Description
Brown rice is a type of whole grain rice known for its reddish-brown color, which comes from its natural pigment called anthocyanin—a powerful antioxidant. Unlike white rice, brown rice is unpolished or partially polished, meaning it retains its bran layer, making it more nutritious and rich in fiber.
