I think billions of Asians, who've eaten rice since they discovered it's edible, would prove this is BS. Not saying rice is the healthiest food out there, but its certainly not as bad as the meme suggests.
Asians are the most impacted with gestational diabetes. Native American and Pacific Islanders are also in the top 3. We eat rice 3 times a day. During pregnancy your body will make less insulin so Asians should avoid sticky white rice or substitute brown rice whenever possible. Microwave rice is really high both in the glycemic index as well as glycemic load. https://www.natureword.com/glycemic-index-of-rice/
Plus, Americans especially are prone to having more than a reasonable serving size (of everything) I imagine that 1/2 - 1 cup rice is plenty, depending on size of person? I have seen people who are eating a lot more than that a meal. Idk?

Yeah I was thinking of those Japanese villages where people regularly live to 100 eating rice and fish
The centenarians in Japan eat a lot sweet potatoes and yams actually.
