Black rice refers to a variety of rice varieties from the Oryza sativa species, some of which are glutinous rice. In ancient China, black rice was regarded as ‘Forbidden Rice,’ since only the upper classes could afford to consume it.

In comparison to other varieties, black rice has more fiber and protein than red, brown, or white rice. This, combined with its high level of ANTHOCYANINS, makes it a nutritional powerhouse.
