Black rice is a type of rice that is grown in a very limited number of countries in the world and is commonly referred to as Forbidden Rice. This name comes from the fact that it was once highly restricted, meaning that only royalty was allowed to eat it, due to its scarcity. Black rice has been an important cultural element for thousands of years and remains a crop that is grown in rather limited supply. That being said, research on black rice has shown that it has a more impressive nutrient profile than any other type of rice. Although it was once limited to the halls of power in certain Asian countries, black rice is now available in the United States, Australia, and throughout Europe, although you may pay a premium for it.
The most important health benefits of black rice include its effects on heart health, digestion, diabetes, weight loss, and chronic disease, among others.
