First: Millet is rich in dietary fiber, but there is little rice flour.

In fact, the rice flour here refers to some flour and rice, including rice, noodles and steamed bread, etc. The dietary fiber content in these foods is relatively small, so after entering the body, the digestion speed of rice flour in the intestine will also change, so all starch will be converted into glucose in a short time. That is to say, it will cause great changes in blood sugar in a short time, which is very unfriendly to diabetics.

However, millet belongs to coarse grains. The biggest feature of coarse grains is that the content of dietary fiber is very rich. Dietary fiber can promote intestinal peristalsis, but this substance can't be digested and absorbed by intestinal tract quickly. So after eating millet, the absorption rate of intestinal tract for millet will slow down. Therefore, the blood sugar level will not fluctuate greatly in a short time.

In this process of slow digestion, the starch in millet will be slowly digested, even if the blood sugar will change, but because the digestion time is lengthened, it will not cause the blood sugar to rise rapidly, which is a dangerous behavior, so eating millet will be more friendly to diabetics.

Second: The starch content of millet is better.

Starch is actually an element that is unfriendly to diabetics. Starch is actually no different from sugar, because it will be converted into glucose after entering the body. The finer the rice flour, the higher the starch content, so diabetics are often advised to choose coarse grains and coarse grains with less starch content.

Although the starch content of millet is relatively small, it is not to say that there is no such thing, so eating too much millet will still lead to an increase in blood sugar. So no matter what kind of staple food it is, we must control the quantity. Xiaomi can eat a little more, but the fine rice flour should be more strictly controlled, and eating too much will also have great blood sugar pressure.
