Even before Brown rice was marketed across globe as superfood our ancestors had them in their staple diet. So how is brown rice a healthier choice than white rice and why brown rice is considered healthy. Brown rice is a whole grain rice with the inedible outer hull removed and keeping the bran layer and germ intact and in the case of the white rice the hull,bran and germ is removed.
Brown rice is loaded with minerals and the fibre content is good which makes brown rice a healthier choice than white rice. I have combined brown rice, rice flakes and coconut milk to prepare a healthy dessert.
