Nutrition Nugget: Cool Your Rice

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-size, bonus episodes offering tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn's talking about cooling your rice. Is it healthier to cook and cool your rice before eating it? The short answer is YES. The benefits come from the quality of the resistant starch, a type of fiber that is a powerful prebiotic, that is created upon cooling! Jenn breaks down the chemistry of this process and why resistant starches are beneficial for us. But, not all starches become resistant starches, so tune in to learn which vegetables and foods this impacts and how you can take advantage of these benefits. Like what you're hearing?
