Grain width in mm : 2,0/2,85
Thickness in mm : 3,0/3,30
It releases little starch during cooking, so it is not sticky.
Also marketed in the full version, less refined.
Rice is a grass and one of the most common and oldest foods. Just think that its history dates back 7,000 years.

It does not contain beta carotene (provitamin A) and has a very low iron and zinc content (2).
In rice bran there are bioactive phytochemicals that exert protective actions against cancer that involve the metabolism of the host and the intestinal microbiome. A diet based on rice bran has shown positive effects in reducing the risk of colon cancer (3).
