Rice is predominantly carbohydrate.For metabolyzing carbohydrates you need insulin which is in short suppy among diabetics or they may also suffer from insulin resistance,leading to high levels of glucose in the blood.So,reduce rice intake to the extent possible and consume in small quantities with longer intervals.You can eat more boiled mixed sprouts,vetgeables,greens.mushrooms,fish,chicken,eggs etc.which do not demand insulin but give you high quality nutrients,minerals,vitamins,fiber etc.
