Rice water
Rice water
Rice water is a suspension of starch obtained by draining boiled rice or by boiling rice until it completely dissolves into the water. It may be used as a weak gruel for invalids.[1] It is especially effective in the treatment of diarrhea such as that arising in cholera or gastroenteritis.[2][3]
