Unlike most varieties of white rice with a high glycemic index, basmati rice ranks much lower, typically between 50 and 58. This places it in the low to medium GI category, making it a healthier choice for supporting balanced blood sugar levels.
Basmati rice is naturally gluten-free and low in fat. It provides all eight essential amino acids, is rich in folic acid, very low in sodium, and completely cholesterol-free.
Non-Basmati rice includes all rice varieties other than Basmati, with over 10,000 types grown worldwide.
