Is that because of rice, though?


Not sure. We’re also vegetarian in my family.


Yeah, vegetarian indians have heart disease, high cholesterol, and diabetes. It's all of the starches.


Heavy cream based diet


and all the oil used in cooking.


Actually science says Indians have a genetic predisposition to diabetes and greater insulin resistance than other groups such as Europeans.



+1 Not all Indians have heavy cream based diet, and there's certainly many Europeans who eat a lot of breads/carbs/sweets. It's genetics.

WE mix in half and half or slightly less. I do it in the rice cooker with no special settings. works great.

Try cooking it in coconut oil to lower the insulin response:
