There are about
216 calories in brown rice per cup.
This is
after it's cooked.
And when it comes to losing
weight, this carb can be one of your best friends.
Here's
why.
Very few people realize that your body needs
carbs.
Vital organs and tissues absolutely won't
function without them. This, of course, is one of the biggest
draw backs of low carb diets. They just are not healthy.
So
how do you eat carbs without getting fat?
You must
choose natural, whole grain carbs.
These types of carbs do not cause the dramatic blood sugar spikes as refined.
Here's where
brown rice comes in.
Natural brown rice is very
nutrient dense. And in certain studies it's been shown to aid
weight loss. Now, I personally can vouch for this.
Brown rice is a staple in my daily diet. I consume
it with ground beef, turkey, chicken and other meats and it has helped
me to shave off all my belly fat. Yes. All of it!
The bottom line is
you need to find a whole grain that you can make a "staple" carb in
your diet.
This will help you avoid carb cravings so you won't settle for refined garbage.
I promise you that
brown rice calories will make a huge difference for you.
