What is Venere Black Rice?
Venere rice is a naturally black coloured, medium-grain rice grown by a small number of farmers in the Po river valley. Venere comes from an exotic seed grown in the past only in China where at first it was grown exclusively for the emperor and his court.
How might Venere Black Rice be beneficial towards my diet?
Venere Black Rice gets its deep, dark colouring from high levels of flavonoids, known as anthocyanins. These pigments are found in the rice’s hull and help to fight harmful free radicals and prevent oxidation. Venere Black Rice is recognised for being a rich source of fibre, Vitamins & Minerals, and essential Amino Acids.
