More than one-third of the world population consume rice as main food, together with wheat and corn. Asia, especially North-East region, is one of the main rice-producing and -consuming area.
Compared with wheat or corn, rice is a whole food with rich nutrients. However, the process of polishing and distribution causes some problems. In particular, white rice is regarded as the sources one of the most serious health risks, like diabetes, high blood pressure, atopy, and so on. Because white rice is devoid of an embryo bud and rice bran, which part of rice contains over 95 per cent of its various nutrients. Without a bud and bran, white rice is nothing but a chunk of carbohydrates, a potential source of human obesity.
In this context, recently, brown rice has been regarded as an alternative to white rice. However, though eating
brown rice helps people keep healthy, brown rice has digestion problem and difficulty in cooking and eating.
Compared with white rice, brown rice is less delicious, as well.
Thus, in 2012, BaroTech Inc. developed and launched the SunshineMom, a new brand of the milling-polishing machine that can produce soft brown rice, both fully nutrient and delicious. The launch of this new rice-milling-polishing equipment gives consumers a perfect chance to enjoy the whole rice without losing nutrients and superb taste.
Brown Rice & White Rice (from Wikipedia)
Brown rice and white rice have similar amounts of calories and carbohydrates. The main differences between the two forms of rice lie in processing and nutritional content.
When only the outermost layer of a grain of rice (the husk) is removed, brown rice is produced. To produce white rice, the next layers underneath the husk (the bran layer and the germ) are removed, leaving mostly the starchy endosperm.
Several vitamins and dietary minerals are lost in this removal and the subsequent polishing process. A part of these missing nutrients, such as vitamin B1, vitamin B3, and iron are sometimes added back into the white rice making it "enriched", as food suppliers in the US are required to do by the Food and Drug Administration.
One mineral not added back into white rice is magnesium; one cup (195 g) of cooked long grain brown rice contains 84 mg of magnesium while one cup of white rice contains 19 mg.
When the bran layer is removed to make white rice, the oil in the bran is also removed. Rice bran oil may help lower LDL cholesterol.
Among other key sources of nutrition lost are dietary fiber and small amounts of fatty acids.
