People with diabetes can consume vermicelli and rice noodles, but they should do so in moderation. In fact, individuals with diabetes can eat many types of foods—there are no absolute dietary restrictions. What matters most is portion control. For example, if one consumes fruit or other foods high in sugar and calories, they should appropriately reduce intake of other foods to ensure that their total daily caloric intake remains within the recommended range.
