alt Hacker News> very low sugar, more veggies
Wearing a glucose monitor for a while showed me that some veggies are worse than the usual suspects: 80g of rice with fish gave me a glucose spike higher than a Nutella sandwich. Other veggies, like beans, surprisingly low.

Rice is not a veggie ffs, its not very healthy even in its best forms. Just a lot of simpler sugars. You are not doing anything healthy by eating it, and that glucose spike is very much expected just like from other junk food.

Rice is not a vegetable. It's not even the whole seed of a vegetable. It's just the starchy part.
Try eating wholegrain rice.
