Description
Ofada rice is unpolished locally grown rice with some or all of the rice bran left on the grain, strengthening the flavour and making it more nutritious. Imported parboiled polished rice looks more aesthetically appeasing to the eyes than ofada rice but has less value of Nutrients to ofada rice. You should eat ofada rice because:
The rice is unpolished and not genetically modified.
It has about twice the fiber content of regular white rice. Fiber plays a significant role in our digestion process. Because of this high fibrous content, ofada rice is known to be one of the most effective natural colon cleansers which aids weight loss.
It lowers the level of LDL cholesterol a.k.a bad cholesterol. Having a high level of bad cholesterol in the body is a primary reason for excess weight because it (LDL) causes insulin resistance and when this occurs it naturally stimulates the body to store fat.
It has two types of fiber: soluble and insoluble fiber. The soluble fiber slows the rate at which food leaves the stomach and promote a sense of satiety, or fullness after a meal. This helps to prevent overeating and weight gain. That is the equation for fat loss; eat less and burn more.
It is a perfect Baby Food due to the dense natural nutrition and fiber it contains. This is a much better choice than refined white rice/corn cereal products because rapidly growing babies and toddlers require nutrient rich diets to help maintain rapid growth cycles.
It is very highly aromatic. It presents a whole-new experience filled with natural ingredients and a flavour that will appeal to all tradition-loving tongues. It is also known for swelling in size when cooked.
