Goodness of Whole grain rice

We have always heard that we should have wholesome food. For us to get the wholeness of the food we consume, we should move from having white rice, white bread, etc to whole grain food like brown or red rice, bread, etc.
The whole grain food are rich in fibers that can reduce the cholesterol and blood glucose. Whole grain rice is better than bread or pasta, according to a nutritionist.



Bring more whole grain into your diet with the following food.

1.       Use whole grain rice instead of white rice for dosa, idli, appams, puddings, etc.
2.       Red rice, and even black rice is very good for health. Try the rice scented brown basmati rice which has more protein.
3.       Some people will tell you that it takes 45 minutes to cook the brown rice, and it is unnecessary waste of energy. Don’t let that deter you. Cook the brown rice for 8 minutes after the first whistle, and keep the lid of the pressure cooker closed for 15 minutes and let the pressure subside. You can spend little more time in cooking the brown rice for the healthier you.
