THE IMPORTANCE OF RICE WATER YOU DIDN'T KNOW
Most of the people especially the ladies since there are the ones who deal with the cooking, they don't mind about the rice water and so after rinsing
the rice they pour the water away. If not that some of the ladies never mind about the rinsing process and instead they just power water in the rice then cook immediately, and they end up losing some of the vital supplements that could be useful to them.
But because of this ignorance,
today me and my team decided to make a post so as we can try our level best to educate our wives alittle about the importance of rice water and all the details are in this guide.
Rice is the seed of the grass species Oryza sativa (Asian rice) or Oryza glaberrima (African rice). As a cereal grain, it is the most widely consumed staple food for a large part of the world’s human population, especially in Asia. It is the agricultural commodity with the third-highest worldwide production.
Many websites recommend using rice water to lighten the skin or reduce dark patches. In fact, a lot of commercial products including soaps, toners, and creams contain rice water.
Some people swear by the skin lightening powers of rice water. While some of the chemicals in it are known to lighten pigment, no evidence exists for how effective it is thought. Below are some Amazing benefits of rice water you need to know;
1. Dry Skin
Rice water is known to help with skin irritation caused by sodium laurel sulfate (SLS), an ingredient found in many personal care products. Anecdotal evidence has shown that using rice water twice a day helps skin that has been dried and damaged by SLS.
2. Damaged Hair
Hair that’s been bleached can be helped by inositol, a chemical in rice water. It helps repair damaged hair from the inside out, including split ends.
3. Use For Face
A 2013 study showed that rice wine (fermented rice water) can help improve skin damage from the sun. Rice water increases the collagen in the skin, which keeps your skin supple and helps prevent wrinkling.
Rice water also appears to have natural sunscreen properties. Other studies show strong evidence for the anti-aging benefits of fermented rice water because of its antioxidant properties.
4. Digestive Upsets
Some people recommend drinking rice water if you get food poisoning or a stomach bug. While there’s solid evidence that rice helps diarrhea, it often contains traces of arsenic. Drinking a lot of rice water with a concentration of arsenic can lead to cancers, vascular disease, hypertension, heart disease, and Type 2 diabetes.
5. Eczema, Acne, Rashes, and Inflammation
Plenty of people claim that applying rice water topically can soothe the skin, clear up blemishes caused by skin conditions like eczema, and help it heal. Based on what we know about the properties of rice water, there’s reason to think that some of these claims are true. However, hard evidence is still lacking.
6. Cure Eye Problems
Some say that drinking rice water or eating certain types of rice can help fix eye problems like macular degeneration, which usually affects older people and can result in blindness. So far, that claim hasn’t been proven.
7. Sun Damage Protection
Chemicals contained in rice have been shown to help protect the skin against the sun’s rays.
A 2016 study showed that it was an effective sunscreen when combined with other plant extracts.
How To Prepare Rice Water
There are different ways to prepare rice water. They all require thorough rinsing of the rice before working with it. Most say that the type of rice you use doesn’t matter.
