What Cause Special Fried Rice?

Does eating white rice cause cancer??????

  • okay. this makes nooooo sense what so ever. so it my modeling class they were saying that the reason its always better to eat wheat bread is becuase white bread and white rice cause cancer. i was thinking about this, and MILLIONS of people consume white rice on a regular basis especially in china and other Asian countries. so how is this even possibly true? the lady who is directing it said that it sticks to your intestines and from then on, it stays there and so it somehow like gets into your blood stream.. i truly find this hard to believe.if anybody knows about this please help me understand.

  • Answer:

    If everything else stays equal, eating white rice would result in higher cancer rate than brown rice. (similarly for white bread and wheat bread) However, the reason isn't because of what you were told. The reason is that there were fibers and vitamins in wheat bread and brown rice that were not available in white rice or white bread. Furthermore, the difference in the cancerous effect between white/brown rice is so much smaller compared to what one eats WITH them. Eating lots of processed food and meat with little vegetables would contribute to cancer tendencies so much greater that would render the difference between white/brown rice to almost none. There is a survey on cancer from the diet and nutrition's perspective on http://www.thechinastudy.com/about.html

No, it doesn't. Think about it, you were in modeling class. I'm in pageants and honestly, the people there aren't very smart. If white rice caused cancer many more people would have cancer.

modeling class? honey, they want you to keep thin. wheat bread is much healther then white bread because it has less calories and contains less fat. same with wheat rice, and white rice. wheat rice is much more healther and better for you. i never heard of them causing cancer, so they may have just wanted you to think that so you don't gain a ton of weight, lol

That's total bull ****. She is an ignorant ***** who clearly has no knowledge whatsoever of what cancer is and how it is caused. Don't listen to anything she says.

Whole grain foods might be better in some ways than processed foods because they have more fiber, which helps keep you regular and helps keep blood sugar levels more constant. The good Lord made our bodies to be amazing machines. The intestinal track cleans itself of waste on a regular basis. Food does not get stuck to the intestines and stay there. It passes through within 24-48 hours in a normal healthy person.

it seems that everyday they come out with a new study that says something new causes cancer i would just eat what you want and keep a good attitude and hope for the best, or wait a couple months cuz there will probably be a new study that shows that same food now prevents cancer...
