As we all know, brown rice is inherently a golden food that works very well in supporting weight loss, promoting heart health, preventing cancer,... However, many people wonder whether brown rice after drying still has inherent nutrients and whether the use of dried brown rice nuggets is as harmful to health as fast food products? So today, let's find the answers to these questions with Mailey!
1. Nutritional ingredients
Perhaps you do not know that brown rice is the white rice we still eat every day, but white rice through the milling process has lost the outer rice bran film. Although this layer of rice bran only accounts for 7-15% of the weight, it contains up to 70% of the nutritional value of the rice grain.
Therefore, it can be seen that in terms of nutritional value, brown rice will provide more vitamins and minerals for the body than white rice.
In terms of fiber content, in 100g of white rice contains 0.6g and 100g of brown rice contains 3.5g. Daily fiber requirements for adult men and women are 38g and 25g. With such a superior fiber content, brown rice is very important in fighting constipation and controlling blood sugar for people with diabetes.
Specifically, the nutrient content is as follows:
100g rice 100g brown rice
Magie 24mg 143mg
Zinc 0.42mg 2.02mg
Kali 0mg 223mg
Canxi 3mg 23mg
Photpho 37mg 333mg
Vitamin B6 0.05mg 0.509mg
Vitamin B3 1.835mg 5.091mg
Vitamin B1 0.167mg 0.401mg
Fiber 0.6g 3.5g
1. Is it good to eat a lot of dried brown rice?

Therefore, using dried brown rice or brown rice has the same effect.
