In terms of digestibility, there is no difference between rice and pasta, both of which are easy to digest. But by weight, the water content of rice is higher than that of steamed bread, pancakes and other pasta, so the heat energy per unit weight is relatively low. This may be the reason why some people complain that eating pasta is easy to get fat.
In protein, although the quantity of protein is higher than that of rice, the quality of protein is lower than that of rice. Noodles contain 40% "gliadin", of which lysine is seriously lacking; The content of "gliadin" in rice is less than 20%, and the biological value of rice protein is higher in common grains. In other words, the utilization rate of rice and flour in protein has doubled again.
In terms of vitamins, the living standard in the past was low and there were few non-staple foods. Eating rice is really prone to malnutrition. But now all kinds of chicken, fish, meat and eggs are exchanged, and vitamin B 1 is no longer the main problem, so the advantages of pasta are difficult to show.
