Rice
What it is
Rice is a cereal grain available in many varieties and forms. This table uses cooked medium-grain brown rice as a named example; it is not a universal profile for all rice.
What it does
The reference provides 23.5 g of carbohydrate, 1.8 g of fiber and 44 mg of magnesium per 100 g cooked. Magnesium contributes to energy metabolism.
Research context and ingredient forms
Variety, milling, enrichment and cooking water can change the figures. Brown-rice protein concentrate is a separated ingredient and should not inherit the whole cooked-rice profile.
Using this information
Choose a matching record for brown, white, enriched or flavored rice. Use cooked weight for this table and count oil, broth or sauce separately.
