Taking rice at breakfast? Unhealthy :O

Yeah, your Aunt is right. There is no argument to this. Rice is bad and unhealthy at breakfast. It is bad for lazy people. It is bad for people who only think about eating. It is bad for those people to have rice in the morning because they will only get back to sleep. It is bad for their health, it will only stay in their stomach, and the nutrients or the carbohydrates or the cholesterol they will get will not be utilize, if they will fall asleep. See, your Aunt is right, rice is unhealthy. For Lazy People...

I think having the rice as breakfast is healthy. Although we seldom have rice as breakfast, but here we believe that having the rice as breakfast can make you have a strong body. I love China

I think it depends on the perspective of a person if the food is health or not,. Information are very much available to have a debate on it,. But for me, what people tend to think is how our body reacts. So if a person have a heavy work and needs a heavy breakfast, rice would be good to sustain the pressure in work,. But if the person is very much concern with the health, oats and fruits would be the best. Best for people who needs diet.

hello, No,it's not unhealthy. Even people who doesn't eat rice for breakfast are still taking carbo when they take bread or other rootcrops for breakfast. Maybe for old ones,they prefer to eat fruits at breakfast instead of taking rice. Some people who has illness takes fruits for breakfast,it's good to detoxify the body. Here in our country,rice is the main meal for breakfast,lunch and dinner. Still people are healthy. What makes food unhealthy is when you are eating a balance healthy diet,like over-eating or eating unhealthy foods like fatty,too salty or junk foods.

Hi there, I would actually disagree with your aunt, as rice is generally considered a healthy food option. Everyday, for 2 years I used to eat for breakfast boiled rice and an omlette. I found it filling and nourishing and never once felt after eating it sleepy or lathargic. In the West I don't think people eat enough rice and don'tb experiment with it for various meals and the variety of ways and things that can be eaten with it.

i can't see any logic on what your auntie is pointing out. My teacher once said that it is better to eat rice in the morning because our stomach is empty for the whole night unlike lunch that we have our snack in the morning. Generally speaking regardless of what country we live in, any food can be eaten as long as our stomach is not empty.

Hi Dear Besthope! I am from India. Many people in India is where the Rice is staple food , they have rice in the break fast. In southern part of India, he rice is eaten early in the morning along with salt and Curds. In southern states the dishes made out of rice namely Idli and Dosa are eaten as breakfast and people are healthy over there. For that matter our diet mainly consists of more carbohydrates than protein and fats because we need more energy which we draw from Carbohydrates! So even if you consume bread or any other products prepared out of wheat still you will be consuming Carbohydrates and the results will be same! So in my opinion it is not the type of food what you consume which matters, it is the balancing of one's diet which is important! Thus one should have a balanced doet and should have enough of exercise to burn the excess calories to keep one self fit! Thanks for the discussion ! I liked participating in it!

I don't think it's unhealthy as long as you don't take it too much. but as I read from the mags, that we are suggested to eat protein for breakfast :)
