Rice Bran Nutrition

Well, let's start with rice bran's super antioxidants, particularly the special vitamin-E complex (which is only found in rice bran, barley and palm oil). Stabilized rice bran is the source of a newly discovered complex of vitamin-E and tocotrienols, along with tocopherol the compound generally called vitamin-E. The tocotrienol compounds are 40-60 times more potent as other antioxidants.

Now, let's look at another special element of stabilized rice bran called lipoic acid. Lipoic acid is an advantageous compound for producing energy in muscles and is another important part of the antioxidant system. Lipoic acid directs calories into energy production and away from fat production. Lipoic acid is known as the "universal antioxidant" that directly and indirectly helps protect every body component from the damage of oxidative stress.

Finally, there's the rice bran. This is the real nutritional powerhouse of the rice grain -- the bran contains proteins, minerals, vitamins and healthy plant-based fats. This is the "nutritional storehouse" of the rice grain, providing the most important nutrients the sprouting rice plant needs to power its immune system, root system, circulatory system and other important plant metabolic functions.

Rice bran and its products are one of the highest natural sources of phytosterols in nature. Phytosterols help reduce cholesterol by decreasing lipid (fats) circulating in the bloodstream. They are strong anti-inflammatory agents and immune-function enhancers, and decrease susceptibility to infection. They also help prevent cancer through their action of inhibiting abnormal cell growth. The following benefits of phytosterols have been demonstrated by scientific citations:

  • Reducing total cholesterol (Ref-6)*
  • Inhibiting the synthesis of LDL-C (Ref-7)*
  • Reducing BPH (benign prostatic hyperplacia) (Ref-8)*
  • Providing anti-inflammatory effect (Ref-9)*
  • Inhibiting the growth of breast cancer cells (Ref-10)*
  • Inhibiting colon cancer cells (Ref-11)*
  • Helping in Cancer prevention (Ref-12)*
  • Improving the immune system (Ref-13)*

Rice bran products are also a good source of tocotrienols. The following benefits of tocotrienols have been demonstrated by scientific citations:

  • Reducing total and LDL cholesterol (Ref-14)*
  • Reducing overall cancer risk (Ref-15)*

So far, the most promising uses are against diabetes, high cholesterol, liver abnormalities and cardiovascular disease. (Ref-1)*
