100 grams of rice (cooked weight, all below) has 2.6 grams of protein, equivalent to about one-eighth of 100 grams of meat protein.
The protein content in 100 grams of rice is relatively low, but as a staple food, the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents suggests that a daily intake of about 350 to 560 grams of rice provides about 9-15 grams of protein, which can supplement the body’s nutrition.
As a food, rice is also rich in carbohydrates, some fat, copper, a little crude fiber and other nutrients, which can maintain the body’s basic physiological functions and replenish the required energy, but rice does not have any therapeutic effects and efficacy.
It is important to note that the intake of rice should not be too much, which may cause fat accumulation, and at the same time, it should be accompanied by a reasonable diet and balanced nutrition.
