About Organic Black Rice
Black rice is similar to brown rice and is rich in fibre and protein. The dark colour means that it is packed full of vitamins and nutrients including anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are present in rich coloured foods such as black rice, raspberries, blueberries and purple broccoli.
