grains
Rice noodles spike blood sugar rapidly due to their refined carbohydrate content, triggering mild inflammatory responses without the fiber present in whole grains.
Refined Rice Flour
+0.6
High glycemic index causes rapid blood sugar elevation and insulin response, promoting inflammatory pathways.
Tapioca Starch
+0.1
Additional simple carbohydrate that contributes to glycemic load without nutritional benefit.
Minimal Fiber
-0.2
Lack of fiber means no buffering effect on glucose absorption or gut health benefits.
This score is ingredient-based and weighted by DII-inspired evidence. Foods with added sugar, refined starches, and heavy processing trend higher; foods with fiber, omega-3, and polyphenols trend lower.
Low FODMAP and gluten-free, making them suitable for those with IBS or celiac disease despite the glycemic impact.
