What is Red Rice Bran?
Red Rice Bran is extracted from the outer layer of the Red Rice and further processed to make it very soluble and assimilable by the human body, turning it into one of the most potent and accessible sources of a complex mixture of phytonutrients and antioxidants. Red Rice Bran has become popular in Japan for its high content of antioxidant phenolic compounds. The red pigments in the bran are water-soluble anthocyanins that are bonded to some of the rice bran proteins. The qualities of the weedy U.S. strains vary, but most red rices had higher protein contents than ordinary rices.
