Eating cold rice will produce a kind of resistant starch. Its low calories can easily cause indigestion and absorption in the stomach, but it unexpectedly has a weight loss effect. However, not everyone is suitable for eating cold rice. Cold rice can cause bloating, so people with excessive stomach acid are not recommended to eat cold rice.

Cold rice turns into resistant starch, which controls the rate of blood sugar rise and hinders the synthesis of fat in the body.

Nutritionist Fang Qingyi said that when rice gets cold, it will become resistant starch (the legendary "good" starch, such as starch from root vegetables and beans), which can control the rate of blood sugar rise, inhibit the secretion of insulin, and thus hinder the synthesis of fat in the body. In addition, resistant starch is very low in calories and is not easily digested and absorbed, so it can reduce calorie intake and prolong the feeling of fullness, which helps lose weight. However, nutritionists warn that after heating cold rice, it returns to the properties of normal starch and will not become resistant starch again until it cools down.
