Regarding the misconception about rice being prohibited for diabetes, it's essential to understand that while controlling carbohydrate intake is a part of diabetes management, the complete prohibition of rice or any specific food item is not a universal rule. The key lies in moderation and portion control. Rice, like other carbohydrates, affects blood sugar levels, but portion size, type of rice, and overall diet play crucial roles. Opting for whole grains, controlling portion sizes, and pairing rice with fibre-rich foods and proteins can help manage blood sugar levels effectively.
