The fiber in brown rice also helps control blood sugar levels.
Compared to white rice, brown rice contains more protein. High protein content can help build muscle mass and promote healthy growth in the body.
Phenolic compounds in brown rice help prevent oxidation (9-13 times higher than white rice).
Brown rice is low in calories, low in fat and sugar, and high in fiber. Therefore, they are a great choice for people on a weight loss or weight control diet.
