Health Goals Suitability

Diabetes

Moderate glycemic index (GI: 56). Adding a fiber-rich side dish can help moderate the blood sugar response.

PCOS

Moderate-to-high GI (56) can spike insulin — Women with PCOS should pair this with fiber-rich vegetables and a protein source to improve the insulin response.
