Is Cauliflower Rice Good For You?

First of all - cauliflower is much lower in carbs than rice (or any grain for that matter), making it the perfect swap for grain bowls. And here's the thing: even if you aren't following a lower carb diet, decreasing your carbohydrate intake can benefit you regardless of what your goals are.


Trying to lose weight? Perfect. A higher carbohydrate diet keeps your insulin levels (storing hormone) high which stimulates your body to stay in a fat storing state. Not what you want when you're trying to lose weight.


Trying to gain muscle? Excellent. You'll hear that not eating enough carbs can deter your performance. Turns out this study finds that statement to be totally false.


Second of all - cauliflower contains a few compounds, sulforaphane being one of them, that assists with detox - phase two to be specific. Detox is essential in your body and helps to get rid of medications, heavy metals and toxins in your body.
