My grandparents ate white rice all their life and they lived long without any diseases. Eat less processed/junk/fastfood/canned foods and you can still enjoy your white rice.
Amen on that.
Combine high GI white rice with low GI food. Problem solved. Few eat white rice in isolation.
White rice and unrefined oil is fine but 2 generations later, today we have refined oils with refined rice. Refined carbs combining with refined oil is extremely detrimental to the heart and the body.
Delilah, no offense but that is a poor argument.. I can say the same thing, my great grand father lived to 92 and smoked.. Reality, he may have lived to 110 if he didn't smoke. What science shows us, you are less likely to get stomach cancer on the whole grain rice than the white rice. Science shows us that white rice has a negative effect on your health while brown rice has a positive effect. The choice is yours.
Indeed. Just eat in moderation and exercise regularly.
I'm from Philippines, I experienced eating brown rice 12 years ago in Iligan city. Fast forward, and we are mixing brown, black and white rice in our daily meal. Although the brown and black are a bit expensive, the health benefits outweigh the expense. At 1st its hard to switch from white to mix rice, but as time goes by my family enjoyed eating mix rice.
Hi Anthony I’ll take your advice.....
Magkano po ba ang brown rice?
@@kooliit448 55/ kilo
I like wild rice blend
Recently I been eating brown rice but I like your idea mixing different types.
Soak your brown/black rice overnight is the key to decent rice texture.
Thanks this was helpful
Black rice is softer than brown rice. So, black rice no need to soak
Yes
cooking the rice in a pressure cooker like the Instant Pot makes a great texture too and saves time.
@David Watkins I thought parboiled was good for those with diabetes
There is a major concern with whole grain rice that they didn't mention. That issue is the bran of the rice can absorb the arsenic that is present in the water in many asian countries. The arsenic is in its toxic inorganic form and can be detrimental to the health of the people (mainly those who aren't actively consuming the contaminated water, those living in those areas have bigger issues with arsenic from water than rice).
Also, its crazy that brown rice is more expensive than white rice. Brown rice is the less processed form of rice, meaning that the production time and cost of it should be lower than that of white rice. But, the healthly foods industry is artificially inflating the cost of the rice because the smaller amount of people who'd buy it are willing to pay more for "more healthy" food.
That's an interesting perspective 🤔,never really thought about it that way
Not sure that's accurate... Suspect the reason is that they can sell the bran etc separately for more
Actualy rice with bran is easier to spoil and has less shelf life, meaning it is more expensive to keep on the shelf.
@@maddog8807 yea that's the thing. shelf life is important. demand is more for brown rice. prices are high. although brown rice doesnt need processing. still the overall cost is too significant.
Re arsenic, true but it can be greatly reduced. I read a study where scientists trialed various ways to reduce the arsenic in rice while retaining as much of its nutrients as possible. They found it most effective to rinse the rice thoroughly, boil it for 5 minutes, dump that water, and then cook normally. For added assurance since I’m gluten free and eat brown rice regularly, I also soak overnight and dump that water (after the rinsing step, before the boiling step).
I love that steering wheel design. As a young boy i used to ride in a MORRIS Oxford that had one with a similar design. Bring back the old design!
We now know that those old car designs, especially the steering wheel, were highly legal. After learning from crash testing, we know strong/heavy/metal design is bad for surviving a crash. Plastics that break apart on impact become a cushion, and combined with air bags, save you. The old steeling wheel posts would destroy the lungs in a crash and collapse the rib cage into the heart, then you would slide over the steering wheel over the dash and into the windshield, which would snap your neck as it twisted backwards and your full body weight is placed on it.
Great program. Thanks for researching!
At the grand scale of things rice is just an element to take into account but there are many other things that are much worse. I cut sugary drinks and don't even put sugar on my coffee. I also work out and walk everywhere. Still, this video was very informative, especially the lab results. I think what most people should take away from this it's not that they are saying rice is bad but to know the are differences and what fiber does to a diet. A healthy sustainable diet isn't to cut things out completely or feel hungry and miserable but to be able to make smart choices.
Good video. One thing they did not talk about is shelf life. White rice has a longer shelf life than brown rice.
that nutritionist's accent is switching between American, British and Aussie accent while describing different types of rice grain lol
I love brown rice with wild rice and it's really the best staple food ever. I tried purple, red and red berry rice, it's okay but the best is brown rice with wild rice. To me it depends on your taste. ASIANS LOVE RICE.
yeah, Asians love rice. meal is incomplete without it❤️
Where do you get wild rice? I can't seem to find it. Where is it available in Singapore?
ALEC 6804, IT'S IN EVERY GROCERY STORES CALIFORNIA.
Wild rice blend is my favorite too.
Great video! I consume a lot of "Nishiki Seven Grains Mix" (medium grain brown rice, brown sweet rice, red rice, buckwheat groats, quinoa, black rice, millet). I cook it in my rice cooker, set to "brown rice", comes out GREAT, every time. BUT...I am addicted to jook, and the only rice I have gotten to work is, guess what, white rice. (However, the last jook I made--yesterday morning!--I added some of the seven grains mix that I had prepared the night before...not too much, just enough to have a different color and texture; it worked out great. BUT...I think I could eat an iPhone if it were in jook, especially with enough spring onions...)
It must be great, to have a job where you get paid to eat! :D Thanks again.
This video is amazing, first one I watch from this channel, I'm subscribed!
If you eat fibrous food WITH white rice, you're getting the fiber you need with white rice. Do not eat white rice alone. Or do like the Korean's and use a grain mix that have other nations and black rice to make it a purple in colour.
My white rice is mixed with black and red rice, and sometimes purple rice.
exactly! rice is commonly paired with fiber-rich beans in many cultures and it makes a significant difference
I eat brown or black, few spoons of it, I feel full already. Thus preventing me from overeating and won't trigger overweight in me.
High fibre high protein white polished rice available now a days . Thanks to lattest scientific development
ruclips.net/video/mOMsAUFLvNk/видео.html
I like this show about the rice ! I tried tell my daughters not to eat white bread and white rice . But black rice . We are California and I do love black rice a lot !
Its not about what we eat only. Its also the way we live....both is important
Amazing Info! Thank you! For your excellent research a
I really love your videos - a great mix of information and humour. My problem with whole grain rice is the cooking time. I have a busy schedule and white rice is faster and easier to cook.
Thank you so much for sharing this video in this indept research and intuitive analysis of varities of rice. After watching this, I scratch my head. I feel no longer wanting to eat white rice because of high in G.I and not healthy. I grew up eating white rice 3 times daily as part of our diet because it is common and affordable and as part of asian tradition. Yes, white rice has more flavor and texture hands down moreso than those colored whole grain rice. But I am getting older not as active than I have been in my younger days that I can easily burn those sugar into energy. Managing weight is a challenge, always in check our sugar intake and other aspects of health. All the remaining days of my life my goal is to have a better, longer, more energy and healthy life together with my family. Again, thank you and more power to your channel.
This is the kind of videos that make RUclips great for home school. Will be showing the kids in 'class' tomorrow, and we'll cook the rices and try them. Thank you.
Just found your channel. Great video! But one issue not mentioned. Brown rice has one of the highest concentrations inorganic arsenic of any food.
I been eating white rice since birth. My great grandparent ate rice for the rest of their life without illness
Exactly my grandfather smoked cigar till 99 years 😂
Yeah mixing it with other grains is an easy way for the taste buds. Helps keeps the cost down too.
Black rice is good, cook it with garlic, salt and sesame oil on rice cooker, after soaking it first 1-3hrs before cooking. It taste like risotto. :) texture is great.
Red rice is good, cook it with garlic, salt and sesame oil on rice cooker, after soaking it first 1-3hrs before cooking. It taste like risotto. :) texture is great.
Sandy, Victoria, BC, Canada. Totally enjoyed this episode very informative. Loved the presenter. Please do more.
This is so informative. I love it.
Woww... such an informative video. I always used to think that brown rice is healthier than white rice because it has lesser calories, never thought about the concept of glycemic index. So there are quite different varieties of rice brown rice, white rice, black rice, red rice, riceberry rice.
I never give up my white rice cuz I mixed it with red and black rice, and sometimes purple rice.
Very informative. Thanks.
Viewer from Malaysia. Love these informative series from CNA. Keep it up!
I love short grain brown rice..but if I feel like having white rice, I choose basmati for its lower glycemic index...or I mix lentils in with the white rice which also ups the fiber.
great video! I love and thank you for make me become more healter
Really informative
I'm going to start eating black rice so I can feel like an emperor
HIMALAYAN BROWN RICE ARE ALSO MAJESTIC
so.. already 1 month.. good? is it delicious? how do you feel
This episode is very thorough
There is a way of increasing the resistant starch (which acts as a fiber) content of cooked rice, pasta and potatoes and that is to refrigerate it for 24h before consuming. Even if you reheat it, the resistant starch that has already been formed remains.
And how it helps ? Can I freeze it for longer time? Can I use it few days after took it out from the freezer?
Good to be informed about rice. I didn't know PM referred rice as sugar. The mixed grain nasi lemak might throw many ppl off, though I don't mind trying.
If you want a healthier life, convert as much of your energy intake from carbs to unrefined medium chain fats, not long chain. Not carbs and long chain fats.
If unpolished, less processing cost right? Why more expensive?
Cuz demand
Because healthier choices cost more, just for the name.like LV. In those days, brown rice was cheaper.😂
Because white rice is easier to preserve than brown rice. It's just like refined and unrefined oil. The longer the shelf life, the cheaper
The actual fact it is priced higher bcoz it has no demand. When demand is high it will be cheaper to get more sales. Brown rice scientifically is not healthier.
White rice is less expensive because farmer produce a lot and good harvest from it.
While brown rice can only give a few grain per plant and is not easy to grow them.
And the cost for fertilizer and insect spray just for them to strive is very expensive.
So that's why farmer like to plant white rice than the brown rice. And that's why there's less brown rice being sold
love this information
Been mixing my different rices eversince I moved out of my parents house.
Why I did this I don't know probably because I didn't had enough rice in the house.
Liked/Loved it so much that I've kept doing it.
My grown-up kids do the same and for the grandkiddies its the normal.
Here’s more on T. Colin Campbell:

I am more and more realizing that I am actually a health nut after watching some episodes here.
watching this while eating rice. yumz
Me too (white rice😂)
Brown /whole grain rice still the best. ❤️
I won’t mind eating mix rice variety as long as it’s served by this beautiful nutritionist
very good stuff to know. Nice to learn how GI can be lowered.
Why am IO watching this? Montpellier, France...great show
Be it white or brown, you'll still grow fat with overeating and lack of exercise.
Chris W 😂😂😂😂
Fact
Correct
Indeed right.
Jeff Cloud absolutely right, I know a lot of my friends going to the GYM not seen much results.
Thank you for the vital information. I don't eat white rice any more for six years now. Instead I eat brown rice once in a week or so. Is this ok for a diabetes type 2?. Will appreciate you responses and comments
I want all of the rice, apart from cold rice pudding. If I have to cook rice at home, I'll have brown rice, but when with family, I don't have a choice, so it's white rice.
For me i loved brown rice way more than white rice... it just has more flavrour, it needs to be crunched a little bit more...it's more satisfiyng to eat. So yeah for me is better in every way than white rice.
It's not always about calorie relation to weight. It's how a food affects our hormones, especially insulin...
This show is full of nutrition........
I eat a bowl of half a cup of white rice, a bowl of miso soup with some vegetables (usually spring onion, tofu and sometimes shiitake), a tiny bit of kombu tsukudani and a littlebit of picklet grated carrots, few pickles slices and either tofu/simmered dashi or tamagoyaki served with it. Ihave an active job and do between 20.000-30.000 steps each day so I can use all the energy I can get lol.
Just exercise. All the cooking they did on the black rice will make it like the white rice again, overcooking will turn it back into the same GI
Bad advice. Just exercising won't prevent your blood sugar level from spiking after eating rice. The only way to prevent it is to stop eating rice. If you're talking about losing weight, just exercising isn't enough. Why? A plate of rice has approximately 300 calories. To burn off this number of calories, you would have to climb stairs at a slow pace for 1 hour! Nobody eats plain white rice for their meal. If your meal is 600 calories, you would have to exercise for 2 hours. Who has time for that?
I was measured after every meal in hospitalised during December 2020. The small Chinese bowl of white rice will cause my blood sugar to rise up in alarm high; over shot the ok range.
So I ate half of it to remain in the range. So nowadays, I only take very few white rice due to blood sugar sake.
Have you tried the taiwan rice balls with different rice grains
There's one in square 2 novena
That berry rice sounds and looks good af. I hope I can look for some since I kinda disliked rice in general as I got older from the bland taste.
I prefer white basmati rice because there is less bad stuff in there. I serve it together with plant fibre like vegetables.
Tnx for sharing
260 calories per what? 100g? No that's 350 kcal. What unit of measurement do you even use?
Simple
Eat food when its hot. Cook the rice properly. And important please don't throw the water with which the rice is washed. Results in amazing skin and hair.
Don't know what the fuss is all about. Switched to brown rice pretty much overnight and now I prefer brown rice if I can get it outside. If cooking at home its brown rice all the way.
Like potatoes there is a simple way to lower their GI. Cook them, cool them in the fridge and they change from being easily turned into blood suger into a resistant starch. It remains like that even when you re heat it.
One pertinent point not covered - recommended to presoak brown,red, black rice (preferably overnight) as pre soaking grains helps to remove some of the naturally-occurring phytic acid in the grain, which helps improve digestibility and speed cook time.
This video is brought to you by the Riceberry Marketing Bureau.
are you serious?
@@arvinpillai681 seldomly.
@@ricksamericana749 how very cryptic 😂
That nutritionist is beauty af
I don't even eat rice anymore but this series is so interesting
Charlotte Mai knows her rice- for me each one of those rice's have a different flavour , lol and yes wild rice is not rice, so why would one use it as a example? ....there is short grain rice- also a different flavour.
I don't care whether it is white, or black, I need fiber.
The more fiber, the best.
In this context, oat is the best.
Try it. it also has calcium.
wow. Oatmeal. I love you.
Yes, I like oats, either steel cut or coarse oatmeal. I gave up rice years ago, first switched to barley, later (and still on) spelt grain. Anything you make with rice, you can make with spelt.
what are u? some oats salesman?
@@jayfong7 haha chill
good. more white rice for me. Jasmine thai rice.
The nutritionist is so beautiful😍😍😍
If you want to eat white rice just pair it with something that has more fiber.
2 leaf bai cai makes up for fiber, adds nutrition, who eats rice by itself really
Take a shot everytime the host says "rice" 😂
I took 27 and gave up. Not even kidding
The show is about rice after all.
bec it is about rice 😶
Love brown rice
This dude is a good presenter
Outstanding
But poor in fact presentation, many false equivalences and misrepresentation of scientific data even for mass consumption
everything in moderation. that's all
Absolutely
Exactly!!
That is the crux of the matter. Chinese people are not fat and yet they eat white rice. But they use a variety of vegetables, eat from small bowls and drink from small cups.
The problem in countries where obesity has become a medical burden, is that there is not balance with the non nutritional foods and drinks that are the source of the obesity. The chicken, chips, hamburgers, pizzas, fatty bacon, fatty pork sausages, etc, are not supplemented with vegetables. People eating in at fast food restaurants do not ask for vegetable salads to go with burgers, fried chicken, chips, pizzas and whatever else. And while people wait at home for such things to arrive, they don't make a salad. In addition, the portions, particularly in America, are extremely large or the number of food items people decide to consume are too many.
Dragon fruit
Right
would love it even more if you had test the not rice "rice" as well
like the wild rice thing,shirataki rice etc etc
I like whole grain rice because it's additional taste and aroma. It's also easier to be washed than white rice.
Brown rice is definitely whole grain, but many packaged red and black rice are actually polished and no longer whole grain.
For those 2, you need to see the grain closer. Whole grain ones should still have groove textures.
If it's smooth, that means it's polished. Don't buy this one.
Good tip! I wouldn't have known how to tell the difference otherwise! thanks!
And you can eat sprouted rice very good
My understanding...Brown basmati.. more fibre, lower gi index.
I'm using red rice.. I actually mixed it with white rice... but still we need to control our carbs intake..
i still prefer white rice.
Ms Ros, your mention of CHOCOLATE RICE sounds familiar yet funny...🍚
There is chocolate rice it's called champorado
Rice is bad? LOL. LIES! MARKETING LIES
My grandparents on both sides, rice and fruit farmers, ate 6-12 cups of rice/day and lived to their late 80s and early 90s with no cancer, hypertension or any serious disease.
My aunts and uncles are in their 70s are all rice eaters. The only ones who got diabetes or cancer, 4 of them out of 14, are the ones who drinks soda pop and statins daily.
My wife and I are in our 40s eating 4-10 cups white rice daily since we remember. No diabetes, hypertension or cancer. Id much rather avoid or eat minimally anything with refined sugar or high fructose corn syrup and any bread
Right, instead of nitpicking what type of rice best to eat. Might as well focus on what sugary food should be eliminated from diet. There is no use eating these rice while drinking bubble milk tea all the time, just eat fresh food and cut out processed food/drinks. Balanced diet is everything.
Well, your grandpa and ma, doing everything almost manually.
While we are now? Click that click this and voila.
I've been eating riceberry mixed with brown rice and now I'm thinner so yes it is good since 2016
Brown Rice Actually Contains 80% More Arsenic Than White Rice (Arsenic Is a Type Of Carcinogen That Can Cause Cancer In The Skin Lungs Bladder Or Kidney)
So It Is Not Good.
I've been eating white rice all my life and now i have a girlfriend so yes it is good since beginning of time! Gangster logic!
@@chengchiu957 White Rice Also Contains Arsenic
And If You Read My Reply Carefully You Can See That I Said 80% More Arsenic Than White Rice
Meaning There Is Still Arsenic In It
@@frankie.s___ and brown rice has on av 80% more arsenic than white rice, in face when removed it becomes white rice! Good to know facts
Do any one of them good for someone who is eating gluten-free diet?
2:54 "... like you and I" here should be "... like you and Me" because the context in this sentence is the OBJECT.
rich people thinking about differences between several rice varieties while poor people struggle to buy a kilo of white rice and is more concerned about its ricing market price. i like mixing white rice and red rice though.
Well, middle-class people are also thinking that way. Only the poor lower class people struggle to buy white rice. Sad but true.
@@wpyoga well said.
+1 for investigative journalism
My grandparents were rice farmers, brown rice is rice seed after the hull removed. The hull texture is similar to sandpaper.
problem in many part of asia if not all, when you’re eating out it is almost impossible to order brown rice let alone berryrice, red rice or wildrice.
I always thought how can Red/Brown rice have less calories when its essentially white rice with more "stuff" left on. Glad I am not crazy.
Very interesting documentary; I only knew about white, brown, and Jasmine rice. I never though there where other varieties. Hope I could try them all; no idea where I can find them
I mixed my white rice with black and red rice , and s9e times purple rice which will really make your white rice purple. 😉
Riceberry is so nice... It tasted abit like putu hitam. We love it.
No grain, no pain
meh white rice is still dominant to my opinion since it does complement almost every side dish,red rice was also fine the rest however has there own flavor distinction which sometimes just ruins the taste of side dishes.
Her voice is like angel that whisper to me...
Is she whispering "I only date white guys"?
Basmati is also much lower GI than Jasmine. It's not just the polishing that's so bad in white rice. Also it's not about calories but what they do to your blood sugar. Pure fat is less fattening than raw sugar.
I’ve only had riceberry as a dessert cooked in coconut milk and egg custard on top.
I’ve never had it
I always mix wild rice, brown basmati,black rice, white basmati rice with cauliflower rice together and it is delicious and reduces my G.I index than eating white rice
For the nasi lemak segment, the rice is only soft because of the cooking time/method
The amount of water and oil makes a difference also.
The best riceberry is from Thailand and it's popular there.
If something has almost no market penetration, like rice berry which I've never heard of though I'm smart urban and interested, it's very easy for it to multiply three times. It's still might only be 1% of the market but it used to be 0.3%.
When I hear statistics like this I understand that I've been tempted to be misled.
Ah but what place does actual thinking have in this discussion?
In the old days, the time of my grandparents, white rice is a luxury, "Kintomen" red rice, "Balatinao" black rice, "Tinawon" one year brown rice, and "Diket" glutenus rice, it was commonly grown in the Philippines Cordillera till the introduction of imported white rice varieties, my grandparents and even my parents younger years use to pound rice to remove the husk using mortar and pestel evermorning, just to prepare and cook rice for the whole day's needs,when there's a low harvest of rice, it is supplemented with sweet potatoes,cassava,plantains,taro roots,wild yams, as substitute with rice,but when threshing mashines and the introduction of highyealding white rice, all of the native rice loses its value, everybody don't need to work hard for preparing rice, all you need to do is buy from the market and cook it using electric rice cooker.
