Question 1

Can you eat cooked rice noodles if you have diabetes?

Accepted Answer

It depends. 1 cup cooked rice noodles has about 190 kcal, 42.26 g carbs, 40.5 g net carbs, 1.76 g fiber, and 3.15 g protein, so it is a fairly carb-heavy food. Since carbohydrates are broken down into glucose, which may result in a blood sugar rise, cooked rice noodles may not be suitable for people with diabetes.

Question 2

Are cooked rice noodles gluten-free?

Accepted Answer

Cooked rice noodles can be gluten-free, but it depends on the ingredients and cross-contact. Rice is naturally gluten-free, but some cooked rice noodle products may include wheat or be processed in shared facilities. If you are looking for strictly gluten-free rice noodles, check the label for a "gluten free label", or allergen listing (take note that a lack of allergen labeling does not mean that the product is gluten free), or ingredients (wheat, barley, rye, malt, brewer’s yeast, oats) unless specifically labeled gluten-free.

Question 3

Which is better for diabetics, cooked rice noodles, or egg noodles?

Accepted Answer

Egg noodles may be slightly better than cooked rice noodles. Per cup, cooked rice noodles have 42.26 g carbs, 1.76 g fiber, 3.15 g protein, while cooked egg noodles have 40.26 g carbs, 1.92 g fiber, 7.26 g protein, so egg noodles may have a small advantage from slightly lower carbs and higher protein.

Question 4

Do cooked rice noodles raise blood sugar?

Accepted Answer

A 1 cup serving has 42.26 g total carbs and only 1.76 g fiber, so it may raise glucose more than higher fiber carb choices.

Question 5

Can cooked rice noodles cause bloating?

Accepted Answer

It may, but it depends on the person. Rice noodles themselves are relatively simple, but bloating may still happen from large portions, fast eating, sauces, or other ingredients. Common gas symptoms and abdominal discomfort can happen when undigested carbohydrates are fermented in the gut. If you notice bloating often when eating rice noodles, it may help to reduce portion size or consult a healthcare professional on how to get rid of bloating.
