Basmati rice has a unique nutrient profile that may provide several health benefits. It is lower in calories and glycemic index than many other types of rice. Whole-grain basmati rice is said to be healthier than refined white rice. It is high in fiber, antioxidants, and essential minerals.
Basmati is gluten-free and low in fat. In addition to containing all eight essential amino acids and folic acid, it's very low in sodium and cholesterol-free. Basmati has a low to medium glycemic index, meaning that energy is released at a slower, steadier rate, which leads to more balanced energy levels.
Basmati rice (baz-MAH-tee) is a type of white rice commonly grown in the Himalayas, India, and Pakistan—with India producing about two-thirds of the world's supply. It is a long-grain rice that is characterized by a light nutty flavor and floral aroma, and it's popular in rice pilaf and as a side dish for curry.
