Vitamin in Rice
Rice naturally is full of vitamins and minerals. When rice is processed into white rice, this nutritional value is lost. To bring back the important nutrients, our white rice is enriched with Vitamin B1, Vitamin B3, and Iron.
Vitamin B1 (Thiamine)
Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) helps the body converts carbohydrates into energy and aids the heart, muscles, and nervous system to function properly. Thiamin also plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy cardiovascular system and also helps the body metabolize fats and protein. Vitamin B1 is found in many foods including yeast, cereal grains, brown rice, beans, nuts, green vegetables, and meat.Vitamin B3 (Niacin)
Vitamin B3 (Niacin) is important for metabolize food and provide energy for the body and helps the digestive system, skin, and nerves to function. Niacin is very effective at correcting high cholesterol and preventing or reversing heart disease. Niacin is found in foods with high protein content, such as meat, eggs, and peanuts. It can also be found in milk, mushrooms, and greens. Niacin is added to "enriched" breads and cereals.Iron
Iron is a mineral needed by our bodies. Iron is a part of all cells and does many things in our bodies. Iron helps produce hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to your body’s tissues. Iron is also necessary for proper muscle and organ function, and it fills our bodies with energy. The best source of iron is red meat, liver, fish, eggs, beans and leafy green vegetables, like spinach, broccoli and lettuce.
