Low GI Diabetic Friendly Rice

Had I known about this rice 35 years ago I would have invested in it then. But better late than never. There is history of diabetes in my family and the regular consumption of rice stems from my Southeast Asian background. The COVID-19 pandemic served as a reminding catalyst that personal prime health and well-being should be a top priority. I have advocated for clean eating for over 35 years and shuddered to think that I had to give up rice to reach my fitness goals. It was in recent months that I came across this rice, which I’m comfortable consuming and serving to my loved ones. I also love how fluffy it is. It is now part of my personal food pantry. I highly recommend this to those looking for a healthier rice alternative. It may be pricey but for health and wellness I personally believe that it is worth the investment.

This Organic brown basmati rice is just what we were looking for. Nice fragrance when cooking, good fresh basmati flavor and it is certified organic. Pricey but worth it!

I gave up rice, potatoes and pasta over 2 years ago. From my time in Hawaii and all of my life, rice was my staple. I was told I could not eat it due to my pre diabetic condition. This rice serves all of my purposes! I eat it as it is, and, I have made Spanish rice with it. An excellent product! It definitely fixes my rice craving!

Arroz muy delicioso

Nope, no. The rice: after 6 washing’s this rice still had a strong smell and taste of dirt. The growers must love their soil because a whole lot of it seems to have shipped with the rice. Even after the cooking this smell is noticeable. The bag: super fancy, but the usefulness as it is being praised in their description: not at all. The zipper doesn’t work, it is impossible to really scoop the contents out of the bag because the opening is not big enough, and it is impossible to pour all the rice out of the bag because of how it is constructed. The price: considering the quality of the rice alone the price is not right, even when taking the low costs in consideration. 1 star for the looks of the bag.

Best rice I've ever purchased. Rinse it and it cooks into beautiful individual grains. Not sticky. Rice cooker helps. Of course a rice cooker always does better. If you eat rice frequently stop fooling around and learn to cook rice in your neglected Instapot or get yourself a rice cooker. Low GI rice is just less polished/processed rice. Whole wheat rice has the full brown rice coating. These rice has a trace of the coating, supposedly digests slower.

While the taste is good, it had no significant difference in my glucose compared to other brands (cgm). I like that it's certified organic though.
