What it is

Whole brown rice is a type of rice that has had only the outermost layer, the hull, removed. Unlike white rice, it retains its bran and germ, which are rich in nutrients. It is a whole grain derived from the rice plant.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use whole brown rice as a primary ingredient to add texture, flavor, and nutritional value to products. It is commonly found in snack foods like chips and crackers, as well as in frozen dinners and entrees, serving as a source of whole grains.

Health notes

Whole brown rice is a whole food and is generally recognized as safe for consumption. It is a good source of dietary fiber, B vitamins, and minerals. The FDA considers whole grains, including brown rice, to be part of a healthy diet. There are no specific regulatory evaluations by JECFA or EFSA for whole brown rice as a food additive.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Rice is naturally gluten-free.
