The nutritional value of rice, like other cereals, depends on the type of grain and the way it is processed. After removing the shell and polishing the grain, the amount of vitamins, mineral salts, and fiber decreases, but at the same time, the digestibility of carbohydrates and proteins improves.
Rice is characterized by a high content of starch (up to 85%), which is easily absorbed, so rice is classified as a dietary product. But, on the other hand, rice starch is complex carbohydrates necessary for maintaining muscle strength and endurance, so athletes always include rice dishes in their diet.
