It is estimated that everyone has a say in whether rice is nutritious or flour is nutritious, and everyone's answers are certainly different. People who love rice must say that rice tastes good and tastes fragrant, which is most suitable for delicious food; People who love noodles must say noodles in ever-changing ways, and they can eat them with relish even without food.

1. in terms of content and quality, noodles are more than rice, but in terms of quality, noodles are worse than rice. Because noodles contain 4% "gliadin", but there is a serious lack of lysine, an essential amino acid for human body; However, the content of "gliadin" in rice is less than 2%, and the biological value of rice protein is relatively high in common cereals. In this way, considering the content and quality of protein at the same time, rice and flour are tied in the comprehensive utilization rate of protein;

second, from the vitamin point of view: wheat contains more vitamin B1, so it is not easy for people who take pasta as their staple food to suffer from beriberi; However, the content of vitamin B1 in rice is only about half that of wheat, and the content is lower after whitening treatment. If you only take white rice as the staple food and don't eat beans and potatoes, and the dishes are not rich, it is easy to suffer from beriberi because of vitamin B1 deficiency;

Third, in terms of mineral content, flour has obvious advantages in calcium, phosphorus, potassium and magnesium, while rice is better in zinc, copper and manganese.

Fourth, from the point of acid-base balance, polished white rice flour is acidic food, but the acidity of polished white rice is higher than that of polished white flour. Therefore, if white rice is used as the staple food, more vegetables and fruits need to be added;

5. As far as the degree of digestion is concerned, there is no difference between rice and pasta, and they are both easily digestible foods. However, from the point of view of providing energy, rice is lower than steamed bread, pancakes and other pasta, so the energy provided by unit mass is lower. It turns out that the water content of rice reaches 7%, while that of steamed bread is only 55% and that of bread is only about 45%. In other words, eating the same quality of rice and steamed bread, rice provides less energy than steamed bread; This is also the reason why some people say that "eating pasta is easy to get fat";

In fact, the specific nutritional value of rice and flour has a great relationship with their varieties, producing areas, processing accuracy and cooking methods. Therefore, people who love noodles don't have to refuse rice because of the advantages of noodles; People who love rice don't have to refuse pasta for the advantage of rice; For residents entering a well-off society, the key is to eat as little refined white rice and flour as possible, eat more coarse grains, and mix them with dishes reasonably to obtain more comprehensive nutrition.
