About A bit of rice

Rice, a versatile grain with origins tracing back to Asia, is a global staple in many cuisines, including Indian, Chinese, Japanese, and Mediterranean. Available in various types like white, brown, basmati, and jasmine, rice is primarily composed of carbohydrates, making it an excellent energy source. Brown rice retains its bran and germ, offering higher fiber, vitamins, and minerals compared to white rice, which is more refined. Rich in B vitamins and manganese, rice supports metabolic health and cellular function. While generally low in fat and sodium, its nutritional profile can vary depending on preparation methods and pairings. For healthier options, opt for whole grain varieties and watch added salt, fats, or sauces. A balanced portion of rice complements proteins and vegetables, making it a key component in many nutritious meals worldwide.
