The discussion was settled by Dr. Ginni Kalra, head dietician at Aakash Healthcare Super Speciality Hospital in New Delhi. "Rotti has more minerals than rice," the dietitian stated. While both roti and rice are high in carbohydrates, roti also has a higher fiber content than rice does, yet it still has the same amount of protein.

These are the nutrients that are especially deficient in white rice. These are the two nutrients that are present in extremely small amounts in rice, especially white rice. Furthermore, because rice's starch is so easy to digest, you feel hungry quickly even after eating a bowl full of it. Rice also contains simple carbohydrates. It lacks fibrousness. It easily and quickly breaks down.

Why is roti preferable to rice?

1. Obesity: Roti is a nutritious choice, particularly for those who are obese and/or have diabetes.

2. Encouraging weight loss: If you have diabetes or are trying to lose weight, roti is a better option.

3. Rice digests fast: Rice is a simple carbohydrate that breaks down quickly and releases glucose into the bloodstream, which raises blood sugar levels. 

4. Roti encourages satiety: In addition to maintaining the health of your digestive system, the fiber in chapati helps you feel fuller for longer.

5. Benefits related to nutrients: Roti contains large amounts of calcium, magnesium, and potassium in addition to sodium, all of which are absent from rice.
