It’s fish and rice. You’re a nut.


Take your blood sugar after eating the sugary rice. You’ll be horrified.


I make sushi rice at home - you are literally talking about 1 tablespoon of sugar for 2 cups of rice. I'd hardly call that sugary rice.


LOL. You actually said this?


Np. Two cups of rice would make a lot of sushi. So you'd be getting, what, a teaspoon of sugar if you ate a couple rolls? Big deal.


each sushi piece packs a lot of rice. how ignorant.


y'all are too much. Each piece of sushi packs a bite of rice.

If you can't handle 10 bites of rice, you might be diabetic and should get your A1C tested


anyone can eat 10 pieces, doesn't mean you should. ask your scale.


You can’t have 10 bites of sushi without being overweight? I’m so sad for you have you seen a doctor? It sounds like a problem with your metabolism?

A normal person would eat about 10 or so pieces of sushi, maybe more. Throw in the salt from the soy sauce, and you can bet sushi can be unhealthy.

I always feel bloated after I eat sushi.


Right, like I said...a couple rolls which is 10-16 pieces of sushi. Would be maybe a teaspoon of sugar. Even the amount of carbs from rice in two rolls isn't crazy.

We need sodium. Unless you have high blood pressure there's no need to avoid sodium, we get the vast amount of sodium in our diet from processed foods, dipping sushi in soy sauce is not an issue.

You folks have really strange ideas of what makes something healthy or not.

? we need sodium, but not *that* much sodium. It's not like you are only eating that one bowl of miso soup the entire day. You are eating other things with salt. And let's not forget the soy sauce.

Same for carbs.


Omg. That tiny cup of miso they give you is MAYBE 3/4 of a cup.

You dip the sushi in the soy sauce. At most you're getting a couple of tablespoons! I've never used the whole tiny tray that you fill and dip into. Have you?

Is sushi salty, and is it a somewhat carb heavy meal? Yes. But that doesn't make it automatically unhealthy.

It's unhealthy for most people. Some people can deal with high salt and carb content than others, but most cannot. Hence the obesity and high blood pressure epidemic.

Miso paste has a lot of salt. Read the nutrition facts. Eating it once a week may not be a big deal, but that wasn't the question.

The question is "Is sushi healthy" - in and of itself, the fish is healthy but most people don't eat just the fish. They eat it with the rice (high carbs) and soy sauce (high salt). Throw in miso soup that's tasty, and there's even more salt.

My family loves sushi, but it's not the healthiest of meals unless you only eat the fish with very little rice and soy sauce (we use the less salty one but it's still has a fairly high salt content).


Obesity is not caused by carbs or rice, it is caused by the overconsumption of calories. Asian cultures live off rice and soy sauce and are some of the thinnest and healthiest people. Heck half the world lives off of rice. American's are obese because they create hyper palatable processed foods full of fat and sugar which leads to overconsumption. The reason people have too much sodium is also from all the processed food that is also full of sodium.

any why is this a concern? Unless you are a diabetic or have an issue with producing insulin there is nothing at all wrong with, OMG, blood sugar spikes. It is literally how our bodies are meant to function.

And as a PP mentioned, there is a very small amount of sugar in the rice

Okay. Well I reject the premise that the rice and salt in a few rolls of sushi are unhealthy, so I guess we can agree to disagree!

each sushi piece packs a lot of rice. how ignorant.


y'all are too much. Each piece of sushi packs a bite of rice.

If you can't handle 10 bites of rice, you might be diabetic and should get your A1C tested


Right???

Shrug. Okay. I eat sushi at least twice a week and have excellent health markers and I'm a normal weight. Guess it's healthy for me and my body

This is why we always sub brown rice for white when we can - not all places do it, but it makes a difference.


yes, much better if you have that option
