Brown rice with chicken: If you tend to exercise after lunch or dinner, avoid rich foods and have a simple dish of brown rice with chicken or tofu. It's a bland meal that sits well and provides a good amount of carbs and protein, says Meine.
A more varied diet is even better, such as including other whole grains and complex carbohydrates. On the other hand, eating white rice every day puts a person at higher risk for diabetes and other diseases and health problems. âBoth brown and parboiled rice offer higher nutrition than untreated white rice.
