Cutting out rice

More likely on a Bruneian diet, cutting down the amount of rice will help you see weight loss results. This is not down to the rice but the calories you are consuming on a daily basis. Like most Bruneian's eating rice is part of breakfast, lunch and dinner, so when you remove it because you want to lose weight you see instant results.

What often happens is the person will drop his/her weight so low without rice, that they fear eating rice in general. Most likely they will be confused how to maintain the ideal weight. Often some cases people become unwell.

What does rice do?

Rice is a starchy carbohydrate so it is a slow releasing carbohydrate. Rice allows you to maintain energy throughout the day.  This means it helps balance out blood sugar levels. It can be broken down  into glucose and used for energy of stored in the muscles or liver.

Bruneian lifestyle

Because most Bruneian's have been raised on rice meals, it is wrong for someone to completely cut out rice as you will be missing quality family meals. All it means is you have to be in control of how much you eat. The big link is to the high levels of diabetes in Brunei. Often the common causes of Type 2 diabetes is because of the diet. So often he blame goes to the rice. Not because the diet lacks fruit, vegetables or quality fats and protein.

How much is enough?

This is different for every individual, but if you are trying to control your diet, you will need to be aware of how hungry you get during the day. Also look at what else you are eat...are you eating enough fruit and vegetable? My recommendation is have a palm full as a guideline.

Different types of rice

There are other options of rice. The reason why white rice is refined is it has a better taste, so you will generally opt for white rice over brown. So is brown rice better? It is only has a better G.I index so you can release glucose slower into the bloodstream. It also has a better fibre value too. It still needs to be in control

Summary

White rice should not be to blame for you medical condition or weight. It is a combination of your lifestyle and food control. Focus on having a more healthier balance plate.
