Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Rice Flour

  • Metabolic Effect: Rice flour is a suitable alternative for celiac patients and those with gluten intolerance because it does not contain gluten. However, since it is made from white rice, it has a high glycemic index and can raise blood sugar quickly.
  • Consumption Recommendation: In recipes made with rice flour, it can be mixed with different flours (e.g., whole wheat flour or oat flour) to increase the fiber content. This helps to raise blood sugar more evenly.
  • Things to Consider: Rice flour is less nutritious than other flours. Therefore, vitamin and mineral supplementation may be required. It is also important to pay attention to portion control, as it can be high in calories.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from 100 grams of rice flour, you need to walk briskly for about 40 minutes. This helps maintain your daily energy balance.
