According to research presented at the American Chemical Society, cooking rice with coconut oil and chilling it for 12 hours can transform digestible starches into resistant starches, impacting calorie absorption. This technique has led to widespread interest in whether adding coconut oil to rice can truly reduce carbs and create a healthier staple food.

Research presented in 2015 at the American Chemical Society suggested that a specific preparation method using coconut oil could reduce the calories absorbed from rice by 50-60%. This surprising discovery sparks the question: is rice with coconut oil less calories, and what is the scientific process behind this claim?

A 2015 study published in the *Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition* showed that reheating cooked and cooled rice can significantly increase its resistant starch content. This article explains how you can use this and other simple techniques to decrease carbohydrates in rice, making it a healthier addition to your diet.

Studies have revealed that altering your cooking method can significantly decrease the glycemic impact of rice. This article explores scientifically-supported methods on how to reduce carbs in white rice by creating resistant starch and employing simple kitchen techniques.
