Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Plain Rice
Metabolic Effect: Because it has a high glycemic index, it can raise blood sugar levels rapidly. Its fiber content is low, so the duration of satiety may be short.
Consumption Recommendation: Consuming it with chicken or vegetables can help balance blood sugar.
Things to Consider: A serving of rice can contain about 1-2 slices of bread worth of carbohydrates.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from a serving of rice, you may need to take a moderate-paced walk for about 20-25 minutes.
