Black rice is a very rare type of rice. Many people around the world pay attention to this because of its extraordinary properties. Although rare in many countries, it has long been cultivated in Sri Lanka. There are 7 types of black rice that are conserved in Sri Lanka. We are working to expand this rare rice.

• A good source of several nutrients.
• Rich in antioxidants.
• Contains anthocyanins.
• Can improve heart health.

Now let’s take a look at each issue separately

1. A good source of several nutrients.

2. Contains anthocyanins

Anthocyanins are a flavonoid group pigment responsible for the purple color of black rice as well as other plant-based foods such as blueberries and purple sweet potatoes. Anthocyanins have also been found to have antioxidant and anticancer effects.

3. May have anti-cancer properties

Anthocyanins from black rice may also have potent anti-cancer properties.

A review of population-based studies revealed that increased intake of anthocyanin-rich foods was associated with a lower risk of colon cancer

Furthermore, a test tube study found that the anthocyanins in black rice reduce the number of human breast cancer cells and slow their growth and spread.

4. May support eye health.

Research shows that black rice contains high levels of lutein and zeaxanthin – (two types of carotenoids related to eye health)

Research shows that these antioxidants can play an important role in protecting against the leading cause of blindness worldwide, aging eye degeneration (AMD). They can also reduce your risk of cataracts and diabetic retinopathy.

5. May help in weight loss.
