Roti Vs Rice: Which Is Better?
Well the age old war between roti and rice is still on. People give numerous arguments in favour of each. Some say that rice makes you fat, while some say that rotis are difficult to digest. So what is true and what not? Find out if rice makes you fat or roti is difficult to digest. Lets see which one comes out victorious in this conflict of healthy grains.
Carbohydrates-
Well
to
start
with,
rice
is
a
low
carbohydrate
diet
while
roti
is
rich
in
complex
carbohydrates.
The
process
of
these
enzymes
breaking
down
the
complex
carbohydrates
leads
to
much
more
calorie
consumption.
Thus
if
you
consume
rice,there
is
a
lesser
amount
of
energy
needed
to
break
down
the
carbohydrate
particles
than
roti.
For
people
with
a
weak
digestive
system,
it
becomes
difficult
to
digest
rotis
easily.
its
better
to
consume
rice
not
rotis
if
you
have
an
upset
stomach.
Lethargy- You must have seen people telling that they feel lazy after having rice in their lunch or dinner. The intake of rice causes a fast blood sugar spike. That is the reason behind people feeling lethargic after eating rice. But on the other hand if you have rotis in your diet then you will not feel lazy after your meal. Taking this point into view, we see that in this war of rice and rotis, the latter has emerged as the predominant winner.
Fat- Rice is rich in fats. So if you are a diet freak then it is better not to go for it. On the other hand rotis are not so rich in fats. That is why people with thyroid or obesity are recommended not to eat rice in their meals as rice makes you fat.
A lot also depends on the way you cook rice. If you cook rice in a pressure cooker then its a lot more unhealthy as it absorbs all the water from the rice. Cook rice in an open vessel and then strain off the extra water.
Fibre- Which one has more fibres, rice or rotis? The answer is very easy as rotis are rich in complex carbohydrates they are also a rich source of fibre. Fibre is very essential to maintain comfortable movements bowel . Rice on the other hand does not provide us with so much of dietary fibre when compared to rotis.
Both rice and rotis are healthy grains and have their own merits and demerits. So take these factors into consideration before you include rice or rotis in your meal.
