How Many Calories in White rice?
100g gătit = 130 kcal
Nutritional Values per 100g
Standard Serving
100g gătit contains 130 calories.
Best time: Post-workout or lunch - when the body makes the best use of fast carbohydrates
Benefits
- ✓Fast-absorbing carbohydrate (~28g/100g cooked) - ideal for replenishing muscle glycogen after intense workouts
- ✓Very easy to digest - the lack of fiber and bran makes it gentle on the stomach, useful on hard training days or for those with digestive sensitivity
- ✓Naturally gluten-free - a safe option for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity
- ✓Affordable and extremely versatile - pairs easily with lean protein sources (chicken, fish, eggs) and vegetables for balanced meals
- ✓Moderate calorie density once cooked - 130 kcal/100g, allowing satisfying portion volumes in main meals
Considerations
- !Low in fiber (0.4g/100g) - pair it with vegetables or a protein source for satiety and a more balanced glycemic response
- !High glycemic index - raises blood sugar quickly, which is why it works best around training rather than in the evening at rest
- !Contains fewer minerals and B vitamins than the whole-grain version, since the outer layer is removed during refining
FitAzi Tip
FitAzi includes white rice mainly post-workout for rapid glycogen recovery, but prefers brown rice for the rest of the day for fiber and satiety. Weigh the rice cooked (not raw) to respect portions - 150-200g cooked covers a typical carbohydrate serving at a main meal. Combine it with a protein source and vegetables to slow sugar absorption and build a more complete meal.
