Your body doesn't crave raw rice for no reason.
And no — it's not a "phase."
We see patients at Sprint Medical who've been eating raw rice daily for months, sometimes years. Every single time, the blood report says the same thing:
Iron deficiency. Sometimes B12. Always nutritional.
What raw rice actually does to your body 👇
(Swipe — it's backed by science, not opinion)
✦ 60,000+ people get Bacillus cereus food poisoning yearly — raw rice is a primary source
✦ Lectins in raw rice cannot be digested — they pass through your gut and damage the lining
✦ Arsenic found in rice fields is NOT removed without cooking
✦ The medical term for this craving is Ryzophagia — a recognised form of Pica linked to anaemia
✦ In a published clinical case, a patient eating 200g raw rice daily was cured in 15 days with iron therapy
This is a medical issue disguised as a food habit.
If you or anyone you know does this → get a blood test done.
It might be the most important thing you do this week.
