About Half cup brown rice
Half a cup of brown rice is a nutritious and versatile grain originating from Asia, where rice has been a staple food for centuries. Unlike white rice, brown rice retains its bran and germ layers, making it a whole grain rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus, and B vitamins. This unrefined grain has a slightly nutty flavor and chewy texture, making it a popular choice in health-focused cuisines worldwide. With approximately 108 calories, 22 grams of carbohydrates, and 1 gram of fat per serving, brown rice provides steady energy and supports digestive health. Its low glycemic index makes it ideal for maintaining blood sugar levels. However, brown rice contains trace amounts of arsenic, so it’s best consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Pair it with lean proteins and colorful vegetables for a complete, nutrient-packed meal.
