Recent studies have shown that when brown rice is germinated/sprouted it's already many benefits multiply creating a real super food that is not expensive or a hollow promise; but, instead germinated brown rice has become an answer.... In general; when a grain starts to germinate, enzymes that have been inactive go to work making many changes within the grain. This birth process activates dormant enzymes that are now stimulated to provide nutrients to the growing sprout. This is a remarkable and almost a miraculous result of the germination/sprouting process to the brown rice grain. Major nutrients that increase are Gamma-aminobutryic acid (GABA), dietary fiber, inositol, ferulic acid, tocotrienols, magnesium, potassium, zinc and oryzanol.

    Research indicates that a continuous intake of germinated brown rice promotes the acceleration of brain functionality, preventing headaches, relieving constipation, preventing colon cancer, regulating blood sugar level, preventing heart disease, lowering blood pressure as well as preventing Alzheimers disease. Regular intake also is said to improved sleep cycle, improve the immune system and it also is said to inhibit the development of cancer cells, It might also assist the treatment of anxiety disorders because GABA is also an inhibitory neurotransmitter.

   Germinating brown rice also neutralizes phytic acid found in brown rice. Phytic acid is an inhibitor of nutrient absorption and can be found in all grains, beans and seeds. Neutralizing the phytic acid allows for more absorption of the many nutrients found in germinated brown rice. Another of the reasons we want to get brown rice into our diet is because brown rice contains; among other things, the amino acid GABA, or gamma-aminobutryic acid. GABA is one of the things baseball players take from a needle to heal faster and weightlifters take to loose fat. The GABA contained in brown rice stimulates the production of human growth hormone in a natural and safe; yet, significant way.

There is 10 times more of the amino acid GABA in brown rice than in white rice and there is twice the amount of the amino acid GABA in germinated or sprouted brown rice than in plain brown rice.

   The taste of germinated brown rice is more enjoyable than plain brown rice, as the sugars held captive in the grains jacket are broken down and released. After eating germinated brown rice the feeling in the body is lighter than after eating plain brown rice.

  Germinated or sprouted brown rice would be a great way to help increase your metabolic balance and to lose weight. It would be a great thing to get into your regular diet.

  I've known about the many benefits of eating pre-germinated brown rice for quite sometime but I had to make my own... I did this by putting my brown rice in a hemp sack that I placed in warm water that was just about a 100 degrees F. I had to change the water 4 time during the 22 hours I kept the rice in this water... I don't have to do this any more as now an American Company called Sol Grains does this for me. They take the finest 100% organic brown rice and with great effort and expertise they soak, germinated and dehydrated the rice to produce an exceptionally flavorful pre-germinated/sprouted brown rice that is nutritious and easily digestible.
