    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q. Are Rice Noodles Healthy For You?

    Ans. Rice noodles are perfectly healthy and make a great addition to your diet. Still, they’re lower in fiber than other noodles, such as whole wheat noodles or spaghetti squash noodles. Studies suggest that eating more fiber supports beneficial gut bacteria, good digestion, and blood sugar management

    Q, Are Rice Noodles Healthier Than Rice?

    Ans. Rice contained a lower sugar content which means that after eating the fried rice the blood sugar will not spike as quickly as the noodles (fat secret). Based on these findings, I would say the noodles and rice have their own minor advantages and disadvantages, but neither is an outright healthier choice.
