Hello, Chappatis and rice are same when it comes to the calorie content. White Rice is safe for the consumption even I n are of type 2 diabetes, but brown, red or wild rice are preferred due to their high fiber content, which helps stabilising blood sugar levels. If white rice consumed, club it with loads of fibrous vegetables which will avoid insulin spike.

Hello Sir, I would advise if can substitute atleast one meal with chapatis/roti/phulka etc instead of consuming rice both the times. You can even take millets like Ragi, bajra, oats , quinoa etc. Use whole grains. These all release glucose in your blood slowly rather than the quick release of glucose seen as with white rice. If you unable to change your dietary habits away from rice, try if you can take brown rice/red rice/wild rice instead of white rice. Take plenty of vegetables, atleast half of your plate should be of vegetables. Avoid potatoes, colocasia, yam. You can take carrots, green peas, sweet corn, beet root 1-2 times/week,Rest all vegetables including leafy vegetables are perfectly fine to be taken everyday. Hope this has helped you Thank you
