What it is

Brown rice protein is a plant-based protein powder made from brown rice. The rice is milled, and then the protein is separated from the carbohydrates and fiber through a wet or dry processing method. The resulting powder is a source of amino acids, the building blocks of protein.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add brown rice protein to boost the protein content of foods. It is often used in plant-based protein powders, bars, and shakes. It can also be found in some baked goods and snacks seeking to offer a higher protein profile.

Health notes

Brown rice protein is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of protein, which is an essential nutrient. Regulatory bodies like JECFA have evaluated protein sources, and it is considered safe when consumed as part of a balanced diet. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical dietary intake.

Allergen info

Brown rice protein is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It is also gluten-free.
