@drwilliamli: 🍚 You've probably been told to avoid white rice. But leftover white rice may actually help support your gut microbiome. 🔬 Here's why. When cooked rice is cooled in the refrigerator, some of its starch becomes resistant starch. Resistant starch feeds beneficial gut microbes, which produce compounds that help support gut health and healthy inflammation. 🌿 White rice isn't the villain it's often made out to be. Cook a little extra, cool it overnight, and enjoy it the next day. The same goes for leftover potatoes—they work the same way.
