Q: Does rice contain too many calories?Also,does it contain any protein?

A: Please see http://www.mikesfitness.com/content/calories-in-rice . Rice does have some protein, but it's nearly negligible in comparison to the amount of carbs. Brown rice can have a small place in your diet when trying to lose fat and can even be one of your staples when trying to gain weight and build muscle. Just don't eat white rice, go with brown instead.
