Why are certain foods (bread, rice, eggs) healthier when brown than white?
In: 1
Whole grains. Also they’re not messed with. Brown grain in its natural form needs to be processed and bleached to become whitened, which means that it loses a lot of its nutritional value such as fibre.
If you were following a full clean eating diet you could eat most of the unprocessed brown foods like brown sugar for instance. It’s bleached through bone char (so white sugar is not technically vegan friendly) but not the white.
Pure brown wild rice is better than white as it contains more fibre and magnesium.
The egg thing is a myth though.
