But if you are eating brown rice and you still do not look well, try the following


・Soak the rice in water for a long time (8-17 hours) and replace the soaked water before cooking

・Do not use pot that reach 120°C or higher


・Excessive salt intake

・Eating brown rice for long periods of time without regard to one's constitution, physical condition, or environment.

These may possibly cause aging of the appearance, increase in gray hair, darkening of the skin, etc.

The important thing is to choose what to eat according to one's constitution and physical condition.

I eat it often too.

But it may not be the right food for you to eat every day.

The answer is within you.
