Why villify white rice?

OK! I'm Asian too! 80% of the popularity on this earth thinks that white rice is a fatty food that will make you gain weight. I'm a Norwegian-born Tamil who eats white rice for dinner almost everyday. and NO! I've never gained weight, unless I eat a MCDONALDS big mac beside the rice. So stop thinking that rice is something that will kill weight loss.

It's because the other foods which the people in those countries consume is mostly healthy.

I don't think any food should be vilified, but Americans are fat because of McDonald's.

Oh, we are?

That's so strange because I NEVER eat McDonalds, Burger King, Wendys, Kentucky fried chicken, Taco bell, etc.

I've never eaten a hamburger, or any type of meat since I've been alive.

But thanks for letting me know, clearly you know more about my body than I do.

That’s a lot of the problem when people do low carb diets, they get hungry so quickly because carbohydrates serve to expand in the stomach and help fill you up, satisfy you so you don’t keep eating.

Not me. I dont feel hungry at all after a low carb meal. There is a difference between HAVING to eat and WANTING to eat.

One thing to keep in mind is that insulin is a biochemical prison guard that prevents your body from using stored fat as an energy source. So if the food you eat all day long is triggering insulin production, your body is unable to burn stored fat. While trying to reduce your body fat significantly, try to chose foods with a lower glycemic index.

Stop talking about things you don't understand.

Obviously something someone found online holds much more weight.

I'll take one of the top researchers in the field of nutrition over the word of a random forum poster.

Totally agree!!

I don't think any food should be vilified, but Americans are fat because of McDonald's.

No Americans are fat because of overconsumption of calories. I know a lot of people who DON'T eat McDonald's (or any fast food for that matter) that are overweight. Many of my "vegan" friends are overweight.
It's not a mystery. Overconsumption is the issue.

Buh Buh Buh calories in - calories out doesn't sell fitness mags and supplements!

Moved to China and after almost two years of eating white rice two times a day I decided I should switch to the healthy brown type. Well I found out it is not only cheaper, BUT also tastes like crap. WHO KNEW.

Even an imaginary internet forum endocrinologist?

If this internet forum is so imaginary, why would you come here or bother to post? We dont exist....right?

Nice reading comprehension.

Careful, you are arguing with the real Ron Swanson.
