Himalayan Red Rice is minimally processed, retaining the same whole-grain health benefits of brown rice, but with a beautiful red pigment and unique flavor profile. It is high in fiber, complex carbohydrates, B vitamins and minerals, particularly iron, zinc, potassium, magnesium, manganese and phosphorus. It gets its color from anthocyanins and proanthocyanins in the rice's bran. These plant pigments, thought to be high in antioxidants, give some plants a red or purple color. In studies, these pigments have shown promise in reducing cholesterol as well as regulating hyperglycemia in diabetics
