Are you on the journey to a healthier whole food diet?
Are you wanting to make some pantry swaps but not sure where to begin?
Today is your lucky day. This episode is part one of a three-part series about simple pantry swaps without the panic.
In my first three episodes I laid a foundation of whole foods verses over processed manufactured food-products, even products designated ‘healthy’. If you haven’t heard those yet, I encourage you to go back and do so.
Since the transition to a whole food’s life-style is a step-by-step process, we will start with what I have found to be four foundational stones to build upon: Whole Grains - Salt - Fats & Oils – and Bonus: Butter
At first, I was going to start with salt because it is absolutely vital for a healthy human body despite what the experts say. But as I studied the LORD corrected me to begin with whole grains.
Why? Because when it comes to food and nutrition that is where He began in Creation.

Rice Key Nutrients Differences:
- Fiber: Brown rice 3.2-3.5 g per cup - White rice only 0.6g
- Minerals: Brown rice offers substantially more manganese, magnesium, and phosphorus in each serving – White rice, barely any
- Vitamins: Brown rice is rich in B vitamins for good gut health, particularly high in thiamine (B1) and niacin (B3) is great for neurological health – White rice only provide only a few synthetic vitamins
- Macronutrients: Brown rice has slightly more protein and fat per cup which contributes to its lower glycemic indexing of 50-55 – White rice 72-79 some reaching the 89 range
Dietary Considerations
- Blood Sugar Management: Brown rice is superior for blood sugar management and micronutrient absorption; feeding the gut what it needs
Shelf Life: Because Brown rice is a whole grain it should be consumed within 6 months; where as White rice cans sit on the shelf for two years or more. What does that tell you?
