Interesting stuff. Is there enough carbs in it to interfere with keto?
I love re-fried brown rice. If this is now good for me rather than ready to knock me out of ketosis, count me in.
Resistant starch passes right through the small intestine and is ingested by gut flora in the large intestine, hence the word "resistant". None of the starch actually enters your bloodstream as glucose.
The author over at Free the Animal has kept stressing this point as people from a very-low-carb website attacked him about RS knocking you out of ketosis.
Give it a shot. Do you have those ketosis strips/sticks? Put the re-fried brown rice in the fridge overnight and eat it the next day cold. Some of the starch will have retrograded to RS. See if eating it knocks you out of ketosis.
Apparently Uncle Ben's rice, which is parboiled, has the most RS for any rice brand.
