Very informative video. Bran contains high levels of arsenic no. How to handle it. Pl advice

[@munchandmull]

Namaskaram Here are some interesting insights about arsenic and rice. 1. Yes, arsenic is naturally found in the soil in some parts of India. Primarily, the Gangetic Plains, more so in Eastern India are reported to have higher soil arsenic. 2. South, Central & to some extent North India reportedly has low levels of arsenic 3. Pesticides and fertilizers are reported to be the biggest anthropogenic source of arsenic. In other words, rice cultivated organically and that too in South India, is likely to have lower levels of arsenic. That said, it is a tradeoff... Health benefits of the full bran rice vs lower arsenic in polished white rice. Rinsing the rice and cooking with more water (and draining excess water) is also reported to reduce arsenic levels. But draining excess water after cooking also results in loss of some nutrients. So again, it is a tradeoff. Bio Basics organic rice is mostly sourced from South India. So that can be one of the safest of options for you. You can use the promo code MUNCH&MULL to get a discount on your first order. I hope this helps. Regards Sujata 😊🙏

Is rice is unpolished,soak for atleast three hours. For pressure cooking, general one rice to three water,but for open mud pot cookiyou may need one rice to four water.

Good morning mam,a very very useful informative well detailed explanation.superb.pls do share about raw par boiled rice differences.im really confused to take in daily basis. nearly about 6 months I am taking traditional rices but confused to check to take raw rices because raw rice is heat and will create stomach upsets and pain I don't know it is superstitious belief or scientifically proven. please clarify. tq

[@munchandmull]

Raw rices do not cause any heat. Have not come across any such cases. Start with semipolished rice varieties. Once your stomach adjusts to this,you can switch to fully unpolished rices. Yes,will plan an episode on differences between parboiled and raw rices. Thanks and regards Sujata from Munch and Mull 🙏

[@munchandmull]

Here is the reply from Devi to you question on LIVE CHAT ... During recovery you can have Thooyamalli & Poongkar semi polished and well cooked so that you can digest it. However, if you have never had red rice before , this may not be a good time to start with red rice and ut will be better to have Thooyamalli semi polished rice.

It is quite expensive to buy from bio- basics

[@munchandmull]

Genuine organic products will cost more. In particular, Bio Basics is very particular about paying their Organic Farmers a fair price... Which is something nobody is really bothered about. Bio Basics ensures traceability of their products. In fact many rices are single farm origin, which means they are not sourced from multiple places and then mixed up. But all that said, their prices are comparable to other genuine organic suppliers

Why not use the soaking water for cooking? It has all the B vitamins from the bran dissolved in it! Also pressure cooking for so long(4 whistles on high flame!) Will certainly destroy remains vitamins . The purpose of eating brown rice is defeated!

[@sreedevilakshmikutty9951]

There are different schools of thought about how to use soaking water. We go with the school of removing the soaking water that contains some of the phytates , which act as nutrient inhibitors. You can cook brown rice in a vessel , the rice just requires more pre soaking and more cooking time. Having said that, the benefits of eating brown rice is not negated by it being cooked in a pressure cooker .

[@munchandmull]

I had requested Devi Lakshmikutty, Co-founder of Bio Basics, to respond to your query. Please see her comment above. I agree with her. Soaking & pressure cooking is a tradeoff between cooking time and nutrient loss. By choosing brown/red rice over white rice you are choosing a higher nutrition product. So at the end, overall, you are still better off I feel 😊🙏
