Wild rice is a grain that contains more fibre than white rice, but less than brown. The grain is about 50 per cent higher in protein than brown rice and the chewy texture helps you to eat more slowly, which can help you to control your appetite.
The dark meat is a good source of iron and the white meat is lower in fat than chicken breast.
