    Hello ILs,

    Yeah topic want to discuss is regarding brown...not the color in crayons..but the color in food...yeah, these days all are prefering brown in their food...rather than white or over polished food..

    Brown Rice...

    When choosing the cabohydrates that which to be included in the diet...first comes in the list is brown rice...This carbohydrate will take much time to digest than white rice, so it is healthier choice.

    Brown rice is also helps in proper metabolic functioning....It better to include twice a week in the diet...

    Brown Bread....

    The bread which is prepared by whole wheat grains....seen every where these days. Instead of choosing white bread...brown bread is far better to include in diet...when other wheat products like chapathis are bore in daily meal.....

    While purchasing brown bread....we should notice not only the color brown but also at the ingrediants in it..coz now a days caramel is added to white bread to make it look brown in color..so have to be careful..

    Brown Peanuts....

    Yes....peanuts....are the most nutritious foods that should be included in daily diet..Peanuts are rich in nutrients,minerals,anti-oxidants and vitamins

    These are excellent source for vitamin-E..
    Rather than taking roasted peanuts....choose peanuts that are soaked and drained from water..they remain more minerals...

    ILs... pls add any brown food you know...which are healthy too...add them here:)

    Thanks for sharing this information :). Nowadays many people are following weight control regime and hence the awareness of the brown food items have also increased.

    regards,
