Basmati Rice Whole Grain – Gluten-free (Organic)

Authentic Basmati rice is one of the types of rice that are most appreciated in the world (it is called “fragrant rice” in India). It is an extra long grain rice grown in the Punjab on the fertile foothills of the Himalaya Mountains. Gluten-free and low in fat, basmati rice contains all eight essential amino acids, folic acid, is very low in sodium, and has no cholesterol. It has a low to medium glycemic index, meaning that energy is released at a slower, steadier rate leading to a more balanced level of energy.

This delicious Lima Basmati rice cooks very easily without sticking.

Why should you choose wholegrain products?

The carbohydrates in grains are your body’s key source of energy, which is why wholegrain cereals make up a key ingredient of our products. We prefer whole or split grain cereals because the nutritious substances of the germ, the bran and the endosperm of the grain are retained. Whole or split grains contain a wealth of nutrients:

∙ Minerals: iron, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, etc.
∙ Vitamins B and E
∙ Proteins
∙ Unsaturated fatty acids
∙ Essential amino acids
∙ Fibre

Food that is rich in fibre is critical to proper intestinal transit, which in turn has a positive impact on our overall health. Unrefined vegetable nutrients – especially cereals – are an important source of fibre. That is also why Lima opts for food products that are not or are hardly refined.
