Description
Compared to all the other rice varieties out there, basmati rice is the best when it comes to fiber content. Despite having a fair amount of carbs, the fiber helps to keep the food low on the glycemic index.This means that it is not as likely to cause sugar rushes or lead to an increase in insulin in the body. The food digests slowly and releases the sugars over a prolonged period. Scientists have found that the fiber levels help to protect the health of the heart. Fiber prevents heart disease, especially when at least 25g of fibers consumed per day. Those with lower risks of heart disease will also have a lower risk of suffering a heart attack.
