Low in sugar but rich in vigorous fiber and plant complex, the black rice is a super food that enable you fight heart ailment and cancer. Louisiana State University specialists studied models of fiber from black rice developed in the southern part of the United States. They discovered that black rice contain augmented intensities of anthocyanin antioxidants, which give the dark coloration of various vegetables and fruits like red peppers and blueberries. It is due to anthocyanin that black rice is black. Specialists imply that the anthocyanin, which clear up dangerous molecules, can aid defend arteries and avert the DNA harm that results to cancer. According to food specialist, Dr. Zhimin Xu, a serving of black rice boasts more health upholding anthocyanin antioxidants than those found in a serving of blueberries, but with a reduced amount of sugar, and greater fiber and vitamin E antioxidants. Dr. Xu said that black rice fiber can be used as a cost-effective way of consuming of antioxidants. Hundreds of years ago, black rice was tagged as ‘Forbidden Rice’ in olden China since only those belonging in the upper class were acceptable to eat it. At present, black rice is principally used in Asia for food embellishment, sushi, desserts and noodles. According to Dr. Xu, food producers could probably utilize black rice fiber or fiber extracts in formulating beverages, breakfast cereals, biscuits, cakes and in a sense , making processed foods a lot healthier. When rice is manufactured, millers eradicate the external layers of the granules to create brown rice or finer white rice—the type most commonly bought in the West. Brown rice is deemed to be a much healthier alternative since it contains richer quantities of vitamin E compounds and antioxidants. Dr. Xu, on the other hand, said that assortments of rice that are either black or purple are much healthier. Moreover, black rice can likewise be utilized to produce healthier and organic dyes. Researches connected several non-natural dyes to cancer and behavioural changes in children. British Heart Foundation’s senior dietician, Victoria Taylor said that in actuality, it is improbable that there is a particular food that can lower the risk of heart ailment. She stressed that healthy eating is equated with having a generally balanced diet.

Crna riža - supernamirnica koju je Zapad previdio Nekada 'Zabranjena riža' danas ima sasvim drugačiji status zahvaljujući stručnjacima koji su otkrili da obiluje antioksidantima, vlaknima i vitaminom E Crna riža u Kini ima status gotov svete hrane, dok ju je Zapad na neki način previdio. Šteta, jer znanstvenici tvrde da bi ta namirnica mogla biti novi član grupe koja nosi naziv superhrana. Crna riža ima malo šećera, ali je prepuna vlakana i biljnih tvari koje su dobre za srčane bolesti i razne vrste raka. Tim stručnjaka sa LSU-a (Louisiana State University) analizirao je uzorke mekinja crne riže uzgojene na jugu SAD-a i pronašao ogromne količine u vodi topivih antioksidanata antocijanina. Oni su zaslužni za pigmentaciju raznog voća i povrća poput borovnica i crvenih paprika. Dakle, oni crnu rižu čine crnom, da se tako izrazimo. >> Uzgojena riža koju nije potrebno kuhati Ovi antioksidanti čiste štetne molekule iz tijela, štite arterije i sprječavaju oštećenja DNK koja vode do pojave raka. Zhimin Xu, inače stručnjak za hranu, kaže da u samo jednoj žlici crne riže ima više antocijanina nego u žlici borovnica, ali s manje šećera i više vlakana i vitamina E. Logika je jasna - poznato je da su borovnice iznimno zdrave i ujedno vrlo popularne za jelo pa onda nema razloga da isto ne bude i s crnom rižom. Inače, prije nekoliko stoljeća ova je namirnica nosila nadimak „Zabranjena riža" jer su je smjeli jesti samo pripadnici plemstva. Danas joj je najveća uporaba kod ukrašavanja azijskih jela, sushija i raznih deserta. Prilikom obrade riže mlinari skidaju vanjsku sloj zrna kako bi dobili smeđu ili rafiniranu bijelu rižu koju konzumiramo i mi pored ostatka zapadnoga svijeta. Navodno je smeđa riža bolja od bijele jer sadrži više vitamina E i antioksidanata. Ali dr. Xu uvjerava da je riža crnoga i ljubičastoga pigmenta najbolja. Pored svega navedenog crna riža bi se mogla iskoristiti i u vidu zdravih prirodnih bojila. Nemali je broj istraživanja koja su pokazala da su umjetna bojila povezana s nastankom raka i problemima u ponašanju djece. Detalji istraživanja predstavljeni su danas na 240. Nacionalnom skupu Američkog kemijskog društva u Bostonu. Ipak, to ne znači da će samo jedna namirnica činiti čuda. Uravnotežena prehrana je ključ. A ubacivanje kojeg zrna crne riže u nju može vam samo koristiti.
