As an Asian, rice is a staple in our diet. I used to remove carbs in my diet when I am trying to lose weight but I did not like its consequences in my body like I am very irritable and I noticed a significant amount of hair. I used to eat brown rice but I still gain weight no matter how intense my workout is. When I discovered red rice, I was amazed that I still lose weight and I gained muscle mass without sacrificing my cravings for rice. It is said that red rice has a higher fiber content compared to other varieties that aids in digestion. It is also said to have a higher protein content. As long as one workouts regularly then I can attest from my own experience that having red rice actually helps in weight loss.
