Whole-grain brown rice — fiber-bearing version of white rice.
Slower-digesting than white. Slightly fewer calories per gram cooked. Better for steady energy meals; white rice better post-workout.
Best for
- training days and glycogen refill — 26g carbs / 100g
- budget meals where cheap energy density matters
Watch out
- portion creep — cooked volume looks bigger than the grams you meant
- sauces and oils that turn a carb staple into a hidden calorie sink
