Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
What rice best for diet? The following description will provide an illustration that rice is not an ‘evil’ food and can still be supportive weight loss.
Indonesian people are used to making rice the main source of carbohydrates. Rice or rice is automatically always included in the daily diet.
However, rice is often criticized because it is thought to make you gain weight. In fact, rice is an important source of carbohydrates for the body.
“This is not a food that we should fear or consider a villain,” said clinical dietitian Ellis Hunnes, quoting from Men’s Health.
The best rice for dieting
All rice contains carbohydrates. But actually, different types of rice have different nutritional content. Rice which is rich in nutrients is included in the best rice for diets.
Here is some rice that can be consumed to lose weight.
1. Black rice
Black rice (black rice) is the best rice variety for diet and overall health.
Black rice contains the highest antioxidants among all types of rice. This antioxidant function is carried out by the anthocyanin content which is a strong anti-inflammatory agent.
Apart from carbohydrates, black rice also contains protein and fiber. Both help you feel full longer.
2. Brown rice

Like black rice, red rice contains flavonoid antioxidants, including anthocyanin, apigenin, myricetin and quercetin.
Quoting from Healthlineresearch shows that brown rice has much greater potential to fight free radicals and contains higher levels of flavonoid antioxidants than black rice.
3. Brown rice
Many people consider brown rice to be healthier than white rice. This assumption is not wrong because brown rice does not go through much processing so its nutrients are not reduced much.
“Brown rice brings a lot of nutrition, especially because it’s a whole grain. It’s high in fiber, B vitamins, zinc, and magnesium,” says dietitian Courtney D’Angelo, citing Eat This Not That.
Fiber itself is beneficial for weight loss by providing a feeling of fullness for longer. Fiber can also help stabilize blood sugar.
These are some of the best rice for a diet that you can try.
