About GABA Brown Rice

GABA (gamma aminobutyric acid) is a highly beneficial amino acid found in everyday health foods including peaches, green snap beans, and of course rice. Increasing our GABA intake has big health benefits including lower anxiety, deeper sleep, lower blood pressure, and improved cardiovascular functioning. What is considered “GABA Rice”? While GABA is naturally found in rice, U.S. rice growers are able to use a special rice sprouting process that results in higher than average germination rate to produce GABA abundant rice with a richer nutrient profile in comparison to other rice varieties. This sprouted rice is available as both white and whole grain. Sprouted brown rice has four times the GABA content of regular brown rice, and over ten times the GABA of white rice! U.S.-grown rice is known for its high-quality and limited food miles. This local and sustainable crop is 100% GMO-free and grown exclusively on family farms!
