If you are a predominately wheat and meat eater, you would eat a smaller volume of food, as the food is high density. Rice is very low density, so you require a lot more volume of food. This means that you will get hungry with it much faster. Chinese food also tends to be lower in fat, consisting mostly of Anand Srivastavahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15616369007370348265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490468598422095060.post-14523825576399409152014-08-01T19:37:24.516-07:002014-08-01T19:37:24.516-07:00oldinvestor:
