Rice Does WHAT to Your Body？ Dr. Mandell

Rice is one of the most widely eaten foods in the world, but what actually happens inside your body when you eat it? In this video, Dr. Alan Mandell explains some surprising facts about rice that many people never consider, including how rice is grown, why it can absorb naturally occurring arsenic from soil and water, how processing changes what ends up in white and brown rice, and how different types of rice can affect blood sugar and insulin. You’ll also discover why the amount and frequency you eat matters, how the way you cook rice can help reduce arsenic exposure, and why eating rice with protein, healthy fats, beans, or fiber-rich vegetables can change your body’s blood sugar response. Rice doesn’t have to be eliminated from your diet—the key is understanding how to prepare it, how much you eat, what you eat with it, and why variety matters. These simple changes can help you make smarter choices while still enjoying one of the world’s most popular foods.
