The study looked at different types of Malaysian rice to see how they affect our health. They found that germinated brown rice with high amylose content can help lower the risk of diet-related diseases like obesity. These types of rice have lower sugar levels and higher antioxidants, making them a healthier choice for people who eat rice regularly. So, choosing germinated brown rice over white rice could be better for your health in the long run.
