Wild rice

Compared to basmati and brown rice, which are both long-grain rice varieties, wild rice has around 1.5 times as much protein. Nearly 7 grams of protein are included in one cooked cup (164 grams), along with enough levels of fiber, manganese, magnesium, copper, phosphorus, and B vitamins.

Wild rice does not have its bran removed, in contrast to white rice. That's great from a nutritional point of view because bran has a lot of fiber and vitamins and minerals. Arsenic, which can accumulate in the bran of rice crops grown in contaminated areas, is a concern because of this. Arsenic is a poisonous substance that can cause a number of health issues, especially when used often over long periods of time. Arsenic and other heavy metals like lead and cadmium can be significantly reduced in wild rice by washing it first and boiling it in a lot of water.
