FAQ
How healthy is black rice?
Black rice, also known as chak hao, is a native rice variety from Manipur. It is the healthiest of all rice varieties. It is beneficial for diabetic patients because it has a low glycemic index, which means it slowly increases the sugar level in the body. Furthermore, it is rich in antioxidants and high in protein, fibre, and essential minerals, which help reduce cholesterol levels and lower the risk of high blood pressure.
Is black rice healthier than white rice?
Black rice, which is also known as forbidden rice, is healthier than white rice. This is because in the milling process of white rice, the husk, bran, and germ are removed, thus stripping away the protein, fibre and other essential nutrients of white rice. Whereas in the milling process of the black rice fibre and vitamin-rich outer layer (bran) and its nutritious underlying fatty layer are not removed. Therefore, black rice has more protein, fibre and vitamin E antioxidants as compared to white rice.
