Beneficial ingredients
Organic whole grain brown rice
Brown rice is low-fat, low-sodium (these rice cakes are actually sodium and fat-free), and low on the glycemic index (GI). High GI foods are digested quickly and usually cause blood glucose levels to shoot up, while lower GI foods are absorbed and processed slower and cause a more gradual rise in overall glucose levels. Brown rice also contains niacin, also known as vitamin B3, which can help lower cholesterol, and selenium, which your body uses to make antioxidants. Last, and certainly not least, brown rice is full of manganese, which can help the body’s proper enzyme functioning and nutrient absorption.
Guilt and gluten-free
