If I have diabetes, should I switch to brown rice?

My whole family takes ponni rice, which is lower in GI compared to white rice and is more recommended to diabetes patients as a white rice substitute. Might still want to consult a dietitian on this. Diabetic patients should cut down on carbohydrates, or at the very least, choose low GI foods over high GI. This will help reduce the fluctuation of blood sugar after meals/snacks.
