Ricism Addendum

Just a quick note: in my entry entitled "Ricism" I concluded that white rice isn't necessarily bad for you, just not AS good as brown rice or whole grain. Wellllll......I've since read that white rice actually isn't the best choice because the process of making the rice white removes the alkaline from the rice, causing it to raise the acid levels in our bodies and throw off our pH balance. It breaks down into sugar much more quickly than brown rice, throwing insulin compensation into overdrive, making a person more susceptible to diabetes.

So there ya' go. The naked truth about rice. That is all.
