Harvard School of public health in Massachusetts recently published a report on rice Eating white rice increases the risk of type 2 diabetes, while eating brown rice reduces the risk, the report said More than 39000 men and 157000 women participated in the study The researchers tracked participants' diet and activities, as well as their previous illnesses The study found that people who ate refined white rice five or more times a week increased their risk of type 2 diabetes by 17 percent People who eat brown rice two or more times a week have a seven percent reduced risk of the disease Researchers say the outer layer of brown rice slows down the flow of digestive enzymes into the starch This means that after eating brown rice, sugar is released into the blood more slowly than eating white rice.
