Brown Rice Is Healthy
Brown rice is a great addition to a happy healthy diet. Some of the benefits are that it is high in fiber which is good for helping to prevent colon cancer, it has as many antioxidants as some of the popular antioxidant fruits like blueberries and strawberries, it is a slow release sugar which helps stabilize blood sugar levels and it has natural oils that can help normalize cholesterol levels.

I have never had good luck making brown rice, it always came out yucky tasting, and either crunchy or like mush. I found this recipe and it is a never fail method and the best way to make brown rice I will use from now on.
