The Dish that Slashes your Diabetes Risk
Make a stir-fry with brown rice and you’ll be serving up some diabetes prevention. Researchers in Rome found that a veggie-packed diet lowered insulin resistance-a precursor to diabetes-by 25 percent.
And a study from the Harvard School of Public Health showed that people who ate a cup or more of brown rice a week had an 11 percent lower chance of developing diabetes than those who ate less. “The antioxidants in whole grains and vegetables prevent cell damage,” says SAPE contributing editor Cynthia Sass, R.D., “which can hinder your body’s ability to process insulin.”
Amy’s tip: Try Amy’s Brown Rice and Veggies bowl or Black eyed Pea bowl for a quick and tasty brown rice and veggie combo.

Your Comments
I just want to THANK YOU for all of your Gluten free foods -- it is so nice to have the guess work taken out of what I might or might not be able to eat -- if there's a choice, I always choose your product. I was diagnosed celiac 2 years ago and have been on the gluten-free diet since. I just had my antibodies retested and they are now at normal levels. I have to give part of the credit to you -- and thank you for giving me so many clearly labeled choices. PS I love your rice crust pizza. Thanks again, keep up the great work.
Sincerely,
Cynthia Cory,
