Description
Brown Rice is a whole grain rice which is a healthier choice comparing to white rice, the reason for that is because the brown rice has the side hulls and the brans.
The side hulls and brans provide “natural wholeness” to the grain and are rich in proteins, thiamine, calcium, magnesium, fibre, and potassium. For those trying to lose weight or those suffering from diabetes, brown rice can prove a healthful staple given its low glycemic rating which helps reduce insulin spikes.
