The Science:
Glycaemic index of single and mixed meal foods
Study: Investigated glycaemic responses of various foods and confirmed that white rice produces a strong and rapid blood glucose response, making it suitable as a reference carbohydrate in glycaemic index testing.
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2003

White rice is a rapidly digestible carbohydrate source, producing a strong glycaemic response. This directly supports the use of rice-based products like cream of rice as a fast-acting fuel source, particularly around training.
The influence of rice type and cooking on glycaemic index in healthy adults
Study: Human study examining how different rice types affect glycaemic response, confirming that rice-based carbohydrates significantly impact postprandial blood glucose depending on processing and structure.
Nutrients, 2024
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39796302/
Rice-based foods consistently influence rapid glucose availability, reinforcing their role as an efficient carbohydrate source for energy provision – aligning with the purpose of products like cream of rice for training fuel and recovery.
