2. RICE
Scientific name: Oryza sativa
Monocot plant.
Third largest grown crop after sugarcane and
maize.

3. TYPES OF RICE
Rice
Brown
Rice
White
Rice

4. BROWN RICE
Unpolished whole grain that is produced by
removing only the husk.
Shelf life: 6 months, because the essential oil in
brown rice is susceptible to oxidation, making it
rancid.

14. Brown Rice and CVD
Hypercholesterolemic effects of GBR: Upregulation of of
apolipoprotein A1 and LDL receptor genes.
Acylated steryl glycoside, gamma amino butyric acid (GABA),
oryzanol and phenolic extracts of GBR contribute to the
nutrigenomic regulations of these genes.
Gamma-aminobutyric acid, or GABA, is a neurotransmitter that
sends chemical messages through the brain and the nervous
system, and is involved in regulating communication between brain
cells.

Chemopreventive Agent
Study done on mice:
Oryzanol suppressed the activation of Endoplasmic
Reticulum stress-responsive cis-acting elements.
Oryzanol acts as a chemical chaperone in viable cells.

 Total Subjects: 28 subjects .
 2 Groups: 14- Meals with WR, 14- Meals with BR for first 8 weeks, then
vice versa.
 On 1st and 14th day: Blood samples were collected after 1, 2 and 4 hours
of meal ingestion.
 Result:
 1) ↓ postprandial blood glucose levels by α-glycosidase inhibitors.
 2) ↑postprandial endothelial function in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.

23. CONCLUSION
Nutritious.
Tasty.
Low on calories; binge eat rice guilt-free.
Cooked like normal rice.
Dietary bran has excellent chemopreventive properties, which can
prevent proliferation and division of cancer cells.
Brown Rice is a very good antioxidant, and help delay ageing.
Further studies on the bioavailability, metabolism, and tissue
disposition of the rice bran bioactive components in humans are
needed.
