I have had gastroparesis (GP) for years and am prediabetic.

I recently learned that you can take cooked carbs (rice, pasta) and put them in the fridge for 24 hours, then reheat to eat. This apparently makes them much more diabetic friendly.

My concern is that these starches now take longer to digest.

Is this something I should avoid, as someone with GP?

Hi, @heidimarie123, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. You'll notice I moved your post here to talk to others who've mentioned gastroparesis and diet:

-Gastroparesis diet? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/gastroparisis-diet/

@jlharsh @shaylyn4 @sori and others may have some thoughts on putting cooked carbs in the fridge for a day and then reheating (for diabetes purposes) and whether it's best to avoid this practice or not as someone with gastroparesis, if this process makes these starches take longer to digest.
