Study: Black and Green Rice with Unusual Fats and Slower Digestion
Scientists found that black and green Japanese rice contain unusual, potentially beneficial fats and may be digested more slowly than ordinary white rice. The combination could make these colorful varieties promising ingredients for foods designed to support blood sugar and metabolic health.
What the Research Says
Hypothesis: The work examines the fat composition and digestion behavior of the two rice varieties; their suitability for such foods is described as a possibility.
