Rice and potatoes both have health benefits, but rice often comes out on top. Potatoes contain more oxalates and lectins, which can trigger sensitivities, especially since they belong to the nightshade family. About 28% of rheumatoid arthritis cases link back to nightshades, making potatoes a potential issue for many people.
White rice is a better choice than brown rice. The outer layer of brown rice holds more arsenic and lectins, which can cause inflammation. To get the best from white rice, rinse it and cook it with MCT oil, coconut oil, or ghee. This method creates prebiotic fiber, making it a clean and gut-friendly starch.
