In the past, most antioxidants were found in colorful fruits and vegetables. This time, scientists found antioxidants in brown rice, and the CAF content was five times higher than other antioxidants. This study was published in the International Journal of Molecular Science.

It is a good source of carbohydrates and provides a variety of vitamins, minerals, and fiber that can help regulate blood sugar levels, improve digestion and promote satiety. At the same time, brown rice is an essential source of minerals such as magnesium, selenium, and manganese.
