In a recent article by our editorial team, we saw the ranking of the most consumed foods on earth: rice, pasta and pizza. First place for rice, thanks also to the mass consumption of oriental populations. Rice, which, in the variant of the risotto, is however also very popular in Italy, especially in the North, rich in crops. And, of top quality rice. Eating rice is good for you, but eating too much of this common food would cause heart and figure problems, according to a British study. Let’s see together with our Experts what emerges from this interesting publication of the University of Manchester.
Important data
Eating too much of this common food would cause heart and figure problems. At least according to data from the prestigious British university. The numbers tell us that every day on earth, 3 billion people eat rice. Really impressive figures, which make this food necessarily the most consumed in the world. Also, because in almost all oriental food cultures and traditions, rice is the main food. But, according to British researchers, eating too much of this common element would cause heart and bloodline problems due to the levels of inorganic arsenic contained. To reach this important conclusion, thousands of British subjects, particularly rice lovers, were analyzed.
The correlation between laughter and heart
According to it studioone in four English people who are a regular consumer of rice showed a correlation between food intake and heart disease. In addition to the predisposition to gain more weight, compared to those who instead take rice without abusing it. These symptoms are caused by the inorganic arsenic of rice, which can expose us in the long run to the risks mentioned above. We are especially careful not to make our children eat too much rice. However, we must also take into account that the study is not finished, but is continuing its process, given the complexity and importance of the subject.
What does it mean to take risks
To clarify what British scholars mean by the risk of cardiovascular disease and criticality of overweight, let’s try to understand how much rice we can actually eat. The clarification is in fact all the more necessary in order not to create alarmism. The British experimentation, however aimed at people of different ages, social groups and eating habits, focused on daily intake. In essence, eating too much of this common element would cause heart and figure problems when taken every day. And in important quantities. Fans of risotto, or summer rice salads, should therefore breathe a sigh of relief: to abuse is bad, to taste is not. As always, the advice of moderation is valid. Also and above all at the table. And, again on the subject of food and safety, we recommend reading below.
