Rice or white rice is unfortunately thought to increase the risk of type 2 diabetes. A study showed that those who ate white rice more than five times a week had a 17 percent higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes than those who consumed only large portions of white rice.
Therefore, many people are starting to switch from white rice to brown rice, reducing white rice consumption, and trying to mix various kinds of rice with legumes, seeds, beans, or grains. In South Korea, this multi-grain rice called kongbap has even become a trend of healthy food. Multi grain rice itself is a healthy food consisting of rice, wheat, and seeds.
