[Title] => Brown rice better than white
[Summary] => There is a prevailing misconception that the whiter the color of a rice, the better. This is because well-milled or polished rices are believed to be cleaner and have better qualities.
Wrong. The fact is unpolished or brown rice has more calories, vitamins, minerals, essential oils and other nutrients than the white rice commonly found on the dining table of Filipinos, according to Dr. Leocadio Sebastian, executive director of the Philippine Rice Research Institute in Muñoz, Nueva Ecija.
