Generally, multigrain rice is good for health, and white rice is bad for health. In particular, as the number of diseases caused by diet, such as colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer, increased, the mixed views on rice and multigrain rice became stronger. It is true that multigrain rice and whole wheat bread, which are complex carbohydrates, are healthier than white rice and white bread. But is multigrain rice really better for health than plain rice? Learn more regarding the health benefits of multigrain rice and steamed rice.
◆ Multigrain rice, more nutrients
Multigrain rice is richer in fiber, minerals, and vitamins (B1, B2, E, niacin, etc.) than white rice. Among the grains, it is much better for health if you consume coarse grains, that is, whole grains, than refined grains. One of the most important nutrients in grains is dietary fiber. It activates intestinal motility and contributes to cholesterol excretion and blood sugar control. Mixed grains that are not polished have more grain fiber than polished grains, so they are effective in preventing gastrointestinal diseases.

◆ Can multigrain rice prevent cancer?
The relationship between dietary fiber contained in multigrain rice and cancer is still controversial. In particular, dietary fiber was consistently found to be not associated with the prevention of breast and ovarian cancer. The relationship between carbohydrate intake and cancer was also weak, and no relationship between carbohydrates and breast, pancreatic, or bladder cancer was found. According to the Korea Cancer Association, there is no direct evidence regarding the relationship between multigrain rice itself and cancer. However, the risk of colorectal cancer can be slightly lowered through the consumption of unpolished multigrain rice.
◆ Why is rice good for cancer patients?
Cancer doctors and nutritionists recommend rice to cancer patients who have weakened physical strength and immunity. Why? According to the National Cancer Center, multigrains can be difficult to digest in the case of cancer patients, so white rice should be consumed for a while. In particular, rice is used as the patient’s main source of energy, so it is recommended to eat small amounts often.
As a result of a recent study examining the correlation between carbohydrate intake and death, it was found that the group who consumed the recommended amount of carbohydrate intake of 50% to 55% of total calories per day had a lower mortality rate. This is why it is important to eat the right amount of rice.

◆ Excessive consumption of rice increases the risk of diabetes and metabolic syndrome
When absolute energy intake is high and rice is consumed in excess of the recommended amount, the risk of developing diabetes or metabolic syndrome may increase. Eating a variety of vegetables, meat, and dairy products with rice can reduce the risk of chronic disease or metabolic syndrome. If you order vegetables, meat, and rice in the order you eat when you eat, it helps prevent diabetes. If you eat vegetable side dishes, fish or meat before eating rice, you can prevent a rapid rise in blood sugar.
