Did You Know?
• Rice is the primary dietary staple for more than half of the world’s population.
• U.S. grown rice is the standard for excellence and accounts for nearly 88% of
the rice consumed in America. It is grown and harvested by local farmers in
five south-central states and California.
• Rice contains no sodium, cholesterol, trans fats or gluten, and has only a trace
of fat. One half-cup of rice contains about 100 calories.
• Research shows that people who eat rice have healthier diets than non-rice
eaters and eat more like the
U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans
recommendations.
• Whole grains like brown rice help reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as
heart disease, diabetes and certain cancers, and aid in weight management.
• Brown rice is a 100% whole grain. One cup of whole grain brown rice provides
two of the three recommended daily servings of whole grains.
• Eating rice triggers the production of serotonin in the brain, a chemical that
helps regulate and improve mood.
• September is National Rice Month - promoting awareness of the versatility and
the value of U.S. grown rice.
