A balanced diet is essential containing all food groups and sufficient protein for muscle regeneration.
There is nothing wrong with rice, it is the staple diet of many nations and even in Australia my family eat it several times per week. My daughter practically lives on it, but she is not trying to be an elite athlete, competing against other elite athletes.
I am quite happy for our players to have rice every day, as long as there are eggs for breakfast and some meat based protein at lunch and dinner, to go with the rice.
