One of the questions I get most as a Nutritionist is whether rice is good for you or not, and if you should choose brown rice or white rice.
Over 90% of people get this answer wrong, and they've been told by misinformed dieticians and doctors that brown rice is healthier because it has more "fiber".
However, this is harmful advice, and brown rice is NOT healthier than white rice!
Let me explain why...
Brown rice contains the hull of the rice plant, and that hull does contain some fiber, but it also contains some significant toxins such as lectins that can harm your gut lining, cause brain fog, and trigger autoimmune reactions in some people.
I've had dozens of my friends and clients that saw dramatically improved digestion, more energy and clarity of mind, and autoimmune skin conditions that went away once they switched from brown rice to white rice.
Brown rice also contains significant amounts of toxic arsenic since the arsenic is in the hull, and not the white starch part of the rice. This is yet another reason that white rice is a lot better choice in my opinion.
A word of warning on white rice: While white rice is mostly just starch, and therefore can be used as a great source of muscle glycogen by healthy people that exercise frequently and intensely, I would urge caution for people with Diabetes to be careful with the quantity of white rice they are consuming and monitor their blood sugar carefully.
Now that we've talked about why we should avoid brown rice if we want to avoid many of these health issues, let's look below at a unique way to HEAL your gut, get rid of gas and bloating, increase energy, and lose fat easier...
Broccoli vs Kale vs Green Beans... (the #1 WORST veggie for your gut & energy)

This veggie can damage your gut and disrupt your hormones... It contains a toxin that damages the lining of your intestines, causes bloating, embarrassing gas, and a bulging belly.
