Brown rice and white rice

Brown rice and white rice

The importance of brown rice has come to be called out these days, probably because brown rice neutralizes radioactive substances (cesium, strontium, etc.) and has a detoxifying (detoxifying) effect.
Inositol and γ-oryzanol contained in brown rice have the effect of strengthening the function of the liver, and in this respect as well, the detoxification (detoxification) effect is enhanced.
It is also important that it is an alkaline food.

Because it is brown rice, it is not always good.
The reason why brown rice is good is that it absorbs sugar slowly, but the other is that it is rich in nutrients.
Ancient brown rice is not added with pesticides, but modern rice is more likely to contain pesticides.
This should be pointed out, of course, and if this point is not cleared, it cannot be said unconditionally that brown rice is good in modern times.
Furthermore, there is a problem of radioactivity these days.
In fact, brown rice has the property that it is easy to store radioactivity in rice, and the irony that brown rice takes nutrients and also radioactivity at the same time may be established in Japan today.

Brown rice itself contains many nutrients (inositol, γ-oryzanol, etc.), but in exchange, white rice is deficient in many nutrients, as the word “residue” implies.
Brown rice is far superior to the problem of sugar absorption.

It has long been known that white rice regular diet is beriberi, but this is also the result of malnutrition.
The dangers of a regular diet of white rice have been taken up many times since ancient times, and macrobiotics, which started about 85 years ago, recommend brown rice vegetarian diet as a "normal diet" for Japanese people.
I don't say that macrobiotic diets are all right, but I don't think this is wrong.
