# I’m diabetic. Can I order the noodles?

Yes, the [noodle bowls](https://splendidspoon.com/introducing/noodles/) are appropriate for diabetic diets. The noodle bowls use rice noodles, which are relatively low on the glycemic index\[1], meaning that they do not cause quick increases in blood sugar. Each bowl contains approximately 24 to 29 grams of carbohydrates or about two carbohydrate equivalents. Whether you count carbohydrates to control your diabetes or use medication for blood glucose control, it’s best to be mindful of the portion size and frequency of carbohydrates that you consume. In addition to carbohydrates, Splendid Spoon Noodle Bowls contain protein, healthy fats, and fiber, making them an excellent, balanced choice for those with diabetes.
