods. Again many thanks.😊
My Dad was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes mellitus 37 years back. He needed insulin to control his blood glucose levels. But after he started eating rice that was frozen and then reheated 2 years back .. he no longer requires insulin and his blood glucose levels never rise above 7 mmol/L . I am really grateful.
This is great because I rinse wash 3 times then soak in apple cider water overnight rinse again then pressure cook, then into freezer 100 gram portions moulds. But I never realised what I was naturally doing was very very good ..so thank you for explaining . ❤
This one video may have just changed me life. We have a "starchy foods" grocery budget, but being diabetic, I feel like I'm poisoning myself regularly. Learning that I can make a few changes that will radically change my health is so exciting!
Diabetes is a condition where the bodie's cells that store glycogen are unable to do so due to being at full capacity and the liver is unable to do either due to it being at full capacity. Glycogen is used to provide energy to your muscles; therefore, the more muscle you have, the more glycogen your body can properly utilize.
With this explanation in mind, have you tried a higher protein diet?? If you combine that type of diet with a good excersice regime for building muscle it would help to eliminate your diabetic problems
@IsBeyond First off, thank you for taking the time to reply with that information. We do eat protein regularly, but it is "stretched" with the carbs. Do you have a suggestion on how many grams per day of protein I should aim towards? And is the kind of protein found in legumes (pinto beans, etc.) suitable, or do I need to aim towards meat and eggs?
@OurWeeTennesseeHomestead
You're welcome!!
I practice body building, so personally, I try to adhere to a 1g of protein per pound of body weight model. Studies and testimonials from others say you can consume as low as .7g of protein per pound of body weight or a higher range of 1.3g of protein per pound of body weight to be in an optimal range for building muscle.
The main thing to keep in mind is that every person is different; your genetics play a heavy role in the equation. You will need to play around with your diet so that you can consume the amount you find most comfortable.
As for protein quality, you can continue to consume legumes as a source of protein and see results in building muscle. Actual meats and eggs are among the highest quality proteins you can consume, and you will see greater results from consuming those regularly.
Eggs specifically have the best nutrient profile, and in my experience, I saw the most significant results from consuming more eggs in my diet. Eggs contain the necessary genetic makeup to spawn a lifeform.
@IsBeyond 😊 We have chickens, and I love to eat eggs, so that part will be easy!
@OurWeeTennesseeHomestead
Ahhh, you're so lucky!! Sourcing your protein from reputable sources is so important. You can tell the difference between healthy chicken eggs and the ones that are just raised in whatever conditions and pumped with chemicals
I’m haitian & my family eats rice everyday. Most days it’s left over rice. It’s part of our culture & the foundation of our diet along with an extremely nutrient vegetable based marinate we make from scratch.
My parents are in their 60s, some other members are 70+. Their pretty active but don’t formally exercise. None of them are on ANY medications and are quite healthy. Wonder if this has to do with it.
Can you tell more about vegetable based marinate you make?
Please share marinade unless it is a family secret. Thank you.
We’d love to hear more about this marinade and what veggies you commonly eat.

Dr Mandel all your videos and reels are extremely helpful. However I request you to please add the written script or subtitles, whatever you call them, in your videos, to make them even more effective, especially the tips that you want to share.
Thank you so much for being so helpful publicly.
Should be brown rice. Why we separate the husk from the rice is interesting. The husk is the fiber we need to generate paristalsis in the intestinal track and move out the waste
I've been eating brown basmati rice almost daily for the past 30 years. I'll never stop loving it. I'm 65 and rarely get sick.
I always leave my left over rice in the fridge bc we don’t eat rice as much. Knowing this now I can enjoy my fried rice without guilt! Thank you dr. Mandel for this info! God bless!
One is supposed to use 'old' boiled/steamed rice, preferably overnight for fried rice anyway. It makes the rice grains harder and not stick together when you actually fry it (at super high heat)
I've been doing this for more than three years now. There's no going back.
Do you microwave or heat before eating
OMG life-changing, I can eat Rice again! Dr. Mandell, you're the Best! Thank You So Much!
I just can't do without rice , now I can eat it without the guilt ! Thank you doc you are amazing 💕
Love rice , but don’t eat it often , but now I will refrigerate it and eat it more often. Thank you
As a vegetarian with rice as a staple, it is such a great relief to know this. Thank you ❤
@Drebin50 cows from grass fed = gives butter also.=Pure Irish butter Kerrygold from grassfed cows
im starting to get ready to make curries and more rice dishes this is so good. first food i go to when i try to be a part time vegan Rice my first go to,love it with all veggies.this is fantastic!
@Drebin50that to with the rice
I often toast rice while dry with garlic and onions before I boil with other spices. This was from a Mexican recipe. Didn't know it was better for glycemic reasons too. Another tip is to soak it in water before cooking. The water will get cloudy so drain it. Repeat until water is clear. I got this from a Japanese recipe.
Thank you, Dr. Mandell! I will definitely be cooking my rice, potatoes, and pasta a day before I will be using them. Love these tips, keep them coming, you are appreciated!
I like rice but I feel bloated after eating
I didn't know why
I have heard diabetes experts say this. This is backed by science. I am a rice eater and so this helps.
Ya, no kidding...as a Filipina I'm sure you eat tonnes of rice
You've explained this better than anyone else I've heard.
Thank you Dr. For your great advice... I am from Sri Lanka the smallest island in the world and consuming rice mostly 3 times a day... Let me spread the good news to all Sri Lankans❤
Sri Lanka isn’t the smallest island in the world
My grand mothers live her whole life eating rice 3times a day.. She live for 102 years.. No diet nothing
I don't know how but she have no health problems passed away peacefully.. ❤without any sickness
She probably prewashes the rice ...you need to remove all the starch so the water is clear.
that's the problem with cherry picked samples..
i had a family member which chain smoked his entire life and got 95 and a family member which died on lung cancer while not smoking.
it doesn't mean smoking prevents lung cancer nor makes a long life more likely
@bellaherman9000: "live for 102 years"

@@yaredmussie4086 yeah in Asia we. Wash the rice.. 3 to 5 times before cooking it.
@@AlekSaltproduction maybe is destiny 😊
It also fights fatty liver! New research has shown. Green bananas do a great job for that as well. Amazing stuff, those resistant starches.
Yes’ I’ve done it to my cooked rice and I also did it to my wheat bread .There’s really no harm in trying. A nice suggestion Dr. Mandel…thanks for your concern. GOD bless you.
Dr. Mandell is the BEST. God bless him for all the knowledge he gives and saves so many people's lives. Blessings to him and his family
I would like to see Mr Mandel's evidence for these claims. There is video on YT where the presenter does this to rice, bread and potatoes and then eats them. He then tests his blood sugar and it is exactly the same as the rice, bread and potatoes that were not put in the fridge.
@@sidecarmisanthrope5927if possible please post the link to that video
@@sidecarmisanthrope5927 I just now watched Serious Keto on his 4th vid of trying these cold/freeze methods & he came up with it being bunk - that no matter what he does, there's a spike. HOWEVER, intake of fat with it blunts the spikes. So fats seems to be what works best over cold.
@@1Waarheid But that is the subject of this video.
@@sidecarmisanthrope5927
Well how can that be if you rinse the rice until the water is clear - it has removed some of the starch , cook it and rinse again and it’s still removing even more of the starch Vs. Just boiling the rice, strain and then eat.
I only listen to Dr Mandell he is so smart tells us all we need to know in 5 or 10 mins.😊
Also Dr. Berg! Fabulous!
Wow! My husband and I buy brown rice whenever we do eat rice. After hearing this, we can eat white rice following these helpful tips. Thank you. 4:46
I did this without even know I was doing this. I quit wheat because I found out I was allergic to wheat gluten. And I can’t cook for myself 3 times a day so I was cooking once and refrigerating the rest for next meal. In a year, all my joint inflammation is gone, gut health has improved tremendously, I’ve lost 5 kgs without even trying. I can vouch that everything you said is accurate. 🙏
This video must be meant for those having a healthy relationship with rice
Ha, good point suni.L
This is so important to know because with Major food shortages coming our way this will be eaten lots more ❤
True that
There is no food shortage coming.
However one does get what they have prepared for.

There will be no need for me to see you as I always have plenty. This will never change - I live in abundance of every good thing because I believe and trust in the God of over abundance. There is no lack in the kingdom 🥰👍.
Thank you doc ,this is what i usually do ,everytime i cooked my rice ,i always put it in the refrigerator , i have told my friends and relatives about this,they told me i am going to get sick eating fridge food,i have been doing this for years with no problem of sickness .
That is why when I eat the rice cakes cold, it did not bother my diabetes. Amazing. Thank you Doc.
I always keep my bread, rice and flours in my freezer. This lowers the glycemic process you’re speaking of also. It’s works the same for baked bread if you freeze it before you toast it. Happy Health!
i too do the bread cause we buy so much get 1 free lol,but didnt know about the rice,cant wait to share this
I always wash the rice in cold water, swish it with a fork and take the water away until it's starch free. It's far easier to digest this way.
Can you just keep the bread in the fridge, or do you need to freeze it??
@@VB-lc4xz Never put your baked goods in the fridge. The typical refrigeration temperatures actually encourage the staling process and degrade the quality faster. Strange but true - freezer is best.
@@annastinehammersdottir1290 Thanks!
This makes sense why Chinese people always make fried rice with day old , cold white rice
It's because freshly cooked rice is too soft and becomes mushy when stir frying.
That's not why but yes I guess you get that benefit too
It is actually because the texture works better. They eat plenty of fresh rice in other dishes.
The Japanese eat rice like crazy. Do they do this?
May God bless you for all that info. wonderful video. All people will benefit from it.
I was raised by my thai grandmother and eat white jasmine rice almost everyday. Now im 38m, jacked and ripped, 3-4 workouts a week with healthy nutritional lifestyle. Not sure if it will effect me much but i will def try it. Very interesting scientific analysis. Thank you.
In India, as per ancient practice that some follow till now, is not to use rice cooker to cook rice. Instead we boil with more water till it cooks and then drain the excess starch.
We cook rice like this in east europe😊.
Also in the USA. However, as a general rule, we do not chill or freeze it before eating.
Makes it mushy @@tatianadejanac8474
Thanks! I’ll try that. 😊
Even after cooking this way as maximum starch must be out so do we need to keep those rice in refrigerator for 12/24 hours ????
Wow! I generally put all my breads in the refrigerator post shopping until ready to use and did not realize I was cutting my starches down by accident.
I was recently diagnosed as diabetic and I am determined to reverse my numbers through diet. I've been focusing on all the great food I CAN eat as opposed to lamenting what I can't eat. I have been freezing my homemade bread as per your advice and NOW my list of foods i can eat has gleefully gotten larger with the info in this video! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I use a similar method to manage rheumatoid arthritis. Focusing on the stuff I CAN eat, (and there's plenty of great stuff) rather than worrying about the 'try to avoid' list. Have definitely noticed the difference. Cheers from Oz 🇦🇺
Sugar level 7 used to be normal but now be careful they will keep bringing it down and down so that we become serious thinkers about sugar levels only and get actually sick!
This is not true. There is research proving it is not true. One new study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition details a controlled study about this resistant starch theory. The study found that if you cooked starch and refrigerated it overnight that it changed nothing regarding the glycemic activity of the rice, and it didn't change the way it is absorbed/digested in the body. It changed nothing at all. Starch is starch. It is long sugar chains and will break down into sugar regardless of whether you refrigerate it.
Telling prediabetics and diabetics that this is a safe option is irresponsible and false.
What a great video! I am Asian. I have rice in my DNA!! Now I can go keto and still have a small amount of rice, yay!!!
I use Black 'Sweet' Rice, Red Cargo Rice, Wild Rice, and Brown Rice, not White. I make a pilaf, top it with roasted nuts, dried cherries, dried cranberries. I usually make a big batch so I have to refrigerate it and reheat it. I think too, if you cook rice and drain the water, you remove a lot of the starch. Furthermore, some Asian cultures make fermented rice such as Bengal, all of Southern India, and all the way to Australia. These are traditional health foods.
Thank you, Doc, for an excellent video!
I am diabetic and I love rice! Just can’t eat white rice. I eat brown and red rice and wild rice with flax chia and other grains. Really works for me, but now I know a better way to eat white rice! Thank you! I put your advice to work, like eating garlic!
I always refrigerate my rice, however I didn’t know that it lowers the starch content. Thank you Doctor Mendell!❤
r u simply refregerate or freeze it ?
Same, even raw.
It keeps the moths away.
Had to do the same to keep wheat weewils away from flour.
But it's even more practical after cooking as it takes quite a bit of time to cool off which is annoying when you just want to eat something quick.
He said to cook it and then refrigerate it. Not buy it and put it into the fridge to store.
Watch it again and you'll see.
I'm Cuban. We eat rice with the majority of our meals. I love it! Thank you for this video. I'm diabetic so this is really good news. I dont have to deprive myself of rice or pasta anymore.
no carbs, no starch and no sweeteners heals the gut.... calories make no difference ua-cam.com/video/MtJB_mbNymQ/v-deo.htmlsi=7uk5-8gapgvtIvXl
You still need to deprive yourself. You Latin Americans eat way too much carbs. I am pre-diabetic at least. Age 58. Lifelong athlete. Any starch sends me in a spiral. The most effective strategy is 18 - 22 hour daily fasting, intense barbell+HIIT exercise, combined with radical decrease in net carbs to ~20g per day. Replace with more healthy fats but again control portions. Vegetable oils (including olive oil) are horrific for our health. If you must take fats from non-meats, then the avocado (which is a fruit) seems quite healthy. Avoid nearly all processed foods, as it is laden with HFCs, vegetable oils and other toxins. Even dairy is all messed up by pasteurization and homogenization, not like how we used to drink it delivered daily as raw milk in glass jars to our doorstep.
You're dead wrong about Olive oil..... EVOO and Avocado oils are the most healthiest oils we can use. Avoid all others
@@Anonymint-vj7bt I agree with most of this. However, olive oil isn’t horrific for our health at all. The statistics on olive oil are great. Especially if you don’t heat it. Sprankle it every day on your salad or vegetables and it will contribute to your health!
@@WilliamEMorgan Haha, just posted my comment and then saw yours. Guy gave a lot of good information but was indeed deadly wrong about olive oil.
I've been unintentionally doing this for years. I meal prep 5 days worth of my own taco bowls each week and have for many years. Thanks for the info!
