Brown Rice Onigiri

Why eating brown rice doesn’t make you gain weight

The staple food of the ninja was brown rice. This was because brown rice was less likely to turn into fat than potatoes and white rice.

It seems that the ninja found this out through experience, but modern medicine provides evidence for this. High levels of insulin are secreted after eating a modern meal, and this encourages the formation of fatty tissue, but brown rice actually has less of an effect on the secretion of insulin.
