I eat rice every day because i'm chinese (its my duty to fulfill the stereotypes) and its a good idea. Just dont eat too much because rice has a lot of cholesterol. Everybody in my family seems to eat a lot, but I dont really like it. It's good for your health though so I just eat it.
I eat rice too and yeah its high in cholesterol.
So i prefer rice for fat.
Plant cells have little to no need for cholesterol and they produce next to none. Oil extraction from plants will concentrate the cholesterol but even then, you would need to eat a kilogram of palm oil to get 20 milligrams of cholesterol. In contrast, you would only need to eat one 50g boiled egg to get ~190 mg. On average, the human body synthesizes about 3 grams of cholesterol per day.
Rice contains essentially zero cholesterol per kilogram. Where did you hear that rice is high in cholesterol? It's simply untrue.
Maybe he always eat fried rice cooked in highly saturated fat that contains huge amount of cholesterol.
Eating oily spicy foods, rice, butter will make you fat.
