Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Basmati Rice

Metabolic Effect: Basmati rice has a lower glycemic index compared to other rice types, meaning it raises blood sugar more slowly. However, it is still important to pay attention to portion control.
Consumption Recommendation: Consuming basmati rice with vegetables and protein sources helps balance blood sugar. It should be preferred as part of a balanced meal, without overdoing it.
Things to Consider: A serving of basmati rice should be about a handful. Excessive consumption can lead to weight gain.
