Rice is part of everyday Indian diet and have multiple benefits. Here we give a list of different types of Indian rice with their nutritional benefits.

Polished white rice

White rice is the easiest way to digest during any time of the day and that is why it is recommended for children and older people. White rice is consumed by most Indian families due to the high carbohydrate content and  provides ample energy. It is also helps in relieving digestive disorders such as diarrhea, colitis and dysentery. And  also has a sober amount of protein - every 150 grams of rice has about 5 grams of protein.

White rice is also used as a soothing powder for the skin. It is used in case of skin inflammation caused by small-pox, measles, prickly heat, burns and scalds.

But the sad part is that in the process of coming from farm to our plates, all the nutrients and vitamins from it are normally removed. This polished rice has nothing more than refined starch. However, if you buy it from a trusted local source like sri balaji impex, you may still have its goodness intact.
