About A half cup of white rice
A half cup of white rice is a staple ingredient with roots in Asian, Latin American, and Middle Eastern cuisines, valued for its versatility and mild flavor. It contains approximately 103 calories, 22 grams of carbohydrates, and minimal fat and protein. White rice is processed to remove the bran and germ, resulting in a softer texture and longer shelf life compared to brown rice. While it provides quick energy due to its carbohydrate content, it is less nutrient-dense, lacking fiber, vitamins, and minerals found in whole grains. Despite this, it can be a suitable option when paired with nutrient-rich toppings or used in balanced meals. Easily digestible, white rice is often recommended for sensitive stomachs or during recovery periods. For those seeking a healthier alternative to white rice, considering whole grains, such as quinoa or brown rice, may help boost dietary fiber and overall nutrient content.
