Health is Natural
Even though our bodies routinely face assault from environmental toxins, ravages from psychological
stress, and mistreatment from poor eating and sleeping habits, we are miraculously programmed and well
equipped to remain disease free. The best way to support the body’s own defenses is to consume nutrient
dense, whole foods that contain protective nutraceuticals like antioxidants and essential amino acids.
Rediscovering Rice
For centuries, rice has been a staple food, but amazingly,
nobody ever knew how nutritionally powerful it was until a
recent technology unlocked its full nutritional potential.
Now, doctors, scientists and health practitioners around the
world are marveling at the surprising treasures that are
hidden within a tiny seed of rice.
Evidence suggests that rice was cultivated as early as 9000
B.C. Today it is the most consumed cereal grain and a
common staple for most households. To half the world’s
population, rice is life.
It provides more than one fifth of the calories currently consumed by humans and world production
exceeds 600 million tons per year. Rice has always been power-packed with protein, vitamins, minerals,
phytonutrients, and more than 120 antioxidants, cofactors and catalysts. But up until recently, only a tiny
fraction of its nutritional value was available for consumption because most of the nutrients were routinely
destroyed or discarded during the milling process.
When rice seeds are milled, the first step removes the outer hull,
resulting in what is commonly known as “brown rice.” The next
step removes the bran and germ from the kernel, leaving “white
rice.” This step strips most of the nutritional value from rice
because although the germ and bran comprise only 8% of the
kernel, they contain 65% of the nutrients. For centuries, white
polished rice (which only provides a meager supply of empty
calories) held prestige and cultural importance, while nutritious
brown rice was considered substandard “poor man’s food” or
animal feed.
Once people learned that most of the nutrients are in the bran and
germ, health conscious individuals started eating brown rice.
Some people even consume rice bran as a supplement. But this
still doesn’t yield the full nutritional value of rice!
When rice is removed from its hull, an enzyme called lipase is
released and immediately starts to turn the healthy oils in the rice
bran rancid. Within hours, bran that has been separated from the
kernel becomes unfit for human consumption and is discarded or fed to farm animals. Untreated whole
brown rice (with the bran intact) turns rancid very rapidly.
Rancid foods are carcinogenic (they can increase your chance of getting cancer), so to avoid this problem,
manufacturers starting treating rice. They halt the activity of the lipase enzyme by using chemicals,
microwave heat and other invasive methods. Unfortunately, these methods damage valuable, heat-sensitive
Page 4 of 23
phytonutrients. The resulting rice bran and brown rice products have long shelf lives, but they are not
nutrient rich.
One company, (Nutracea USA, www.nutracea.com) recently discovered and developed a proprietary nonchemical process that stabilizes rice bran without destroying or degrading its nutritional profile. Their
patented method selectively deactivates rice's lipase enzyme without damaging heat-sensitive nutrients.
The result is a microbiologically safe rice bran with higher levels of micronutrients and antioxidants than
any other rice product. It contains quality hypoallergenic protein and healthy fiber that is easily tolerated
and is gluten and lactose-free, so it can be safely consumed by children, adults, and the elderly every day.
Properly stabilized rice bran is one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet!
Stabilized rice bran is literally brimming with nutrients! It contains protein (amino acids), vitamins,
minerals, phytonutrients, Omegas 3, 6 and 9, plus more than 120 known antioxidants, cofactors and
catalysts, including Tocotrienols, CoQ10, Alpha Lipoic Acid, IP6, and the rare but powerful Gamma
Oryzanol. We’ll discuss the nutritional content of stabilized rice bran in more detail, but first, let’s look at
what makes something a SUPERFOOD!
Superfoods contain high concentrations of naturally occurring nutrients — preferably with a high
nutrition per calorie and per dollar ratio. Well known superfoods include spirulina, chlorella, green
tea, garlic, berries, cruciferous vegetables, sprouts, and properly fermented fruits and vegetables.
The nutrients must be naturally occurring!
Man Versus Mother Nature
It seems like every day a new nutrient is “discovered” by scientists and within months, it is added to
nutritional formulas. Of course the nutrient existed all along. Scientists just didn’t
know about it! For millions of years, life has developed from natural food sources
that contain not only vital nutrients, but also the co-factors and catalysts necessary
for their assimilation. It will probably take centuries for scientists to completely
understand and duplicate the nutrient complexity of Mother Nature’s handicraft.
How much money do you think the resulting pill will cost? Research at Cornell
University found that many naturally occurring cancer preventing substances
cannot be duplicated by vitamin supplements.
A recent article in the Townsend Letter for Doctors and Patients explained,
“Each vitamin is actually a group of chemically related compounds. By separating the vitamin ‘group’
into single, incomplete vitamin portions, the vitamin is then converted from a physiological biochemical
active micronutrient into a disabled, debilitated chemical of
little or no value to living cells.”
Common sense (and science) tells us that the best way to get
our vitamins is to consume nutritious whole foods. Whole
foods contain nutrients PLUS all of the necessary cofactors and
catalysts to help them function. Nutrients that have been
isolated and synthesized like pharmaceuticals are separated
Page 5 of 23
from these cofactors and catalysts so the body has a harder time assimilating them. Scientists and health
practitioners agree that nutritional supplements should come from food or food concentrates where vitamin
complexes are intact and the nutrients retain their functional integrity. Unfortunately, most people don’t
consume enough healthy food to supply the necessary doses of nutrients they need daily.
Chances are less than 1 in 100 that your current diet is providing you with RDA levels of
every necessary nutrient!
Now, thanks to an intelligent breakthrough in stabilization technology, rice bran can help to bridge this
gap. Let’s look at the plethora of benefits attributed to the nutrients in stabilized rice bran.
How To Consume Stabilized Rice Bran
There are many ways to incorporate stabilized rice bran into your diet. Our stabilized rice
bran is available in 240g canisters (20 servings) as an “extra fine” milled product with a
texture akin to coarse milled flour. It’s easily incorporated into meals. For serving
suggestions Click Here .
A serving is 12g (2 heaped teaspoons) consumed once or twice daily.
Stop Free Radical Damage
Free radicals are a natural by-product of metabolism in the body, but excess numbers of
them are created when the body is subjected to things like toxins, pesticides, cigarette
smoke, stress, illness, or physical exhaustion.
A free radical is a highly unstable molecule or atom with an unpaired electron. In order to regain molecular
stability, free radicals attack other molecules and steal electrons. When attacked molecules lose electrons,
they also become unstable and the damage continues in a downward spiral of destruction. Free radicals
play a fundamental role in disease and aging because they can damage any type of cell, including brain
cells and DNA.
Free radical damage accumulates and increases with age. It has been implicated as a
causal factor in almost every health disorder and disease including: Acne, Alzheimer’s,
Arthritis, Cancer, Chronic Inflammation, Heart Disease, Infertility, Parkinson’s,
Premature Aging, and Stroke.
Stabilized rice bran contains over 120 antioxidants cofactors and catalysts
that can protect your cells from being damaged by free radicals.
Antioxidants are like cellular bodyguards. They “take the bullet” when a
cell is attacked so cellular damage is avoided. Vitamins C and E are well
known defenders, but scientists have discovered even more potent
antioxidants such as CoQ10, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Oligomeric
Proanthocyanidins (OPCs), SOD, Tocopherols & Tocotrienols (TOCOLS),
IP6, Glutathione, Carotenoids, Selenium, Phytosterols, Gamma Oryzanol,
Lutein and Lycopene. Stabilized rice bran contains all of these and more!
Antioxidants act as cellular bodyguards
Page 6 of 23
Antioxidants can work independently, but they work better in teams.
Having a broader spectrum offers more complete protection because
each antioxidant works differently and joint
effort creates synergy. Some antioxidants even resuscitate one
another when they get wiped out by free radicals. Stabilized rice
bran contains all of these synergistic “battle buddies”.
According to antioxidant expert, Dr. Lester Packer, “literally
thousands of studies have confirmed that antioxidants can help
prevent numerous diseases and will not only enhance life, but in all
probability extend life.”
The research on antioxidants has actually yielded mixed results. If free radicals run amok, the result can be
devastation and disease, but if all free radicals are wiped out, the immune system can’t use their destructive
force to wipe out foreign invaders. There needs to be an intelligent balance.
Since we don’t fully understand how antioxidants and free radicals dance together, the best solution,
according to Barry Halliwell and other scientists, is to stick with eating healthy foods that contain a broad
spectrum of naturally occurring antioxidants and their cofactors because the body knows exactly what to do
with them and how to discard them.
Stabilized rice bran was recently found to have the highest ORAC value (Oxygen Radical Absorbency
Capacity) when compared to 28 other well known high antioxidant fruits, nuts and vegetables.
It was also shown to have the highest lipophilic to total ORAC value (even higher than avocado!). This is
biologically significant because fat-soluble antioxidants (with a high lipophilic score) can stay in the body
longer than water-soluble antioxidants and can penetrate cell membranes more easily.
Page 7 of 23
Stabilized rice bran has an impressive spectrum of both fat-soluble and water-soluble antioxidants so it
protects your cells inside and out. All of its antioxidants come with their synergistic cofactors and catalysts,
so it offers superior defense against cancer and other degenerative diseases.
One of the most powerful antioxidants in stabilized rice bran is Alpha Lipoic Acid which is both water and
fat soluble. It can penetrate and protect every cell of the body and it naturally boosts the body’s production
of Glutathione— a major cellular antioxidant. Studies have shown that Alpha Lipoic Acid definitely
protects red blood cells and fatty acids from oxidative damage and protects cells from UVA damage.
Normalize Blood Sugar
More than 180 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes. Over a million people a year will die from
it.
US Patent # 6,303,586 B1 2001 was issued for stabilized rice bran as a “Supportive Therapy for Diabetes,
Hyperglycemia, and Hypoglycemia” and US Patent #6,350,473 B1. 2002 was issued for stabilized rice
bran as a “Method For Controlling Serum Glucose” because it was shown to reduce blood glucose levels,
glycosylated hemoglobin levels and improves insulin synthesis in Type I and Type II diabetic subjects.
Taking 2 daily doses of stabilized rice bran for 8 weeks was shown to reduce fasting serum glucose by
10-33%. Other studies confirmed that stabilized rice bran positively controls and manages blood glucose
levels in diabetes mellitus.
B Complex Vitamins, Gamma Oryzanol, Protein, Complex Carbohydrates, Chromium, Polysaccharides,
Hemicelluloses, Fat, Fiber, Tocopherols, Tocotrienols and Antioxidants are all found in stabilized rice bran
and are known to play a significantly positive role in glucose metabolism.
This is not only good news for diabetics, but for anyone struggling with Hypoglycemia, Hyperglycemia,
Insulin Resistance or Syndrome X. Many people report that consuming stabilized rice bran reduces sugar
cravings, and the mood swings that come from raising and lowering blood sugar through dietary habits.

Lower Cholesterol & Prevent Heart Disease
Hundreds of millions of people have high cholesterol, increasing their risk of developing cardiovascular
diseases such as Arteriosclerosis, Atherosclerosis, Stroke, and Heart Attack. Cardiovascular disease is the
number one killer in the U.S., Australia, India and Malaysia and it is rapidly increasing throughout Asia.
More than 17 million people die each year from cardiovascular disease. People with fat around their waists
have the greatest risk.
Lowering your cholesterol can lower your chances of dying from heart disease and stroke, but the
cholesterol-lowering drugs (statins) that doctors prescribe can have dangerous side effects. A safer, more
natural way to lower cholesterol is to modify your diet with products like stabilized rice bran. Studies have
shown that fiber, fatty acids and nutrients in stabilized rice bran are effective at lowering serum cholesterol
and triglycerides.
3 US patents (#6,126,943, #6,558,714 B2, & #6,733,799 B2) have been awarded for stabilized rice bran as
an effective "Method for Treating Hypercholesterolemia, Hyperlipidemia, and Atherosclerosis."
Several of the nutrients found in stabilized rice bran, such as Fiber,, Carotenoids, Phytosterols, Omega 3
and Inositol Hexaphosphate (IP6), are known to play an important role in anti-platelet aggregating, and
lowering cholesterol and triglyceride levels. These and other synergistic mechanisms have been shown to:
lower LDL and increase HDL; decrease fat and cholesterol absorption; increase excretion of fat,
cholesterol and bile acids; reduce blood pressure; reduce triglycerides; inhibit platelet aggregation; inhibit
formation of aortic streaks; increase competitive binding by plant sterols; inhibit HMG CoA reductase; and
inhibit phopholipase A2, thromboxane B4 and prostacyclin production. CoQ10 has been shown to have
positive effects on both blood pressure and cholesterol and to improve energy in the heart muscles. It also
helps to stabilize palpitations.
All of these functions work together to reduce your chances of becoming a stroke or heart attack victim.
Boost Immunity to Prevent Degenerative Disease & Premature
Aging
Abnormal cells, bacteria, and viruses proliferate in
our bodies all the time, but normally the immune
system annihilates them before they have a chance to
develop into illness, disease or cancer.
The immune system is a complex network
coordinating the activities that protect us from
harmful microbial invaders (bacteria, viruses, fungi
and parasites) and stop abnormal cell proliferation.
This system protects us from all types of illness and
disease. But it can be weakened by nutritional
deficiencies, prolonged illness and inflammation, and
by the carcinogens, dangerous metals, poisons, toxins
and stress we are exposed to every day.
When a person has a weakened immune system, even a simple cold or flu can escalate and become a lifethreatening illness. Having a strong immune system is the best defense against illness and disease.
Nutritionally strengthening and supporting the immune system is essential, especially after the age of 50
because the body’s natural defenses decline with age.
Page 9 of 23
Sterols and Sterolins (found in plants) are great immune supporters. They help the immune system stop
cancer, kill bacteria, destroy viruses and slow down the aging process. They have also been shown to keep
patients infected with the HIV virus from developing AIDS.
Stabilized rice bran has high concentrations of
Sterolins and Phytosterols that have
demonstrated potent antiviral and antibacterial effects.
Stabilized rice bran also contains the
following immune system helpers:
•
•
•
•
•
Polysaccharides (known to improve immune function)
Gamma Oryzanol and other phytonutrients that increase immune response and reduce proinflammatory cytokines
Omegas 3, 6 & 9 fatty acids and Tocols that have been shown to suppress auto anti-DNA antibodies
CoQ10 which is a known immune booster routinely recommended as part of the treatment for
people suffering from: Cardiovascular Disease, Parkinson's Disease, Muscular Dystrophy, Cancer,
Diabetes Mellitus, Infertility, AIDS, Asthma, Thyroid Disorders, and Periodontal Disease
Alpha Lipoic Acid which is extremely effective against oxidative stress and free radical destruction.
Lower Cancer Risk
Cancer is now the leading cause of death globally. It is estimated that cancer will kill 84 million people in
the next ten years. While the causes of cancer are complex, it is well known that certain things can lower
the risk of getting it. The most important recommendations are to avoid toxins and eat healthy foods.
Stabilized rice bran has many nutrients that are known to help protect against cancer.
Studies have shown that Sterol/Sterolins and Omegas 3, 6 & 9 can increase natural killer (NK) cell activity
and act as a potent immunomodulator for the treatment and restoration of immune dysfunction.
Gamma Oryzanol (Ferulic acid) is known to be anti-mutagenic. Inositol, IP6, Polyphenols, Fiber,
Tocotrienols and Antioxidants are all known to be anti-carcinogenic. Polyphenols and Tocotrienols have
been shown to inhibit Phase 1 microsomal enzymes, and the lipoprotein fraction of stabilized rice bran has
been shown to inhibit abnormal cell proliferation.
Numerous epidemiologic studies reported an association between high fiber intake and reduced incidence
of colon cancer and breast cancer. A 1992 study by researchers at Harvard Medical School found that men
who consumed only 12 grams of fiber a day were twice as likely to develop precancerous colon changes as
men whose daily fiber intake was about 30 grams. Scientists theorize that insoluble fiber adds bulk to stool,
which in turn dilutes carcinogens and speeds their transit through the lower intestines and out of the body.
12 studies found a link between high fiber intake and reduced risk of breast cancer. In the early stages,
some breast tumors are stimulated by estrogen circulating in the bloodstream. Scientists believe that fiber
may hamper the growth of these tumors by binding with estrogen in the intestine, preventing it from being
reabsorbed into the bloodstream.
IP6 has been shown to exhibit significant anti-cancer activity and to inhibit tumor cell growth in colon,
intestinal, and liver cancers.
Carotenoids (including the Alpha Carotene, Beta Carotene, Lutein, Lycopene, Zeaxanthin and
Precryptoxanthin/Cryptoxanthin found in stabilized rice bran) offer powerful protection against many
different types of cancer.
Lycopene in particular has been associated with lower rates of prostate cancer.
Page 10 of 23
Pangamic Acid (B15) has shown to have a unique ability to release a type of cyanide only at cancer sites,
thereby destroying cancer cells while at the same time, nourishing non-cancerous tissue.
Improve Gastrointestinal Health
Some people say “you are what you eat”. But everything you eat doesn’t get digested, assimilated and
utilized. You are what gets to your cells! Intestinal health helps to ensure that the nutrition you consume
actually has a chance to do its job in your body. If your colon is blocked, your pH balance is off, and your
intestines are overrun by harmful bacteria, nutrients can’t get where they need to go.
Fiber is one of the your digestive system’s best allies. Numerous studies have found that diets high in fiber
and low in saturated fat are associated with a reduced risk of certain cancers, diabetes, digestive disorders,
and heart disease.
Doctors and scientists recommend an increase in fiber for disease prevention and treatment of the
following: Heart Disease, Constipation; Cancer (especially of the colon), Hemorrhoids, Diverticulitis,
Hernia, Varicose Veins, Obesity, Diabetes, and Hyperlipidemia. But experts say that most adults only get
about half the fiber they need to prevent type II diabetes, heart disease and other problems.
The suggested minimum intake of fiber is about 14 grams for every 1000 calories consumed. Men need
30-38 grams per day and women need 25-30 grams per day— preferably from whole foods. Most children
today are only getting about 20% of the fiber they need each day. That, along with poor diet, helps to
explain why there is an epidemic of children developing type II diabetes before they reach their teens.
There are two important types of consumable fiber. Soluble fiber forms a gel in the digestive tract and
slows down the digestion of carbohydrates so that sugar is released and absorbed more slowly into the
bloodstream. This is the type of fiber responsible for lowering cholesterol and regulating blood sugar.
Insoluble fiber passes through the intestines intact. It attracts and absorbs water which can speed up bulk
and promote regular bowel movements. It also helps to remove toxic wastes and maintain optimum the pH
needed to maximize digestive function and help prevent colon cancer.
Stabilized rice bran naturally contains both soluble and insoluble fibers. It can help to maintain overall
health and keep bowel movements “regular”. It can offer welcomed relief and health support to people
suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Irritable Bowel Disease (IBD) and has been shown to
naturally improve gut micro flora and to reduce colonic adenomas by 51%.
Lose Fat
Obesity, which is strongly associated with higher health risk and
increased death rate, is rising in every age group in every country and
is considered by the World Health Organization to be a dangerous
“global epidemic” putting tens of millions of people at risk.
One of the reasons bodies hold onto fat is because of the starvation
instinct. If you aren’t getting complete nutrition, your body thinks it is
starving and increases your appetite while holding onto your fat.
Stabilized rice bran gives you a wide spectrum of nutrition that can
help calm this instinct.
Stabilized rice bran also helps with weight management through
mechanisms that regulate blood sugar, detoxify the colon and
metabolize fat.
Gamma Oryzanol has been shown to have a positive effect on blood lipids by burning fat, mobilizing
stored fat and increasing lean body mass.
Page 11 of 23
Alpha Lipoic Acid is called the “Metabolic Antioxidant” because of its ability to assist in the metabolizing
carbohydrates and fat. It is thought to decrease fat storage and aid fat loss through the natural elevation of
glutathione levels and the mediation of insulin and leptin (a hormone that helps regulate body weight and
fat deposition). Stabilized rice bran is also rich in natural magnesium which has been shown to protect
against metabolic syndrome, and improve metabolism.
Detoxify
Environmental pollution has reached alarmingly epidemic
proportions. The environment is thoroughly contaminated by
dangerous chemicals and heavy metals. Billions of pounds of toxic
chemicals are dumped into our air and water every year. Because the
earth is a closed ecosystem, the worst effects can occur thousands of
miles away from the source.
Toxic particles can work their way into our bodies through food, air,
and skin. When you eat, you ingest toxins from pesticides, artificial
colors, flavors and preservatives. When you breathe, you ingest
toxins from pollution. When you touch things, chemical residue
enters your pores. All of these can contribute to respiratory damage,
heart disease and cancer. Most homes are toxic because clothing,
cookware, carpets, furniture and fabrics are routinely coated with
dangerous chemicals. Cleaning products, construction materials,
dental fillings and medical vaccinations all contribute to toxic
overload.
Poisons and heavy metals in the environment don’t necessarily pose
an immediate threat (unless you’re super-sensitive or heavily exposed). The hidden danger comes from
accumulation. It’s not one particular chemical or metal you need to worry about; it’s being constantly
exposed to a myriad of toxins that can build up in the body. When this happens, your natural disposal
systems become overloaded, your organs become affected, and your immune system can get overwhelmed.
All of the following are thought to be caused by or exacerbated by toxins:
Alopecia (hair loss and baldness),
Abnormalities, Gout, Heart Attack,
Accelerated Aging, Alzheimer’s
Heart Disease, Hepatitis, High Blood
Disease, Anemia, Arthritis,
Pressure, Immune System Disorders,
Atherosclerosis, Attention Deficit
Inhibition of Lymphocytes, T-cells, &
Disorder (ADD), Autism, Birth

the Liver, Colitis, Convulsions,
Osteoarthritis, Osteoporosis,
Dementia, Diabetes, Displaced
Parkinson’s Disease, Pneumonia,
Cornea, DNA Damage,
Reproductive Dysfunction, Renal
Encephalopathy (brain disease), Fetal
Toxicity, Spontaneous Abortion,
Distress, Fibromyalgia, Genital
Stroke, and Seizure.
Since it’s virtually impossible to avoid toxins in today’s modern world, it’s critical that we do
everything we can to quickly remove them from our bodies and minimize the damage they can do.
Stabilized rice bran can help in two ways. First of all, the high fiber content helps to remove toxins
through safe and speedy elimination. It also “scrubs” the intestinal walls to get rid of putrefying waste
that can block nutrient absorption and poison your system. Secondly, the potent antioxidants and
Page 12 of 23
nutraceuticals found in stabilized rice bran help to combat the damaging free radicals that toxins
produce. Some of stabilized rice bran’s components are known to be particularly detoxifying.
Research has shown that Alpha Lipoic Acid is good for cleansing the liver of chemical poisons.
German Physicians have been using Alpha Lipoic Acid since the 1960s to treat Diabetic
Polyneuropathy and Liver Cirrhosis. The treatment was later extended to heavy metal intoxication,
toxic mushroom poisoning and oxygen related diseases. Alpha Lipoic Acid is believed to be a good
metal chelator because of its easy absorption into the intracellular environment and its ability to
complex metals that were previously bound to other sulfhydryl proteins. It is known to chelate (bind
and remove) mercury, cadmium, and lead. Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorous and Inositol
Hexaphosphate (IP6) are also known to act as heavy metal chelators.
Improve Liver Function
Besides being a general body detoxifier (which eases the burden on the liver) stabilized rice bran has
nutrients that are specifically helpful to liver function. Inositol, Phosholipids & B Complex Vitamins
are known to detoxify the liver, control liver cirrhosis and improve liver cell regeneration.
Tocotrienols, Gamma Oryzanol, and other antioxidants also play a protective role in the liver.
Increase Energy
One of the most common effects people report after taking stabilized rice bran for a few days or
weeks, is increased energy. This is most likely due to its nutrient density and the presence of energy
boosting phytonutrients like CoQ10, Alpha Lipoic Acid, and B vitamins including Pangamic Acid.
CoQ10 is a compound found naturally in virtually every cell of the human body, but supplies dwindle
as we age. It is a vital for energy metabolism and electron transport in the mitochondria and it serves
as an effective intercellular antioxidant. CoQ10 improves energy in the heart muscles, It provides the
body with the energy it needs to rebuild and repair, remove cellular waste and toxins, and defend itself
from infections.
Alpha Lipoic Acid is also crucial for energy production in the cells. It is routinely used by athletes to
increase energy and improve glycogen storage in the muscles. Pangamic Acid (B15) has been found to
increase oxygen in the cells and is used to increase the endurance, stamina and speed of Russian
athletes.
Reduce Headaches & Improve Mental Function
Stabilized rice bran has a myriad of nutrients that can help to keep you pain-free and performing at
your best even under stress.CoQ10 has been shown to reduce migraine
headaches by 50%, reduce fatigue, and alleviate mental tiredness. Alpha
Lipoic Acid strengthens memory and helps prevent brain aging. The B
vitamin family is known to reduce mental fatigue, calm the nervous
system, and alleviate stress. Potassium helps mental function by sending
oxygen to the brain. Phosphatidylserine has been shown to improve
memory, concentration and focus. Detoxification helps with every aspect
of health. When you get rid of toxins, everything works better—
including mental function. Stabilized rice bran offers a perfect
combination of detoxifying agents and brain boosters.

Reduce Symptoms of Menopause
Gamma Oryzanol has been shown to reduce the occurrence
of hot flashes, night sweats and other climacteric
complaints of menopause by 85%!
Tocotrienols, CoQ10, Omegas 3 & 6, and Phytosterols all
help to ease menopausal symptoms.
Decrease Kidney Stones
Kidney stones are one of the most common disorders of the urinary tract. They develop when crystals
build up in the urine. Large stones can block urine flow and cause extreme pain!
The most common kidney stones are made mostly of calcium, but the problem is not thought to be
caused by calcium in the diet. In fact, two studies at Harvard University found that a diet high in
calcium-rich foods actually lowered the risk of developing kidney stones in both men and women.
Scientists now know that the problem isn’t having calcium in the body, it’s having calcium that makes
stones instead of bones!
Vitamin K has been shown to play an important role in making sure that the calcium in your body does
more good than harm. It moves calcium out of the bloodstream and gets it into your bones. Inositol
Hexaphosphate (IP6) has been shown to inhibit urinary calcium oxalate crystallization.
Build Bones & Reduce Osteoporosis Risk
Stabilized rice bran contains naturally occurring calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals that are
essential for building strong bones.
Improve Eyesight
Stabilized rice bran contains both Lutein and Zeaxanthin which have been associated with improved
vision and a decreased risk of macular degeneration and cataracts. Some studies have also shown that
in some cases, Lutein has even helped reverse the damage caused by the macular degeneration.
Essential fatty acids Omegas 3, 6, & 9 and Folic Acid are also known to promote eye health.
Enhance Natural Beauty
The most beautiful bodies “radiate from within.” You literally ARE
what you eat! If you want eyes that sparkle and youthful glowing
skin, the best beauty enhancer is good water and good nutrition!
Stabilized rice bran contains a full spectrum of beauty enhancing
nutrients including CoQ10, E vitamins, and B vitamins including
Biotin, which are well known for creating beauty from within. It
also contains GABA (Gamma Amino Butyric Acid) and Squalene
which are also essential for shining skin and healthy hair growth.
The high antioxidant profile and rich nutrient density of stabilized
rice bran make it a great food for daily detoxification. When toxins
are eliminated, your skin stays clear and vibrant rather than clogged, pimply, or dull.

Bottom Line Summary
Thanks to a breakthrough technology that stabilizes rice bran without chemicals or high heat, mankind
can now benefit from an affordable, energy dense, easily digested PERFECT WHOLE FOOD!
Stabilized rice bran naturally contains protein, vitamins, minerals, complex carbohydrates,
phytonutrients, phospholipids, essential fatty acids, and more than 120 antioxidants, cofactors and
catalysts, including Tocopherols, Tocotrienols, CoQ10, Alpha Lipoic Acid, IP6, Squalene, and the rare
but powerful, Gamma Oryzanol. It is a potent source of phytonutrients and antioxidants, with
nutraceutical and physiological benefits that no other food approaches. The nutrients found in
stabilized rice bran have been shown to lower blood glucose, lower cholesterol and triglycerides,
exhibit anti-cancer and anti-tumor activities, burn fat, increase energy, prevent kidney stones, improve
bowel function, relieve joint pain and inflammation, improve eyesight, and enhance beauty!
Anyone who wants to improve or maintain their health would
be wise to take stabilized rice bran every day. There is simply no
better or more comprehensive whole food health supplement on
earth! It tastes great on its own, and can be easily added to rice,
cereals and other foods. A few spoonfuls a day will help keep the
doctor away!

Appendix A
What is In Stabilized Rice Bran?
If it is stabilized WITHOUT high heat or chemicals, rice bran contains:Protein — Stabilized rice bran contains easily digested, hypoallergenic essential amino acids that are
necessary for building human protein. These include Tryptophan, Histidine, Methionine,
Phenylalanine, Threonine, Isoleucine, Lysine, Valine, and Leucine.
Complex Carbohydrates — unlike simple carbohydrates which can add to blood sugar and fat
storage problems, healthy complex carbohydrates like those found in stabilized rice bran have a “low
glycemic index” which means that they don’t cause spikes in your blood sugar. In fact, stabilized rice
bran has been found to help normalize blood sugar.
Fiber — Stabilized rice bran contains soluble and insoluble fibers necessary for optimum digestive
health, blood sugar regulation, lowered cholesterol, and the prevention of diabetes and heart disease.
Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) — Omegas 3, 6 & 9 help to strengthen cellular membranes (so the bad
stays out and the good stays inside cells). They also help with energy production (eliminating fatigue);
transporting oxygen to the cells; removing waste from the cells; regulating hormones; reducing
inflammation, pain and stiffness; reducing LDL “bad” cholesterol & increasing HDL “good”
cholesterol, not to mention, improving your complexion, mood, memory & concentration!
Enzymes — including Glutathione Peroxidase, Methionine Reductase, Polyphenol Oxidase, energy
enhancing, immune boosting CoQ10, Aspartate Amino Transferase Isozyme AAT-1 & AAT-2,
Catalase, and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), which is an especially powerful antioxidant.
Tocotrienols & Tocopherols (Complete Vitamin E family) — Tocols as a complete group are much
more powerful than regular vitamin E. They are great for your cardiovascular system, your immune
system, and your complexion! Stabilized rice bran contains α-Tocopherol, β-Tocopherol, γTocopherol, δ-Tocopherol, αTocotrienol, β-Tocotrienol, γ-Tocotrienol, δ- Tocotrienol, Desmethyltocotrienol, and Didesmethyl tocotrienol.
Phytosterols and Sterolins (phytosterols glucosides) — These are natural phytonutrients with
healthful properties that range from helping to fight free radicals, prevent cancer, reduce blood sugar
and blood lipid levels, lower cholesterol and ease menopausal symptoms. Stabilized rice bran contains
β-Sitosterol, Campesterol, Stigmasterol, Δ5-Avinasterol, Δ7-Stigmastenol, Sterol glucoside, Acylsterol
glucoside
Oligoglycosylsterol,
Gramisterol,
Monoglycosylsterol,
Dimethylsterol,
Cellotetraosylsitosterol, Branosterol, Isofucosterol, Obtusifoliol, Sitostenol, Methylsterol, 28Homosteasteronic acids, β-Amyrin, 28-Homotyphasterol, Citrostadienol, and 6-Deoxycastasterone.
Calcium — which helps build strong bones, teeth and muscles; promotes healthy nervous system; has
a calming effect on the nervous system; helps with proper functioning of the heart, muscles, and
nervous system; and plays a role in maintaining normal blood pressure, regulating blood clotting,
preventing cancers of the digestive tract and decreasing mood swings, food cravings, and the pain,
tenderness and bloating associated with premenstrual syndrome.
Magnesium — which is an essential element for proper functioning of the nervous, muscular and
cardiovascular systems. It also helps with nerve and muscle functioning, helps relieve cramps and
PMS, aids in bone formation, regulates heartbeat and helps to normalize blood pressure.
Page 16 of 23
Potassium — which helps to regulate fluid balance, heart rhythms and blood pressure and helps with
mental function by sending oxygen to the brain. It is required for the proper functioning of the heart,
kidneys, muscles, nerves, and digestive system.
Gamma Oryzanol Complex — this amazing anti-mutagenic group includes Campesterol Transferulate, Cycloartenol Trans-ferulate, Cycloartenol Cis-ferulate, Cycloeucalenol Trans-ferulate,
Cycloeucalenol Cis-ferulate, Stigmasterol Trans-ferulate, 24-Methylenecycloartanol Trans-ferulate,
24-Methylenecycloartanol Cis-ferulate, β-Sitosterol Trans-ferulate, β-Sitosterol Cis-ferulate, βSitostenol Trans-ferulate, β-Sitostenol Cis-ferulate, Stigmasterol Cis-ferulate, Stigmastenol Cisferulate, Campesterol Cis-ferulate, Cycloartanol Trans-ferulate, Cycloartanol Cis-ferulate,
Stigmastenol Trans-ferulate, 24-Methylcholesterol Trans-ferulate, and 24-Methylcholesterol Cisferulate. These help boost immune response, reduce inflammation, increase energy, metabolize
glucose, regulate blood sugar, and more!
Polyphenols — including Ferulic acid, α-Lipoic acid, Methyl ferulate, ρ-Coumaric acid, ρ-Sinapic
acid, Isovitexin, Proanthocyanidins. These have been shown to assist the immune system and to reduce
the risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease.
Metal Chelators — including Magnesium, Manganese, Phosphorous, Potassium and Inositol
Hexaphosphate (IP6). Getting heavy metals helps to ensure that antioxidants don’t “turn to the dark
side” and become pro-oxidized free radicals.
Carotenoids — Very effective free radical scavengers including Lutein, α-Carotene, β-Carotene,
Lycopene, Zeaxanthine, and Crytocyanthine.
B-Vitamins & Vitamin-like substances — including Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Pantothenic acid,
Pyridoxine, Betaine, Dimethyl glycine, Inositol, Biotin, Choline, Folic acid, and Phytates. These can
help prevent cancer and prohibit cholesterol buildup, support adrenal function, calm and maintain the
nervous system, and assist in key metabolic processes.
Polysaccharides — including Cycloartenol-ferulic acid glycoside, Diferulic acid complex, Diferulic
acid-calcium complex, Hemicelluloses, Arabinogalactan, Arabinoxylan, Xyloglucan, Proteoglycan,
Glycoprotein, Arabinofuranoside. These are known to help immune function lower blood pressure,
lower cholesterol, and increase coronary artery capacity.
Phospholipids — including Phosphatidylserine, PhosphatidylCholine, Phosphatidylethanolamine,
Lysophophatidylcholine, Lysophosphatidylethanolamine. Phospholipids helps support the growth and
renewal of cellular membranes, forming an important barrier to filter toxins out. They also act as
cellular antioxidants when free radical “bullets” try to penetrate the cell. Phospholipids are also
thought to prevent depletion of the neurotransmitter choline, improving mental focus, brain function,
and both mental and physical stamina.
