Who has problems with the digestion, should reach to Rice reach for. The grain is easily digestible and gluten-free. The carbohydrates from them give energy and let the blood sugar level rise only slowly. Chickpeas are by much protein and iron a super meat substitute. So the body gets enough building material for all cells even without animal food.

Those who get them should choose a rice mixture with natural basmati rice. This provides even more fiber, vitamins and minerals than the light version. You are most likely to find this in unpackaged or organic stores.
