BROWN RICE
Brown rice is a whole grain, and whole grains are a whole lot healthier than the white version which has been stripped of the outer shells and therefore stripped of most of the nutrients. In terms of diabetes, choosing brown rice over white rice reduces glucose levels “at every point of the curve” says diabetes specialist, Dr. V. Mohan, MD, FRCP PhD, DSc, FNASc. We don’t know what all those acronyms stand for, but he must be pretty smart. He has been working in the field of diabetes for 30 years and is Chairman and Chief of Dr. Mohan’s Diabetology at Diabetes Specialities Centre in India, an organization that is named for him.
