How does eating raw rice affect your health?

Answer 1

Yes

Lectin, an anti-insecticide and several bacteria are found on uncooked rice and might cause food poisoning if eaten in large amounts. Cooking however enhances the absorption of the nutrients found in rice which otherwise would not be available because of the coating of rice grains.

Answer 2

Raw RiceIt's not unhealthy, but the rice will swell in your stomach. If you eat a large amount, you could certainly have discomfort. In extreme cases, your stomach could even burst. This has actually happened to people, mostly children.

Here is more advice and input

• If you soak the rice in warm water for a few hours, it will absorb the water and will not expand in the stomach.
• It's also probably not the best for your teeth.
• Actually, if you don't boil the rice, you will receive more nutrition. The only problem is the swelling of the rice inside your body. Don't eat too much!
• Also try soaking with lemon juice or vinegar or whey. this will decrease the anti-nutrients.
• If left out for more than 45 minutes, don't eat it or you'll get food poisoning.
• Yes, eating uncooked rice is bad for you. I've had an experience with eating uncooked rice and I guess I just got addicted to the taste. I kept eating it and eating it, until my blood level just dropped. To the point where I had to be hospitalized for anemia because of eating uncooked rice. They had to do a blood transfusion on me because I was really pale. Take it from someone with experience: Eating uncooked rice is very unhealthy. Trust me... you will slowly get sick.
• From my experience from eating dry rice yes, you do lose a lot of blood; something in the rice makes your menstruation longer. It just keeps making the blood flow out every time you eat dry rice.
• I ate a pound of dry rice once for a bet. I was a bit tipsy at the time, but it was okay - though I felt a bit funny in the morning. I guess something was going on in my tummy.

If, however, you do eat raw (uncooked) rice:

If you do eat raw rice, chew well, very well (several minutes per mouthful) not just a few chews or even just a few dozen chews. This will minimize the swelling in your stomach (the swelling will already have occurred in your mouth while you were chewing).

Answer 3

I read eating raw rice helps rid your body of parasite. Any information to prove this. I heard about this in Japan and tried it but there is a huge range of parasites and it is unlikely to affect all of them, if any at all. Raw garlic is a very safe and effective way to remove parasites, but that won't get every type either. Eating grains (and cooked food) is what causes parasites in humans in the first place, because it slows down the digestive process to the point where they can gain a foothold. Raw grains are even more slowly digested than cooked ones Eating a high fibre diet of raw food speeds up digestion so that they are flushed out before they can do any harm. Eating cooked grains can make the digestive cycle up to six times slower than it should be.

Answer 4

No. Some people think that because it has carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are converted into glucose when they enter your body. Then the glucose goes into your blood and it is burned as energy. That's why carbohydrates give you energy.

Ok, eating lots of carbohydrates before you exercise is good. This is because you use a lot of energy when you're exercising. However eating too many carbohydrates when you aren't going to use that much energy is bad because instead of burning stored fat, your body burns glucose. So, if you eat a LOT (I mean a lot) of rice and just sit on the couch or something, you'll gain weight.
