Brown rice thread

[Serious]

Rice is rice. They all pretty much have the same GI. Just has to be eaten in moderation.

Moderation is the key, but peep this:

Thus, a high consumption of white rice may lead to increased risk of diabetes because of the low intake of beneficial nutrients, in addition to its higher glycaemic load

brown rice intake was associated with a modestly decreased risk of type 2 diabetes, and the substitution of brown rice or other whole grains for white rice was associated with a significantly lower risk of diabetes.

However, a recent study in Shanghai found that substituting brown rice for white rice for 16 weeks did not substantially affect metabolic markers in middle aged men and women, although high density lipoprotein cholesterol(good cholesterol) and diastolic blood pressure were significantly improved among people with diabetes through the brown rice intervention.

In summary, this meta-analysis suggests that higher white rice intake is associated with a significantly elevated risk of type 2 diabetes, especially among Asian populations. The recent transition in nutrition characterised by dramatically decreased physical activity levels and much improved security and variety of food has led to increased prevalence of obesity and insulin resistance in Asian countries.39 Although rice has been a staple food in Asian populations for thousands of years, this transition may render Asian populations more susceptible to the adverse effects of high intakes of white rice, as well as other sources of refined carbohydrates such as pastries, white bread, and sugar sweetened beverages. In addition, the dose-response relations indicate that even for Western populations with typically low intake levels, relatively high white rice consumption may still modestly increase risk of diabetes.

It's no lie. White rice spikes insulin levels like candy.

Which is why its not so bad as postworkout stuff.

I think the main problem is that most people aren't as active as previous generations. Which contributes to diabetes and the rising obesity rate.

That just looks like unbleached white rice. This is brown rice:

Yeah but thats un-cooked brown rice. When you cook brown rice, it turns more white than brown.

Takes like 20-30 minutes to cook, thats my only issue with brown rice.

Well yeah, but portion size also plays a role as well. People just eat too damn much. You can mitigate your diet by managing micronutrients but after a certain point you're eating too many calories.

Very true. MMS is doing this right now as an experiment. He lost several pounds eating fast food ( ) but in moderation....

There needs to be more awareness spread about portion size. Maybe even, some tighter regulation.

 

[Julius Skrrvin]

I'm not in favor of regulating portions or nutrition science because so much of this stuff is up in the air for debate. im sure youve seen that theres no consensus for this shyt at all, even in the scientific community let alone the internet.

 

[Serious]

Yeah this kind of why I hate giving advice on nutrition. Because at the end of the day, I read some many conflicting points. It's not even funny. Everything literally
varies from case to case ; person to person. Everything is up for debate. I like it though.

Heck, even in the article I posted there were quick responses challenging the claims. Not necessarily disagreeing with what mentioned in the article.

value meals and platters are the problem

people assuming they need the same portions as people bigger than them

the whole bigger is better when it comes to food is quality of food >>> quantity

To be honest the only massive consensus the nutrition field has come to in the last 20 years or so has been "carbs can make you fat really easily and protein helps build muscle". It's pretty much like everything else is up in the air. And the case by case basis point is pretty much always true. My macros or exercise plan or whatever might not work for you.

dont even get me started on the research behind fats and "good fats" and "bad fats", thats a fukking mess

 

[Serious]

LoL Trust, we've been through these arguments. Back on sohh.

The whole good cholesterol(HDL) vs bad cholesterol (LDL).

I actually been through several diets and have recorded. My gain in weight, fatigue, emotions etc...

In the future, I might even do roids for research purposes

As opposed to?

that was worded poorly, but you know what i mean as a reference to macronutrient proportions
